Motorcycle Gang (1994 TV Movie)
5/10
Thank Heaven Gerald McRaney is in it, otherwise I would not go near this

This is the type of movie I would usually avoid and only watched it because of Gerald McRaney. Indeed, it is his acting in the movie which gives it any credibility at all; he is exceptional. After his character's daughter is abducted and raped by a gang of idiots on motorcycles he vows to rescue her, which he does towards the end of the movie. Being an ex serviceman he knows how to take the gang on single handedly (with a little help from his wife) - he does this in fine style but be warned it is very graphic and very bloody - even if the gang deserved exactly what they got. Gerald McRaney is one of THE finest actors ever (imho) and he suits the hero role very well, heck, he can come rescue me anyday! Seriously though, I wish he hadn't been in this, maybe I'm an old romantic at heart but I don't need reminding of the very basal elements in society through the movies. Now I'll have to go watch Gerald McRaney in one of his other movies to take the taste of this one out of my mouth so to speak. I didn't like this at all but that doesn't mean others will too; watch if you must and make up your own minds.

The 5 stars are for Gerald McRaney (only). I admire this incredible man in everything he's ever done (yes, even this) and he has never, to my knowledge, turned in a bad performance - ever, he is such a talented man, a very gifted actor, he even makes the art look easy ... take it from me, it isn't. As I said earlier, Gerald McRaney makes this film bearable because of his can-do, take no nonsense attitude, he is simply the best.
