One of the better "car movies" around. Not much else to it.

I loved the ambivalence around the protagonists' motivations. Maybe the story is almost non-existent, but the pervasive 70's feeling makes up for a lot.

The car chases are pretty darn awesome and great fun. There are also quite a few encounters to enjoy between Kowalski and some folk of the times. It isn't quite Easy Rider in that regard - Easy Rider feels like a time capsule whereas this feels a bit dated and hokey - but the attempt still leads to some entertaining and interesting encounters. The mixture of the chasing and Kowalski's interactions isn't seamless and the film does drag noticably at its half way point but its still good fun.

Difficult to see why this is rated so highly. A string of cliches, bad acting, paper-thin plot and average-at-best cinematography doesn't add up to a classic, cult or otherwise.

A classical rebellious movie with moderately little quantity of drugs involved. Nicely directed and acted, and I liked editing a lot. A naked lady on a bike was sweetly tanned.

This is a weird movie with some really fun car chases. Most of the plot of the movie is told with flashbacks. This movie is dated but I had a good time watching it.

Man eats handful of drugs and bets his dealer he can drive from Denver to San Fransisco in 15 hours. I have to be honest: For a minute there, I actually thought that this was gonna be 90 minutes of high speed cross country pursuit with sweet, sweet music on the side. But it looses some of it's pace ones things move into the dessert.

I found this compelling and entertaining, with Newman an engaging anti-hero. I enjoyed Cleavon Little's performance as well - I don't recall seeing him in anything else apart from Blazing Saddles. While the film arguably has little going on apart from a guy driving a cool car across the country, meeting some weirdos along the way, there is a lot to like here, and is another effective filmic reminder that the carefree 60s were gone.

I was actually surprised by the story that this movie had and the way it ended. It was kind of a thinker. but it was also a simple story which really helped. Amazing car chase scenes, which I will watch again just for that alone. Very good acting and I loved seeing Cleavon Little again. You don't nearly get too many chances to see his movies that much anymore.

The plot is incredibly flimsy, and basically serves as a vehicle to showcase some good car chases and naked boobs. Weak, and a little juvenile, but entertaining in places. I'll admit that is a cool car.

Delivering a Dodge Challenger from Colorado to San Francisco turns into a vigilante race against cops for Kowalski (Newman), various meetings with freaks, hippies, other road detritus and a fine contemporary soundtrack provides a post-60s Manson-esque tingue to the proceedings and landscapes. A succinct plot, dialogue and conclusion to the film mark it out as a classic in the \"Road Movie\" genre.
