Not bad, not great, just good. The film shows the ineffectiveness of the individual against the mob, on both sides of the conflict. Brando is billed as "the wild one" but of course he turns out to be the gentlest and most sensible of the gang. The totemistic trophy he clings to is a great device, a use of symbolism so blatant that it's almost bold. A bit dated (the tough guy behavior of the bikers is laughably corny from today's viewpoint) but quite watchable.
