5.0 out of 5 stars The Fast and The Furious(The Real Deal,Original none of that Riceboy stuff), July 20, 2011

This was before the Corvette(the Best,America's Sportscar) was given a V8 and made proper, So you will be seeing the Jaguar as the star of the movie,a Nice little car but not my scene,plenty of Racing action from the "Sportscar" Crowd so no hot rodding,good story but a bit dull,the plus is all the cars racing Especially the Allards! Allards were Caddy Powered(Some-those are my favorites),this was Way before a Puny little Honda or Ugly Scion or RWD Nissan was the car of choice sadly for My generation.

4.0 out of 5 stars But it's GOOD cheese..., December 3, 2010

Okay, so sometimes you think a Roger Corman production is generally a sign of cheesy or just plain weird. Well, in the case of this film, we actually have some quality actors and some generally well written dialogue.

Yes, there are improbable situations, but remember, it's Roger Corman. Yet, in watching this film, I found myself actually enjoying the interplay between Dorothy Malone and John Ireland, both of whom are very good actors. Yes, there was some groan moments. And the story is predictable. But that's not always a bad thing.

John Ireland co-directed, which is why he's involved (Corman couldn't afford his fees otherwise!). And the direction is quite good for this kind of film. I also felt some of the dialogue was fairly natural, too.

Hey, just forget the intellectual and sit back and enjoy the film. No bad language, a little suggestive commentary, a few good zingers, too (one by the announcer at the race that was quite amusing). It isn't all that long and it has some nice race footage, given the budget.

Great old B&W movie for those who like old sports cars, especially Jags of the XK-120 vintage. Good footage of races with Jaguars, Triumphs, MG TDs, Austin Healeys, Allards, and even a Nash-Healy.
