I have never understood the critical dogging of this film. What were people expecting to see? It's a low-budget, screwball comedy that is just fun to watch. You could tell that the actors were just having a good time and it helps to make the film that fun to watch. As such, the performances aren't that bad. For example, try to watch Jack Elam in this and picture him in all of those serious, nasty villian roles he had in westerns. Sammy Davis and Dean Martin working together is almost worth the price alone. Their great chemistry is apparent. Frank Sinatra wanted to be in the sequel after seeing them in this. Roger Moore may have only been doing a parody of himself, but I have always wanted to see him do more comedy. He was known for helping to maintain a light-hearted atmosphere during the long filming of the Bond pictures. Also, this is the only one of Jackie Chan's (who actually does race cars) early Hollywood films that shows his talent for mixing martial arts and comedy. Who cares if he doesn't look japanese (which his character is supposed to be). Hollywood wouldn't realize what they had been missing until the success of Rush Hour. Hal Needam (Smokey and the Bandit) was just making a film to entertain, not educate or win oscars. And, it worked. Fast cars, laughs and great looking ladies (Adrienne Barbeau, yow!). I have grown tired of critics reviewing all films under the same guidelines instead of for what they are. I would have given it five stars but it was not quite as laugh-a-minute as some of the works of Blake Edwards, Billy Wilder and Buster Keaton and I would have liked to seen more car stunts.

Chuck Norris won the Camonball Run on Vespa. August 10, 2006

I would say this is the greatest Chuck Norris movie, no wait, the greatest movie of all-time except for one thing. And that is that all Chuck Norris movies are created equal and better then movies like the Godfather, Schlinder's List, Back Door Sluts 9, and Braveheart combined. Chuck Norris is a much better actor then Tom Hanks and Marlon Brando because he knows karate. Hell Chuck Norris invented Karate as well as Judo, Kung Fu, and Hamster style Jap Slapping. Do yourself a favor and buy this movie so you can call yourself a man. And if your a woman buy this movie and pray Chuck Norris comes to your house and gets you pregnant.
