A young car thief (Chad McQueen) is caught stealing a car and blackmailed by a crime boss (Jan-Michael Vincent) into being the specialist for a high-roller repo operation. He soon finds himself teamed up with a Courtney Cox look-alike (Roxana Zal) and being pressured by two crime syndicates, with a certain very special Corvette in question. His answer is to play both sides of the fence and pit the two groups against each other while trying to survive himself. There"s not much to recommend the performances or direction of this movie, with a distinctly made-for-cable style and Michael Madsen as a made man (again!) in a "gimme my check" performance. However, there are plenty of car chases, surprisingly slick camera techniques, and loads of action, plus Julie Strain in all 6"1" of her silicone-enhanced glory. Plus, isn"t there a sour-grapes kind of thrill in seeing a $40,000 Porsche coupe reduced to scrap metal? Hey, with a cast that includes McQueen, Vincent, Corey Feldman, and Dom DeLuise, what did you expect, The French Connection? For those who can appreciate the charms of a distinctly B movie action picture, there"s plenty to like here. Note Vincent"s mangled features; he was in a car wreck days before filming, and when his sleeve rides up an inch or two, it"s easy to see the hospital ID band on his wrist! That"s dedication! --Jerry Renshaw
