User Review - 8/10 by Senor CI remember watching this on tv in the 70s when I was a kid - 4 stars for the memories!
User Review - 6/10 by Private UI was born too late to actually experience any of the Evel Knievel phenomena while it was happening. But I did inherit some of the related toys and a whole bunch of comic books about him. Later on as an adult I even ended up owning the Evel Knievel arcade game (Stunt Cycle). But I never actually knew much anything about Evel himself. I got my copy of this film on DVD. It was inside the mega compilation entitled 50 Movie All Star Collection. Basically it is a box of double sided DVDs with two films on each side, each of the movies star at least one person who was A-list at one time. I picked the Evel Knievel as the first movie I watched out of the collection (it also nicely shares a disc side with another stuntman movie called "Stunts"). Body count: 1. An aging rodeo star dies when he falls off a bull. Evel himself also falls off his motorcycle close to ten times, but he never actually dies. He does apparently break countless bones, and yet is still able to get back on his motorcycle and ride without any casts on any of them. Plot Outline: This movie only has the thinnest bit of plot. It largely consists of Evel trying to jump nineteen cars, and having flashbacks of completely implausible events. This movie is what would happen if you let a 13 year old boy outline the plot of Evel's life with no knowledge of him other than his motorcycle jumping, and then you let William Shatner write it. The first completely improbable event in movie occurs when Evel is just a boy. He is sitting there playing with his yoyo in his home town of Butte, Montana when a car drives up and starts honking, the car then falls through the ground and basically into the center of the earth. This was part of a bit about how Butte is full of holes. I'll skip the joke about the giant Butte Hole, as I feel the audience here is far too sophisticated for that sort of humor. The next completely improbable thing to happen is where Evel walks into a bar, gets everyone to come outside, and proceeds to rob the safe in a sporting goods store using a clever plot that redirects the police elsewhere and makes him look like a hero. What he does is breaks in the store through an upstairs window, comes downstairs and unlocks the door, setting off the alarm. Then when the police comes everyone acts like they are waiting for the perp to come out. Evel volunteers to help the police officer, he borrows a gun and they go inside through separate entrances. Evel uses his gun to shoot open the safe, and the townspeople make the officer think that the perp ran out the front door. Evel then distributes twenty dollar bills amongst the masses. Later a younger looking Evel meets his future wife. She is in high school and he is most certainly not. I cannot find a birthdate for Linda Bork anywhere, so I am not sure how wide the age gap actually was. He appears to have transformed from smooth criminal into motorcycle thug. He takes her for a ride, tries and fails to outrun the police. In jail he picks up his nickname. He later goes to her college during her first semester (once she goes away for college) and kidnaps her from the dorm. They are then married. Later still Evel decides to rob the City Hall for the tax money using dynamite as a weapon. For a completely unexplained reason he cuts the town banker in for fifty percent. These criminal bits never seem to be fully explained, they don't mesh at all with the rest of the movie, and don't seem to be mentioned in any other biographies about him. Everything he actually was doing for money in the early days was completely ignored. Eventually Evel successfully makes his nineteen car jump (I could do twenty-seven busses on his video game) and the movie ends with a bit about him wanting to jump the Grand Canyon. Fun Quotes! The Evel they presented in this movie absolutely loved to give long flowing speeches that were poorly written. He gave Shatner-esque speeches all the time, and had a real dislike for the film Easy Rider. * "A Roman general in the time of Caesar had a motto - "If it is possible, it is done. If it is impossible... it will be done." And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what I live by. " - Evel Knievel * "Ladies and gentlemen, you have no idea how good it makes me feel to be here today. It is truly an honor to risk my life for you. An honor. Before I jump this motorcycle over these 19 cars - and I want you to know there's not a Volkswagen or a Datsun in the row - before I sail cleanly over that last truck, I want to tell you that last night a kid came up to me and he said, "Mr. Knievel, are you crazy? That jump you're going to make is impossible, but I already have my tickets because I want to see you splatter." That's right, that's what he said. And I told that boy last night that nothing is impossible. " - Evel Knievel * I don't like a lot of these weirdos you see on motorcycles these days. They give biking a bad name. I don't need to get high, I am high all the time. - Evel Knievel
User Review - 4/10 by Simon WIt is only the performance of the charismatic George Hamilton that makes this watchable. Even the actual footage of Knievel is too poor to be of any substantial merit. The portrayal of Knievel's criminal activities and antisocial behaviour as boyish whimsy is a bit hard to swallow, and the score/music is nothing short of excruciating. But it does have its moments.
User Review - 2/10 by Huw GSay what you will about the man, but he sure was popular enough to be in many types of media at the time. Evel Knieval is, more or less, a biopic on the legendary daredevil. As insane and nutty as his life was, the film tries to come close to that but doesn't really reach the heights of craziness that you would hope. There are certainly some sections in there that try, such as Knieval screaming at a nurse about getting a lead apron before taking x-rays, or when he rides around the hospital on his motorcycle, in his underwear AND with a broken leg while all of the doctors and nurses look on. The film tries to paint the the portrait of the man, but it never really comes off as all that interesting. George Hamilton does an OK job with the role, but overall, the movie just fails to intrigue viewers with any entertainment value at all.
