5.0 out of 5 stars agree: the coolest movie ever that nobody's seen, December 27, 2001

This review is from: Roadracers [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Even if this movie was made for TV it should have been released for the big screen. As it is nobody seems to know this gem. Insanely great music, Johnny Reno's My Mistake alone worth the price of the tape. Great characters like the Nixer and Dude. This movie has major cult potential if only people knew about it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great JD Hommage - Nonstop Fun, December 3, 2001

This review is from: Roadracers [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have seen this movie more than ten times and I never tire of watching it. It's got everything: humor, action, romance, Blaise Pascal's pensees (remember Nixer's French Fry/Human Condition analogy), and most of all, red hot rock and roll music. Rodriguez's films were lost on me after El Mariachi, but this little gem I cannot praise highly enough. Anyone looking for the songs from the film, check with Norton Records (their 1980s re-issue covers are all over Dude's garage).

5.0 out of 5 stars Very cool stuff, November 21, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Roadracers [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Robert Rodriguez hits every corner with this ultra-cool sendup of '50's rebel movies. Cheap without looking cheap (except where Rodriguez intended it), this film is alternately chilling and hilarous. You can never tell when or where some totally outrageous sight-gag or outlandish bit of sarcasm will turn up, even at the most "serious" moments. Truly off-the-wall.
