Well-known stars are all at sea in this comedy/disaster extravaganza, which seems to have begun as a joke rather than a script.

Stars' home movie, with Burt Reynolds and the gang having a terrific time with the camera and each other. Looks like... read more on Time Out

What more can I say
Bloody marvellous !!!
Give me more Captain Chaos, the only gripe I have is the out-takes at the end should have been included in a Bonus section, but besides that it was WONDERFUL.
Give me Canonball Run II -

Fastastic array of stars & cars
If you love classic cars...then you will love this film. I first fell in love with the Lamborghini Countash after watching this film...some 15 years ago...and the bug still has not left. There is also a Ferrari 308GTB and many more. The best part of the film is the starting sequence, which lasts for about 7 minutes, and includes the finest cop & Lambo chase ever! The main film is funny and jam-packed with tongue in cheak & slapstick humor from some of the finest actors of their day: Burt Reynolds, Sammy Davies Jnr, Roger Moore...much better than the sequel!

A very funny film
I watched this years ago.
My favourite character has got to be Roger Moore.
The sheikh made me laugh.
I didn't realise that the former Mrs Mick Jagger was in the film.

Captain Chaos - wot a guy!!!
nice to see the film again after so many years. captain chaos (who ever thought of introducing him?) was fab and had us giggling away...
burt reynolds, nice bloke and those two were a great combination. a great old movie! -
If your a car wizard you'll love this race and film buffs will love the way a few stars got together and had some fun sad to see how Dean martin had looked ill in this film HIM the hero's of all hero's and Jack Elam has the alcoholic doctor is a treat it's not a oscar nomination but a lot of fun to watch

A classic comedy movie boasting an all star cast that will most likely never be equalled again. Great performances and action. I particularly enjoy the credits with the blooper reel - the first of it's kind for movies.

Who needs the Fast and the Furious???!
I rented this by mistake, I was actually after Death Race 2000.
However, it was a good lighthearted film. What more can I say? -
A classic!
It was so good to see this classic film again. They don't make them as good this anymore. shame the movie is a short one though. Ace peformance from burt renolds (oops can't spell) he's got to be the king of the fun road movies. a fun ride across america, top marks!!!
