"Critics felt that Cannonball Run casted a bevy of famous faces as its wacky racers but forgets to give them characters to play, resulting in 90 dull minutes that feel like a marathon. My thoughts: It has it’s moments, but it’s not actually all that funny. If you liked it great, but I didn’t really love all that much."

" After Burt Reynolds starting cashing in his first fast car franchise of Smokey and The Bandit, he followed it up with the Cannonball Ball series. While I personally don't feel that CB is as good as S&tB, for its time, these cross-country-race films were the standard fare of the summer season back in the late 70's and early 80's. So maybe, having this movie on the list is due to a case of childhood nostalgia more than anything else, but if you kids wanna see what we old-timers watched back "
