You have to love a movie where a car gets title billing. [30 Nov 2000, p.F16]

A lot of cinematic ineptitude and moral turpitude can be forgiven in the final 40 minutes, when Halicki redeems his movie by staging one of the greatest car chase scenes in history -- one without much, if any, fakery. [01 Dec 2000, p.8E]

I absolutely love this movie! Its car chase is, in my opinion, one of the greatest. While the other parts of the movie do weigh it down, the sheer greatness of the car chase boosts it to a status of impeccability.

The HD remaster is great, especially when paired with a good speaker system. Brings out the heavenly car sounds. The famous 40 minute chase has its high points and low points, but it's a fantastic showcase of the durability of golden age cars. The main car, the Mustang "Eleanor", survives the movie after the insane chase it goes through and still works decades later, as shown in a clip during credits, which is apparently from 2000!

Amateurish, badly acted and shot on the cheap (many sequences don't even have sync sound), this cult item features a 40-minute car chase (almost half the film's running time) that's nothing short of breathtaking, particularly in light of the obvious budgetary constraints.

The wealth of sketched-in technical detail is fairly engrossing, and the energy of this Halicki production (he also wrote, directed, stars and supplied the vehicles) is arresting. It's a pity that it had to descend into such routine carnage.
