Major Actors Embarrassing Themselves
13 October 2012
Burt Reynolds, Dom DeLuise, Farrah Fawcett, Roger Moore, Sammy Davis, Jr., and other major actors gather in a movie as competitors in an illegal car race across the country, based on a real-life cross-country car race that happened during the 1970's. Sounds like fun? Ah, if only it were. Mostly it's just silly.

There are a few amusing bits, namely a car crashing into a roomful of hippies attending an anti-automobile meeting, or Jackie Chan continuing to fight a bunch of interfering bikers while his co-driver says, "Hurry up, dummy, we are losing the race!" But basically there is surprisingly little car action and a lot of scenes where the racers stop and interact in scenes which are supposed to amuse and often don't. There is also surprisingly little sexuality beyond cleavage shots, either. Best to avoid this sorry mess.
