Finally, a documentary about cars worth seeing!

When I first saw that this film was being made, I was quite skeptical. But I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised! The camera work, editing, narration...all top notch! I've been a fan of watching videos of rally's (Fuel Run, Bull Rally, Goldrush, Gumball, etc) but the videos mostly out there are done by amateurs. This is a production done on a professional level and it truly shows! Hope that this production team comes out with more documentaries like this!

More than Adrenaline, Speeding, and Bragging Rights -- A Race to the Finish...and Beyond

My 16-year-old son and I buckled in for this tire melting tour de force not knowing exactly what to expect. A child of the 80s, I knew the schtick of the Reynolds/DeLuise flick, but never knew much of the real story. That all changed in just a skosh over an hour and a half as a compelling story of the Secret Race unfolded. A child of the modern age, but lover of old cars, my son instantly went full-throttle with enthusiasm. His eyes popped with joy as legendary cars of the past rev'd and he glowed with wishful and wistful growls of what could have been if he would have been around to experience it in person. So fun.Weaving past and present as deftly as Alex Roy and David Maher through traffic-laden interstates, Musial, Welles, and Spinelli craft a story that stirs the soul of those who love great stories, great cars, and great human attempts to find out what's achievable...what's alive and living just beyond the horizon.The story isn't about Roy, per se, but he takes center stage in a compelling way, but without robbing the oxygen needed to fuel the staggering pace of the racing and storytelling. Watching the grainy videos and gritty ghosts of the 70s doing the unthinkable and watching Roy poring over spreadsheets, maps, and mechanisms that seem ancient by today's standards, reminds us how far we've come while simultaneously reminding us that we must not take our eyes off of where we must keep going.If that last sentence seems hyperbolic, it is...and that's the point. Living in the comfort of the know is antithetical to the ambitions, actions, and accomplishments that are stirred to life when you have a wanderlust for what others are impassioned to dream about, but intimidated to chase. Roy had the passion and was ridiculously unencumbered by intimidation. Well done, Alex.In this cinematic journey, there are two starting lines, two finish lines, and two teams separated by decades of desiccated inactivity. As the final credits roll, you realize, embrace, and perhaps even idolize the efforts of noble rule-breakers, past, present, and future. Sure, on some level it's just a car movie. But, if you dare to join the race, you'll find that you too have hidden goals, dreams, and ambitions that call out for you to rally your team, build your path, and haul down the road towards the finish line. In the end, it's no secret: let's race.

Must see for fans of Cannon ball, gumball, racing and Alex Roy

Are you captivated by the tough of driving cross country? And perhaps making a race of it? Well this is a time honored tradition and this movie gives us the background as well as the record attempt made by Alex Roy and Dave Maher. This movie was filmed during and after the attempt but have been waiting in the archives for the statues of limitations to expire. Previously we had the book "The Driver" by Ales and I have been waiting all this time for the movie.This movie is all a racing fan can expect. Long roads, police, eccentric drivers, technology and skills.The only thing I miss is some of the details in the book about the technology and modifications as well as the first failed attempt. The attention placed on the history of the cannonball run, US express and the drivers involved was an addition that made it all up.Must see if you are a fan of racing, Gumball and Alex Roy. And for the rest of you. This is a well produced and cut movie that will give you 90 minutes of entertainment and pique your curiosity about the events and people behind it.And also. If you liked the movie and haven't done it Read "The Driver".
