Get ready for high speed action . . . CHiPs is back!!!, July 24, 1999
This movie is great as not only as a sequel to the series, but as a stand-alone movie itself. I was a fan of the series as a kid in the 70's & 80's, and with the introduction of new series' I gradually drifted away from CHiPs in syndication, but CHiPs '99 kind of whetted my apitite to revisit some of the old episodes and "rewatch them for the first time", and it's been a great ride all around.

Awesome Return, August 23, 2000
What else can I say beside wonderful! I used to be a big fan of the show as a kid and as an adult I just loved the new version. Great bikes, lots of action and Ponch at his best. This movie is a wonderful version of the old television series and if it came on tv again, I would watch it. There are some very good scenes. Who wouldn't love to see another movie like that? Jon had some trouble with his position as a Captain and the return of Ponch. It was hard for him to keep defending him. But hey, someone has to keep that guy in line. Loved the flashback bits and it was nice to see that Jon finally got married. Although I would have loved to see more of Sandy. And I loved the helicopter pilot Stormy. Very funny guy.
Ponch comes up with some wacko ideas the entire movie, but the guy is rarely wrong. You got to give him credit for that. He knows no rules, but would you want someone else to watch your back? The music was great. I think of of my favorite scenes was on Judge Judy. It had me laughing out loud. Very well done and great acting job. When Johnny Cochran came on, I was really grinning. LOL
What about those guys aging? Okay, maybe Eric turned grey, but he has lost nothing of his charm. And it's too bad we don't see more of Larry Wilcox these days. They guy is still a terrific actor and you don't notice he has aged almost twenty years.
I would recommend this movie to everyone who used to watch the show. It's an action packed movie, with terrific personal moment. In my eyes, you have everything. Action, adventure, emotion and humor. I would say, grab you bike and go and buy the movie. Do it! It's money very well spent. Excellent!

By A Customer
WELL I LIKE CHIP'S REALLY GREAT. AND I WAS IN KUWAIT, SERVING IN THE ARMY WHEN IT CAME OUT. I JUST FINISHED WATCHING THIS MOVIE AND I THINK IT WAS THE GREATEST COMEBACK OF ALL TIMES. IT INTEGRATES THE TO THE NEW. YOU SEE FASTER, BETTER BIKES, NEW STARS, AND BETTER VIDEO CLIPS TEHN YOU DID FROM THE SERIES, BUT THIS HAS BEEN THE BEST, AND ONLY MOVIE OF CHIP'S. SO I LOVE IT VERY MUCH. AS YOU CAN TELL I AM A GREAT FAN OF CHIPS, SO YOU KNOW YOU WOULD LIKE IT TO.
