Just a funny trip back to the past with some great classic cars like a Ferrari Daytona Spider and a Ford Cobra. If you can appreciate the freedom of going fast on highways from coast to coast you will enjoy this film. Silly - yes even sometimes stupid but a lot of fun. Some in-jokes if you like cars.

There have been a number of car movies, few any good. The cannonball Run series were based on major stars, not the cars themselves. Gumball Rally is really focued on cars with a clear picture of their strengths and weaknesses. The two real stars of the film are the Ferrari Daytona and the Shelby 427 Cobra. It really comes down to all out fun on the road. The Daytona is still one of the most beautiful cars ever designed. Fast, high top end and a great heart. The Cobra, raw power definately purpose built. There is one scene towards the end where the two cars pull out on the interstate and take off. This is perhaps the only time you see the raw acceleration of the Cobra compared to the Ferrari. Raul Julia's quote as he pulls off the rear view mirror at the start of the race: In Italian racing, what is behind you is not important". Wonderful.Read full review
Wish they still had fun like this now! Fast cars, comedy. Great racing action.

Great Cars, fun movie. Don't take it too seriously , Just enjoy it for what it is. This is a real treat for car buffs everywhere. It is also fun when you look at the gas prices posted at the gas stations in the movie. $0.64 cents per gallon. Yikes I remember those days. Raul Julia is a hoot, and Gary Busey is pretty young. The motorcycle rider is completely nuts. Sit back hang on and enjoy the ride.
Good old fashion fun car flick that brings back memories before Hollywood went CG, and over the top unbelievable race scenes.
