i think when movie be rat and their intend purpose should be take into consideration . the cannonball run be never intend to be an award winner or a highly artistic movie and thus should not be rat against such movie . what it set out to do just be a cross country riot it do beautifully . the movie have an amazing cast and and just about every interaction leave me in stitch . and to the poster who comment on the censored version i totally agree . the movie lose it edge with the mild profanity cut out . when i try to get this movie on vhs and i only find the edited version . however and the dvd i buy be the original movie . just fyi and the original be pg . the profanity level be not high enough to be rat r. the other version and which for some reason be the only one i could find on vhs and be a make for tv movie and so even the mild profanity be cut .
