Used Cars, the 1980 film by director Robert Zemeckis, gives no indication of things to come in his career (Back to the Future, Contact, Forrest Gump), but it is representative of a certain cynical humour he shared early on with writer-partner Bob Gale. Kurt Russell and Jack Warden star in a sketchy comedy about competing used-car salesmen who resort to outrageous tactics to lure customers away from each other. The jokes, like the characters, are intentionally recycled, self-conscious comic fodder from a baby-boomers lifetime (such as Gales or Zemeckis) of immersion in pop culture. That makes Used Cars more pastiche than original (the films title itself suggests that), but as such it has some good, if vaguely familiar, laughs in it. Russell, particularly, is very funny as a practiced con man. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com |

Everyone Loves the Simpsons! This video will convert even the stuffiest aunt, uncle, grandma etc. Laugh for for hours after waching this brilliant video!.. 
drew barrymore was outstanding in this movie she portrays a single mother with dreams for herself which is just shattered by the a unwanted baby but i was pleased to see half way through the the film she learned from her mistakes and started to take care of her baby and love him for what he was and .. 
Having watched this 2-hour programme through twice, I have to admit this was well worth buying as a rally fan. You can watch some footage of virtually every championship-winning car that ever existed in the WRC, as several precious minutes are devoted to each car which includes a very clear Tony Mas..
