This comedy film brings Burt Reynolds, Sir Roger Moore, Farrah Fawcett, Dom DeLuise, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr. and an all-star cast to the starting line of the ultimate auto race, a madcap cross-country scramble that roars full-speed ahead. This action-comedy was inspired by an actual event: the Cannonball Baker Sea-To-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash, an anything goes, all-stops-out, and very much illegal, competition that has grown to legendary proportions within the last ten years.
This is a silly yet funny and enjoyable movie. It is the kind of silliness that requires the viewer to be in the proper mood for it to be truly appreciated. The film sports a great all-star cast including a very stunningly beautiful Farrah Fawcett. It also includes Roger Moore driving an Aston Martin complete with all the goodies, spoofing his James Bond movies. Watching the out takesthe credits roll indicates that the cast and crew truly had a ball making this flick! Jack Elam, in my opinion though steals the show in his absolutely hilarious turna demented, weird looking, drug addled doctor. I see his performancebeing the funniest character in the movie.
This movie is reminiscent of Smokey and the Bandit: We have Burt Reynolds, a cross-country run, car chases and wrecks, an-all star cast and cheesy funny comedy.<br/><br/>The bonus to The Cannonball Run is in fact the all-star cast which actually "made" this film work so well. They are all very funny in this film. If you like Smokey and the Bandit then you may enjoy The Cannonball Runwell - both are similar and quite fun to watch.<br/><br/>This is a great afternoon "popcorn" film - this is not the kind of film that provokes any deep thought - it's just pure fun comedy. All you have to do is kickback and enjoy! 8.5/10
The Cannonball Run is an abdication of artistic responsibility at the lowest possible level of ambition. In other words, they didn't even care enough to make a good lousy movie.
Yes, the script writer, Brock Yates, was inspired to write the screenplay by a real race that took place four times in the 1970s called Cannonball Baker Sea-To-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash. <br/><br/>Yates himself has a bit part in the moviethe "Organizer", the man who speaks to the racers right before they leave.
