This contemptuously formulated comedy, about four middle-age-crisis-suffering men going on cross country motorcycle road trip, isn’t worth the film stock it was shot on.

John Travolta, William H. Macy, Tim Allen and Martin Lawrence phone in performances as they bike, with or without helmets, toward a roadhouse that will be their Rubicon.

A Hell’s Angels-like motorcycle gang calls our group of hen-pecked guys on the carpet for posing as real bikers with cartoonish Wild Hogs emblems on their jackets.

An inevitable, if profoundly unfunny, fistfight restores a vacuous sense of masculinity and freedom to the four main characters whose more realistic demise would have made for a more satisfying movie.

Rated PG-13. 99 mins.
