From a genuine car enthusiast... this IS the best car movie ever made... and it was made for TV ??? !!!! wow !
Sure, some of the sound tracks are a bit silly, but the intent was there.
My favourite scene ? easy... The real life, real sound, stick shift burnout in the middle of the night !
My favourite quote ? easy... Brian Edison says, "You see, the secret to street racing is a mystery to most people.... if it blows up with a 4 barrel carb, go dual quads. If that blows up, inject it"
Jenny asks, "how far" ?
Brian replies, "Till it's an automatic.... which is boring".
The fact is, a stick shift IS faster, but that's the best TV gear head lines I've ever heard !
The movie is timeless, and it's unlikely that it will ever be out done.
A big thank you to ABC, for going out on a limb, and making this.
The second worst movie I have ever seen ( The Shape of Water of course, being the worst of all time ).
INCREDIBLY childish, playing WAY down to the entire audience. Despertately tries to mesmerize with big lights, flash, and super "action sequences".... grossly over emphasized by the typical modern movie thunderous bangs and crashes.
Quite frankly, sitting through it, was torture.
That sums it up. Yes, fast paced, but I don't believe it has a convoluted plot. Definitely have to pay attention though !
