4.0 out of 5 stars The low rider is a little higher, December 27, 2006

By 

Clare Quilty (a little pad in hawaii) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sunday Driver (DVD)

Carol Strong's film, with sincerity and without condescension, clearly grasps the somewhat ridiculous nature of the low riding culture of South Central L.A. -- the tricked-out cars that glide so close to the ground they draw sparks; the ornately airbrushed sedans that bounce so high they sometimes crack their springs.

But it also unquestionably understands and conveys the beauty of the automobiles and the people who live for them.

"Sunday Driver" breaks it all down to elements -- the paint, the rims, the hydraulics, the codes, and the individual pride but also the brotherhood that exists among lowriders.

T-birds and Impalas are lovingly photographed and the stories poignantly told over a perfect soundtrack by the JB's, the Temptations, the Miracles and more.

Perhaps most intriguing aspect of the film is its look into the group's uneasy relationship with the cops, a thread that rises to a particularly wry coda (ending, of all places, in Japan).

There are so many car shows and even car channels that "Sunday Driver" on the surface might seem obscure or obsolete, but it's a smart little film that gets in, samples the culture and the stories, then rides off in just under an hour.

These guys really prove the passion behind the lowridin culture. It shows what success can bring with hard work and dedication. I reccomend this video to all lowriders and anybody who may be interested or curious. Lowridin is not just a hobby, it's a way of life. Keep your head up Gangster. You'll be back soon and will build something even better than Santana. -peace

This review is from: Sunday Driver (DVD)

Pretty interesting documentary, lots of colorful characters talk about their love of lowrider car culture and community. I purchased the DVD (after catching part of the movie on TV) mainly for the INCREDIBLE soundtrack. Great marriage of music and imagery here, the producers slam dunked each song selection. Check it out if you have the chance...if you dig soul music or cars you will probably really like this.
