Memorable, crazy movie
Let's see... dude wants a sweet Lambo, 'cause like Lamborghini is like too many syls, y'know?dude wants to marry totally hawt chick dude gets into bogus trouble, did NAWT see that coming, fer sher.*sigh*This movie proves that great writing talent is not hereditary. Compare Mathesons father and son yourself.George Newbern is sexy but wasted in this. I kept wanting to slap some sense into his character.Anthony Geary, wasted in yet another oddball role.Nobody to root for. Skip this one.
this is one of the great movies of the '80's. travis and stephi will get married in a few days but before travis gets married he wants to sow his wild oates by going to the big city (dallas) and buying an "imitation lamborghini". at the dealership he meets sex vixen sales rep jonni tigersmith and she convinces him to buy all the options but the extended warranty. once he drives off the lot the cars goes ballistics and conks out. all the while he's trying to get the dealership to repair his lemon but no extended warranty means no service. so he and jonni team up with the recently fired chief mechanic to break out another car from the dealership firebomb it and race the crooked manager in a chase scene. back in his home town stephi is still waiting on word on when he's supposed to return so they can get married...you can't take this movie to seriously, it stacks up great to other great movies from the '80's and '90's better off dead, one crazy summer, men at work, the chase, buffy the vampire slayer, i'm gonna get you sucka, mannequin, the first and maybe the second police academy, etc.
Well I'm not living in Arizona... though my IQ exceeds the room temperature.I think it is a matter of Your own preferences if You like this film or if You don't. Sure, this film is not comparable to films like Titanic, Gladiator, Star Wars or something else like that.In my opinion this is a real good piece of entertainment in the way it has been done in the eighties... You can damn it or love it.I would say this film is a road movie, surely the story is somehow strange but nevertheless funny.At least I would say You could take a look at it if You like cars like the Lamborghini Countach and if You can understand what it's able to do with a young man.
I saw this about 10 years ago ... but really like it. Here's what I remember of the movie: A young man travels a long distance to buy an expensive sports car a few days before his wedding. His new car has problems and he is stranded. He trys to get the car fixed but finds out because he didn't buy an "extended warranty" there is no warranty on the car and he has bought a worthless lemon.He sets out to get even with the dealership. Along the way he meets a beautiful woman. He tries to buy a bottle of Dom Perignon Champagne because she tells him it makes her wild. He gets robbed at the liquor store when trying to buy the champagne. The crooks also steal his champagne. Movie is very funny, strange, and entertaining.
