I watched it. I was also disappointed. There were a few good bits though, and the Charger sounded superb. [anorak mode] It was a Dodge Challenger[/anorak mode] First time I'd watched it in years. I'd forgotten just how good and how bad it was at the same time. Good as it was virtually entirely a car chase from start to finish and bad because there really was very little story.

First time id watched it and i thought it was ace.I like `70`s films like that though.Sort of Duel style. I like how simple it was rather than it been filled with curse word cgi or an over complicated and unbelievable storyline. Made a change to see a car being driven in a film without 40 gearchanges a minute and the floors falling out.

I didn't realise I had wrote Charger lol. The storyline was curse word. Worst part for me was when he felt the need to trick the cops into opening their road block for him, yet could have just driven around. Or maybe the ending was the worst bit. He done the cars owner a favour. I wouldn't have wanted that after the kicking he gave it.

I'd hate to be the owner too, he beats it up so bad that it turns into a Camaro. Nobody wants a Camaro if you're expecting a Challenger. It's like buying a Focus RS and ending up with a base spec Corsa.

And in the film the police say "we have reason to believe that its supercharged".

I don't care for Duel either, whilst sort of on the subject. Being a fan of it seems almost a requirement to post on here though. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

btw if you just like the chases out of these films most of them are in the fall guy. They just became stock footage after the films were released and ended up on that. try and catch the chase from the 7ups with roy schneider if you can, pontiacs all the way.

Sometimes it's what not is in a film that counts.

I think they show The Fall Guy on one of the Sky channels once in a while..
Vanishing Point was and still is a great film, the remake a "pants, politically correct (no naughty bits) remake was just terrible! It had that "made to be shown before the 9pm watershed" feel to it..
