1.0 out of 5 stars What a waste of money, October 3, 2003

J. Griffin (Fairfield, CT USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Making of "Grand Prix" (DVD)

I bought this DVD expecting a program similar to the the one shown on Speed channel. Instead you get an 80 minute DVD of which, only about 15 minutes is devoted to Grand Prix. The remainding "filler" material contains incomplete film biogrophies of James Garner + Eva Marie Saint among other useless features. Also contained is extremely graphic footage of a burned driver being literally pulled from a car. For this reason alone (and there are many others) I'll be throwing this DVD in the garbage.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is a Joke!, March 23, 2004

Jazz Hermit (Tucson, AZ United States) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Making of "Grand Prix" (DVD)

Basically what you have here is a short and not all that informative film on the making of "Grand Prix" followed by two biographies which consisted mainly of a bunch of theactrical trailers and narration. The racing documentaries at the end were old newsreel clips.

I can't believe that anyone thought this was a worthy product.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT WASTE YOU MONEY, December 23, 2003

John Gianelli (Prunedale, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Making of "Grand Prix" (DVD)

This is absolutely worthless! I can only echo the comments of others. I fast forwarded through it once and threw it in the trash.

Can I rate it as a ZERO?
