 Gumball Rally November 3, 2008
Love this movie! Great race across the country will funny lines and great action. Love the cars in this movie. Very entertaining and fun.
always a joy October 27, 2008
Who doesn't like a good roadtrip story? Gumball Rally is that, and so much more: a roadtrip on speed, if you'll pardon the awful pun. This movie isn't deep or meaningful or heavy-handed; this movie is pure, unadulterated fun from beginning to end. It's the original definition of "Wacky Hijinks." And I don't even care about cars, but I loved ogling the top-notch machines they put together for this baby (and for anyone who knows the story behind the movie's production, the use of the Jaguar gag is priceless). Raul Julia in particular is brilliant as the Italian race-car driver Franco. Two thumbs up, and five stars. I finally ordered my own copy of the DVD, and I can't wait to get it and watch it all over again!

Item was the exact movie I wanted. However the case the DVD came in was broken when I opened it. Since it was a gift, I did not have time to return it and get a new one. Ask the shipping department to use a little more care in packaging items.

I hadn't seen this movie since the 70s but had thought about it many times and deceided to order it. It was just as funny as when I had seen it many years ago, a real classic.

I first saw "The Gumball Rally" over twenty years ago and it's "First Rule of Italian Driving" was so memoriable that I've often quoted it to my wife, whenever she was being tailgated while driving. So, when I found that this movie had been released on DVD, I treated myself and bought it.
Based on a legendary road race, the characters try to drive non-stop from New York, NY to Long Beach, CA to see who can get there first.
I was pleased to find that the DVD image was sharp and clear and that the car engine sound has been enhanced beyond that which was available in movies of 1976 vintage. Well written, with racing drama and comedy mixed together that will endear the viewer to the characters.
A "must have" for any car racing fan.
