A beguiling, if silly pleasure.

Merged the appeal of Bullitt with that of, say, Zabriskie Point...fast cars and dusty existentialism. [Blu-ray]

A movie about which I can think of almost nothing good to say.

A fairly interesting, but somewhat muddled, road movie starring Newman as an ex-cop who now drives cars from Denver to San Francisco for a living.

Really nothing but a one hundred minute car chase across country, and I loved every minute of it...

A film all but overflowing with the revolting spirit of the oppressed. Bring the noise!

In a time when vacant retreads such as The Fast and the Furious are the problem, Vanishing Point is the answer.

The last quarter of Grindhouse was little more than a love note to this flick's towering excellence.

The woodenness of both direction and Newman's performance becomes increasingly apparent.

Takes full advantage of the subject's existential and mythical undertones without being pretentious, and you certainly get a run for your money, along with a lot of rock music.

The action is almost entirely made up of one man driving a car at maximum speed from Denver to, hopefully, San Francisco.

should be seen as a particularly charged variant of a now extinct genre: the artsy B-movie
