Biker Boyz
The Players: Laurence Fishburne, Derek Luke, Tyson Beckford, Lisa Bonet, Brendan Fehr, Kadeem Hardison, Djimon Hounsou, Orlando Jones, Kid Rock, Eriq La Salle, Larenz Tate; directed by Reggie Rock Bythewood (debut)
The Skinny: Manuel Galloway (Fishburne) is the president of an all African-American motorcycle club whose members wear suits and ties by day, leather jackets and helmets on the weekend. The story focuses on Manuel as he tries to retain his championship title at an annual drag-racing event.
The Bottom Line: Sounds deliciously B-movie, especially with Kid Rock sharing the screen with Fishburne in the latter’s first wide release since The Matrix. (How on earth did Brendan Fehr get cast in this flick?!) And we love the casting of ’80s faves Hardison and Bonet, both of A Different World.
Opens: Jan. 31
