Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Art film and road movie collide for Vanishing Point, an existential car chase across the desert in a post Easy Rider America. Barry Newman stars as Kowalski, a taciturn driver who bets that he can drive a new Dodge Challenger from Denver to San Francisco in 15 hours. He loads up on amphetamines and begins his odyssey through the contemporary west while a funky black DJ (Cleavon Little) turns the driver into a folk hero and broadcasts advice on dodging the cops. It's like a counterculture precursor to Smokey and the Bandit, with the road as the last bastion of freedom and the DJ as a combination commentator and mystical guide. The slim plot offers a network of society drop-outs that aid the "last free Man on Earth" (as the DJ describes him) on his obscure but obviously symbolic quest while flashbacks paint Kowalski as a world-weary hero. It doesn't really make much sense, but the amazing car chases and excellent stunt work are stunningly set against the American west, beautifully captured by cinematographer John A. Alonzo. Vanishing Point is most assuredly a product of its time, the heady, anything-goes era of rebellion in the early 1970s. --Sean Axmaker
Description
Thrills, spills and a handful of pills. It all adds up to one of the most spectacular car chases in motion picture history! Barry Newman stars as Kowalski, the last American hero, who set out to prove that he can drive from Denver to San Francisco in just fifteen hours. Along the way, he meets an old prospector (Dean Jagger), a snake worshipper, a nude woman on a motorcycle, and a blind D.J. (Cleavon Little) who "sees" danger ahead in this super-charged, action-packed adventure!

Description

Viggo Mortensen stars as Jimmy Kowalski, a Desert Storm veteran with racing in his blood, dark secrets in his past, a pregnant wife at home, and a vintage 1970 Dodge Hemi Challenger to deliver. But when his wife is suddenly hospitalized, a desperate Kowalski speeds cross-country with police from four states, a vengeful trooper [Steve Railsback of HELTER SKELTER and ED GEIN], and the FBI in hot pursuit. Now with the help of an outspoken radio DJ [Jason Priestley], the man a nation hails as `the last American hero' and the Feds label a `possible terrorist' rockets toward a final roadblock where the speed limit is the floorboard, and life, death and freedom all come together at the VANISHING POINT. Christine Elise [ER], Keith David [ARMAGEDDON] and Peta Wilson [LA FEMME NIKITA] co-star in this explosive Fox-TV remake of the legendary cult classic that fans call `the ultimate car chase movie'!

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Vanshing point.......2007-04-11

Great movie but couldn't figure out what happened to Viggo at the end. Did he die or live?

5 out of 5 stars IT'S AWFUL, SO WHAT!.......2007-04-05

It has plenty of Mopar action in it. I could care less about the two goober stars of this, Viggo & Priestly, and i'm sure i'm not alone. I will buy this for 2 reasons; the Mopars and to a lesser extent, it has Steve Railsback(his groundbreaking role of Charles Manson in the original Helter Skelter from 1976). If it's possible for a newer movie to achieve cult status, this will be it. You'll be seeing these used on Amazon for $100 when production ceases. Pick it up NOW!

1 out of 5 stars Aarrrrgghh! Vanished Point!.......2007-02-27

I saw this on TV when it came out. I'm sure it was a made-for-TV movie, and it should have stopped there. I remember looking forward to seeing it, then was totally bummed out. I wasn't expecting it to be as good as the original, but geeze, it shouldn't be allowed to have the same name or main character. Totally different plot, totally corny. Was this made to be a chick flick? Someone mentioned what's his names blue eye's, and the woman in peril. If I remember he has to drive through Utah to Idaho and plays chicken with the cops. No cop is going to play chicken! Why doesn't he buy a freakin' plane ticket? Instead he tries to kill himself so his wife has nobody. Arrggh!

5 out of 5 stars Haa - THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO.......2006-07-19

All the guys miss the nude shots of the first movie - the chase was excellent, the desert scene was disgusting.

Yeah, this movie version is definitely made for the ladies. Did you ever see such gorgeous blue eyes? They enhance the soul of the part Viggo plays. [Same with Hidalgo].

I love the souped up Hemi's - the muscle cars - but believe it, it takes a man to make the car.

And the gal who plays his wife has a certain beauty about her.
Believe me gals this is definitely a movie for the discerning female. Ignore any comments made by you know whos.

Enjoy the gorgeous scenery, the speed, the swerves, the nasty David Keith, the Indian Reservation part, the Spirit, the Ending, the speculation.

Much more to my likeing than the original movie with its dark side.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - One definitely to watch over again.

1 out of 5 stars I haven't even seen it and I hate it already!.......2006-06-01

I just watched the original Vanishing Point again after having bought the DVD a few years ago. I remember this flick from the mid-to-late 70's when I was a kid and too young to really get it.

Now it makes a lot of sense, after having lived another 30 years myself. And then there's the downright unexplainable, but still cool... take the mystic link between Super Soul and Kowalski! Somehow he knows when Kowalski is listening. Something about his blindness gives him a kind of "second sight". Freaky, but it works somehow.

To think that they could completely jack with that original concept!! There will never be another time like the early 70's. That great classic should just be allowed to rest unmolested.

I like the chick below who rated it one star simply because they sent her the wrong format. She, too, hasn't seen it, but she realizes it deserves only one star! I wish I could give it zero stars! :-D

1 out of 5 stars Major Disappointment.......2000-06-09

As a lover of John Newland's work, I was very eager for the release of this DVD. What a shock I received when I popped it in the player. The sound is terrible, the prints used are worse. And -- biggest sin -- each episode is in the same butchered, 22-minute state we get on commercial TV! Do not waste your money on this disk!

1 out of 5 stars You'd really have to love the show to buy this disc!.......2000-06-04

I looked forward to receiving this disc and was greatly dissapointed! The material used was sliced, chopped-up 16mm prints. The picture is dark and the sound is low. ONE STEP BEYOND was a great show and you'll enjoy seeing the shows again but the poor quality video will take away from that.
