i bought this because it had a couple of the jackass lads in its interesting to see how they cope trying to get across the fastest without getting pulled over or arrested a good watch
Gumball 3000, the modern reincarnation of the 70s illegal road rally. This documentary covers the 2005 event, an all US affair from San Francisco to Miami, 3000 miles in 6 days. I don't want to give anything away, it's narrated by Burt Reynolds and your main focus is on the Cuban Brothers who are just slightly madder than the rest of the gumballers. The video is superb, some of the footage is from a less than fantastic source but whoever did the authoring is a hero. The Audio is only two channel but the bass notes from some of the cars managed to shake the room, the engine noises are with the price on their own :) Extras, a wonderful video only montage of the route, Burt Reynolds studio session with all the lines from his voice-over, pictures the route cards the drivers got at each checkpoint telling them where to go next and a couple of interviews with the drivers, all in all, better than most DVDs. So, to sum up, if you like seeing rich people being arrested, fast cars and wild times get this one!Read full review
Never seen Gumball Rally 3000 - The Movie until now! I've been meaning to buy this DVD for a good few years now but never quite got round to it until i randomly searched it the other day and found it for £1.40 No way was someone else gonna take this from me so i made it mine. The cars in the movie are awesome, every exotic car you can think of...even a Koenigsegg which kept breaking down! For £450,000 you'd expect a little better. Only thing that bugged me was there was too music on it when the movie had been edited. Theres a lovely shot of a F50 flying past and you can hear the engine nicely but nowhere near enough of it. All in all, a good purchase, maby not something you can watch regularly but a good one to break out again when you've forgotten what happened!
I've been a fan of the gumball 3000 since it started and have always enjoyed watching the footage of it. When I finally got round to getting the movie I was sure it would be just as good as the home made footage. The film has some big names like Ryan Dunn, Tony Hawk, Jodie Kidd and the Cuban Brothers which make it even funnier. The film starts with the intro to the rally so if you don't know much about it you will know everything by the end. The film has footage of all the different people taking part in the rally from super rich to the dare devils who race down the free way at 180MHP. This film is full of excitement and will leaving you wishing you could take part in the next Gumball rally.
GREAT FUN IF YOU LOVE FAST CARS. NARRATED BY THE ONE AND ONLY BURT REYNOLDS. WATCH AS THE AMERICAN POLICE DO EVERYTHING TO STOP THEM. WWW.GUMBALL3000.COM
