Plot summary

Coy "Cannonball" Buckman and his blazing red Pontiac enter the Trans-America Grand Prix, an underground road race spanning the continent in which there are no rules, no speed limits and no heed for the law. En route, Buckman jockeys with an international ensemble of racers for a $100,000 purse. But there are none more important than Cade Redman, his direct competition for a guaranteed spot on the elite Modern Motors racing team.

Real Cars, Real Explosions, Unreal Martial Arts-A Thrill Ride That Occasionally Stalls

Rev up your engines and buckle up for Cannonball-a turbo-charged, fire-spewing spectacle of car carnage from the glorious pre-CGI era. Yes, folks, back when stuntmen didn't just risk their careers, they risked their limbs-and possibly their mortgages-for your entertainment. Respect where it's due, because these crashes are gloriously real and undeniably explosive. Michael Bay, take notes.Plot-wise, it's not half bad, though its structure feels like a road map where someone spilled coffee. The story zigzags from thrilling to, "Wait, what now?" faster than a careening Dodge Charger. Spot a young Sylvester Stallone in a blink-and-you-miss-it role-before he found the Eye of the Tiger and became, well, Rocky.The direction, while above average, sometimes stalls in key scenes that should be burning rubber. Martial arts moments? Think less Bruce Lee, more "dad at a wedding trying to breakdance." Comedy? More of a sputter than a roar. And some of the acting-wooden enough to double as set pieces.Still, if you love your thrillers messy, chaotic, and unapologetically gritty, Cannonball delivers enough fumes and flames to keep gearheads grinning. It's no Bullitt, but it's also no Speed 2: Cruise Control. And for that, we're grateful.
