the original vanishing point be a great flick . subtle motif and character that seem real and spontaneous . the remake be terrible . preachy and overtly obvious while it miss the point a to why the original be a classic . the black charger be cool and but even that couldn not rescue this flick . why stick with a white challenger . i do not think that be the best choice back in 71. some part of the film be unintentionally hilarious . like when vigo be stand on a cliff overlook the canyon after his dream quest . his indian pal be stand next to him . vigo be only wear his white brief . i be sorry it just look silly him survey the vista in his fruit of the loom . another scene be at the end after the explosive crash into the bulldosers the announcer say that the impact be clock at 180 mph . then he mention that the cop say his remains weren not find because he vaporize and but some people believe he bail out and be hide by friend in the crowd . then it show him roll out of the car at 180 mph . first of all and you couldn not open the car door at 180 mph . secondly and the car would not continue to travel in a straight line for 100 yds . with nobody to steer it . it would promptly roll over about 30 time . thirdly and if you hit the pavement at 180 mph and you would wind up in various squishy piece . no matter and we see him at the end stand with his daughter . all in all and a movie that would insult anyone intelligence .
