An MMM is any motorcycle in a movie (or TV show or commercial) used in a way that is physically impossible, utterly ridiculous, or just plain dumb.The latest example comes from the new sci-fi action film "Ultraviolet". In its review of the film, MoreTV32.com writes:
When Violet, played by the lithesome Milla Jovovich, is riding a motorcycle while being chased by two police helicopters, and she starts riding the motorcycle UP the SIDE of a skyscraper with the aid of some sort of gravity-bending device... well, it's hardly realistic, but it looks exciting, like "Kill Bill" crossed with Japanese anime.A gravity-bending device? Sounds great. I plan on installing one next week.

At the very least, if a live-action movie features bike stunts that are less believable than what happens in the average anime, it's an MMM.
