  55. The original characters from The Cannonball Run (1981) race across the country once more in various cars and trucks.
  56. The Sheik who competed at the last Cannonball Run, is berated by his father for not winning it. So he tells him to go and win. Problem is that there is no Cannonball Run. So his father tells him to make one of his own. He puts up a million dollars as the prize. So former Cannonballers J.J. and his buddy Vince join, as does Blake and Fenderbaum and some other characters. But Blake and Fenderbaum owe a mobster some money, and the mobster owes some other guy more. He then decides to grab the Sheik and hold him for ransom so he can pay the guy back.
  57. &quot;Cannonball Run II&quot; is an awful film. With &quot;Stroker Ace&quot; and &quot;City Heat&quot; he hit the trifecta of movie duds. Why Burt chose to make this film is beyond me. I imagine the money was good and the chance to work with all his friends was too good to pass up. Unfortunately, he forgot to put a product on the screen for his legion of fans that would even be considered passable. It&#39;s not.<br/><br/>And where is the race? Much of it is done with animation showing cars on a map. You make a movie about a car race and forget to film the race?And a real kicker is a cameo by Frank Sinatra. He sits in an office supposedly talking to Burt and Dom DeLuise but it is obvious that Frank filmed his scenes separately and Burt and Dom were added later. And what in the world was Shirley MacLaine thinking in taking this as her first role after winning an Oscar for &quot;Terms of Endearment?&quot;<br/><br/>Sadly Burt would never really recover from the string of duds he made in the 80&#39;s (and there were many)though he did deliver in &quot;Boogie Nights.&quot; Too bad his fans can&#39;t take this film, along with the aforementioned &quot;Stroker Ace&quot;, &quot;City Heat&quot;, &quot;Malone&quot;, &quot;Stick&quot;, and several others and burn them forever. It&#39;s best to remember the Burt of the mid to late 70&#39;s.
  58. I first saw this movie last year. It wasn&#39;t as good as expected at all! All the jokes were lame. Shirley MacLaine is my FAVORITE actress of ALL TIME!! She even admitted that this movie wasn&#39;t her best acting choice. Actually, her role stunk, and to do this movie after winning for Terms of Endearment got her a nomination for the WORST Actress Award. This just goes to show you, it&#39;s never good to a sequel to a big movie. It might not be that good. You can exclude Rush Hour 2 though. Now, that one was good. And better than the first. Not saying that always happens to other movies. They were just lucky. Chao!
  59. Cannonball Run II is one of the laziest insults to the intelligence of moviegoers that I can remember. Sheer arrogance made this picture.
