Not everyone will embrace it, but for me it's the best road film ever made. Some are going to find this film very dull and wonder what there is to admire and respect about it. Others are going to discover all sorts of things that are not actually present in the film itself, but ...( read more)

Beautiful low key, poetic road film with a hint of Antonioni. Warren Oates was gr8. Really captures that loneliness of living on the road. My satisfaction after seeing this film is permanent.

There's no way in hell I could pass final judgement on Two-Lane Blacktop after only one viewing. True, this movie is every bit as... out there as the characters its two stars (James Taylor and Dennis Wilson) play. I imagine this movie got pushed to the wayside as it's not filled ...( read more)

Uneventful, almost forgettable. GTO was the only likable and cool (and damn hot) character - the rest were self-obsessed hippies whose wanton actions frustrated me. For as much talk about built cars, you'd expect more racing action, but it's majorly a road film.

From 1971 is this classic drag-racing film starring James Taylor (yes that James Taylor)and Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys. Also Warren Oates and a very brief glimse of Harry Dean Stanton in a small supporting role. The characters are: The Driver, the Mechanic, the GTO and the...( read more)
