April 19, 2007This film needs a lot more love. Honestly enjoyable, often exciting, and with dollops of pathos (the near-suicide, eek!). What's not to like? If you like Wacky Races-style antics then there's that too.

They don't make them this well any more. Pixar come close, but none of it's quite as truly joyous as this film.
Cheer up, watch it again. Now, Herbie, now!
