No history, no reviews of classic bikes, no interviews with the people who made the original cafe racers? Seems a little like it chose the wrong title, not that it didn't remain true to the title.

I found myself really enjoying the movie. Sure, this movie may not be representative of most people's daily lives (I mean, how often do you get to crown "Miss Hell on Wheels"?) and some may even suggest that there isn't a core theme but...that's life. Real life is bits and pieces of our daily activities that eventually come together to form our experiences...in this case, the experience of Meatball in his shop, playing with his band and ridin' with his buddies. I think there is a universal appeal to this movie: it's fun and it has a lot to offer. I thought Brittown really stayed true to the title, which is an emphasis on British bikes and culture.

I have to admit, it wasn't exactly what I expected and it is a lot more accurate picture of a real bike shop than anything you see on the average Discovery chopper show and that's a good thing, but if you were expecting a heavy emphasis on British bikes, you might come away disappointed.
