When his wife goes into a troubled labor while he is on the road over miles away James Kowalski, a former race-car driver and Army Ranger, attempts to elude police while trying to get home. After numerous chases, he turns into a aboriginal American reservation and reflects on his life, and his wife.
He then heads off to break through an impenetrable police and F. Did you know Edit. Trivia Though the filmmakers originally wanted to use actual Hemi Challengers to make the movie, when they discovered how expensive they are, they used Challengers with Hemi nameplates as a more cost-effective alternative.
The Hemi engine shown in the film was actually inside a Charger. Goofs Interior shots of the Challenger at various times through out the movie show different dash designs. Early in the movie, we see a standard 3-spoke wheel with the 5-hole standard gauger cluster. Later, we see a Rallye gauger cluster with a Rim-Blow style wheel. These items swap back and forth until the end of the movie when once again, we see the Rallye Speedometer at mph.
Quotes The Voice : When we are all criminals, who is free? Connections Remake of Vanishing Point User reviews 40 Review. Top review. Simply Unnecessary. I'll start by stating that I have not seen the original "Vanishing Point", yet. I only picked this movie up from the library because the title stood out after I had remembered it mentioned several times in "Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof", and it was the only copy there.

Movies like Death Proof and Gone in 60 Seconds have amazing car chases, with lots of crashes, side by side collisions, all the fun stuff.
This film has some decent car chase sequences but they are split apart too many times to make way for the drama that it really tarnishes the adrenaline rush they should be evoking. Not only that but they are not spectacular.
The first few are a bit of a rush because you he has his "mission" and he means to fulfill it. But after a while, with all the stops and drama, the action not only feels less engaging or tense but the action itself feels a little tired, as in the stunts and speedy feeling become less and less powerful and amazing.
The story was simple but with all the "hero" messages and religion "advertising" it started to feel too contrived and mixed up. Again I have not seen the original something I will get on top of ASAP , so I can't decided for myself how it holds up but my experience with this film has strengthened my powers of clairvoyance and they say: "It doesn't Details Edit.
