| Los Angeles TimesSusan KingThe wealth of sketched-in technical detail is fairly engrossing, and the energy of this Halicki production (he also wrote, directed, stars and supplied the vehicles) is arresting. It's a pity that it had to descend into such routine carnage. |
| TV Guide MagazineMaitland McDonaghAmateurish, badly acted and shot on the cheap (many sequences don't even have sync sound), this cult item features a 40-minute car chase (almost half the film's running time) that's nothing short of breathtaking, particularly in light of the obvious budgetary constraints. |
| User ReviewAmadeusEThe HD remaster is great, especially when paired with a good speaker system. Brings out the heavenly car sounds. The famous 40 minute chase has its high points and low points, but it's a fantastic showcase of the durability of golden age cars. |
