Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)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.
