User Reviews

Great cars, interesting storyline and wonderful acting.

I saw this film in Germany and I thought it was great. I copied it, the problem is, it was in the PAL system. I had a multi-system TV but is now "Kaput." I have watched this film many times and I think the story is really clever, no sex scenes, no violence, you know a story that would be boring in the States! I thought it was quite enjoyable. I never saw such wonderful autos in my life, the Porsch's and the Monteverde were fantastic. It has so many interesting turns in the plot, just when you think everything is clear, something else crops up. The scene where he catches the auto thief is priceless. He tells the thief what special equipment is on board, while the thief is making a pitch to sell it to a buyer!

I recommend this film without reservation, see it if you get a chance!
