I read about this movie many years ago, and was delighted to be able to order it. For car fans, auto industry followers, and even noir afficionados, it's a must-have.

The early Sixties skinny-tie styles are perfect period, and the strains as the Japanese auto industry heaves itself mightily into competition with the rest of the world ring true. Plus it's just way fun to watch.

Totally worth it.

Very good movie. If you are looking to get into 60-70's Japanese Cinema, or if you are already a fan, this is the perfect movie. What could be a better backdrop for a thrilling drama than the cut-throat automotive industry of Japan in the 1960's.

Black Test Car is parked in a very good spot within 60's Japanese Cinema, right between the simple and entertaining but intellectually shallow monster and yakuza movies, and the complex and sophisticated yet sometimes lofty and sleepy art movies of the time. It has action, drama, plot twists, and intriguing characters and emotion. Can't really say much more. Don't miss it.

Corporate spys, and such, all as vicious and real today, as potrayed in the film. Great movie, and the extras are good too.This is a fun movie, that can't be paused or stopped.
