Just saw the movie "Premium Rush" and it was awesome.

Fixed gear, steel frame and no brakes..... Wilee

The movie lives up to its name "Premium Rush". Packed up with action
packed sequences and thrill rides. The storyline has some scope for
improvement though. The camera man has done his job well showing the
right angles at the right time to capture the thrill ride on the busy
streets of Manhattan. Although i might add Michael Shannon did not do justice to his bad cop
role.

The fast paced of the movie keeps you on the edge of your seats. It shows 2
hours on a bad work day in the life of Wilee, when he picks up a parcel
he should not have. There are some flashback in between to fill up the
gaps in the story. 

The thing i like the most, was the way the Wilee maps up his route from
the busy traffic. Its like in the movie 'Next' but with no foresight
power and only his biking intuitions to depend upon. 

In all a great movie, a must watch for all bikers.

You may want to watch the movie with your biker friends to make it even more fun.

I'm too keen on riding a fixie like that. A local steel frame hawk can be converted,what say? Though the tires will be run out sooner  ;-)

T'was simply amazing to see his control w/o the brakes.

Where the trail ends would be awesome!

Im surprised nobody mentioned 'Life Cycles'.

Other favourites of mine are Seasons and ROAM by The Collective. Gorgeous cinematography (not to mention rad riding).

I liked the story since it was fairly simple and not over complicated. Just perfect. 

But some of the stunts were plain unrealistic.
