Movie Reviews

Blu-ray.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfTake it as pure escapism executed by giddy performers, and it's passable entertainment. Otherwise, it's a rough cross-country ride of indulgence and automobile mayhem, perhaps best suited for a Saturday morning cartoon.
eFilmCritic.com - 8/10 by Scott WeinbergBad stuff, but manages to be fun bad. (Forget the sequel; that's like torture.)
EmanuelLevy.Com - 8/10 by Emanuel LevyHarmless entertainment at its most commercial and least artistic, offering some fun spotting the stars in cameos
FulvueDrive-in.com - 6/10 by Chuck O'LearyAmiable, lightweight fun. Captain Chaos saves the day.
Empire Magazine - 6/10 by Ian NathanWhat saves the movie is its relaxed sense of self-awareness. Reynolds all but winks at the audience with his collection of Dick Dastardly sneaks and dodges, but holds onto that winning, hangdog warmth that got him to the top of the pile in the seventies.
The New York Times - 6/10 by Vincent CanbyThe highway is alive with the sound of a loud musical score, spectacular car crashes, pursuits, sudden breakdowns and jokes, practical and impractical. Some of it is ingenious, and all of it is breathless...The Cannonball Run is inoffensive and sometimes funny. Because there are only a limited number of variations that can be worked out on this same old highway race, don't bother to see it unless you're already hooked on the genre.
Patrick Nabarro - 6/10 by PJ NabarroCannonball Run exists somewhere in between being a last bastion of an 'old boys' Hollywood comedy, versus offering a wry send-up of those values.
Filmcritic.com - 5/10 by Eric Meyersonevokes another age before The Fast and the Furious and NASCAR replaced the fun in racing with, respectively, death and science
Common Sense Media - 4/10 by Renee SchonfeldStunts, stereotypes, and silliness in beer-fueled car race.
Chicago Tribune - 4/10 by Gene SiskelWith a plot stolen from THE GUMBALL RALLY (1976) and CANNONBALL (1976), this wholly derivative car-chase movie provides a flimsy excuse for good ol' boy Burt Reynolds to cavort on-screen with a cast that's chock-full of familiar faces.
