🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its humor on the clash between staid wealth and the chaotic thrill of the race track. It relies on relentless automotive chases and physical gags to propel its simple romantic premise forward at a breakneck pace.

Those who tire of overly complicated plots will find joy in this pure, energetic spectacle of ambition and absurdity. What lingers after the final reel is the sheer, infectious joy of motion. — MovieFinder Editorial
