Definitely go see it.
There were some good parts. I will definitely buy the
DVD. I may even watch it again onthe big screen.
It's basically cut like an MTV video, it jumps camera
angles every couple of seconds, this gets annoying.
For some reason, they mask out nearly all of the
engine sounds with rock-music. They apparently didn't
get it that the engine noise is the music.
Remind me never to use the same plastic surgeon as
Burt Reynolds. His facial skin looks stretched like
he's in a space shuttle launch. Burt isn't too bad as
the Frank Williams character, hiring and firing
drivers at a moments notice, just as the real FW does.
I feel lucky that I'm the sole owner/driver of my own
autox team and I don't have to compete for a seat :)
