Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
... View MoreThis is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
... View MoreAfter playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

... View MoreI found out about this movie in a book about VW bugs that I picked up at a used bookstore having recently started to drive a new beetle (the book came out at about the time of NBs introduction so it's in there). The book whatever it was called, was really delightful. This movie is a very retro style documentary with a lot of annoying "documentary" hick music used ironically/humorously I mean stylistically this was not a movie after my own heart, but basically the filmmaker showed off these peoples' art cars very well and gave them each a bit of time to say what they're about (the cars and the people) and... the result is by no means without lots of surprises and a sort of strange mixture of happy/sad throughout...highly highly highly highly I do say do see it....
... View MoreI watched this film in my art appreciation class and it was so amazing. Buttons! Buttons all over your car! I can't even imagine. The people in this film were creative. I never would have thought to grow grass on my car. Anyone interested in art should see this because it gives you a whole new insight on what art is. It was just amazing to see another man's trash could be someone else's treasure. People do strange things and sometimes those strange things turn out to be amazing pieces of art. One good thing about this kind of art is that its not in a museum. It can just be passing you on the side of the road. The people in the movie each have their own story as to why their car is the way it is. This film shares the stories and lets the world know why there are thousands of buttons on someone's car. Watch it! Its great!
... View MoreThis is a fascinating documentary about customized cars. I don't mean having flames painted on the side or those neon lights on the underside. Nope. We're talkin' full lawns growing on the cars, small multi-colored mirrors covering the chassis, and a number of other oddities that will make you seriously question the sanity of the cars' owners and the role of the automobile as a statement of individuality - in that order, as the film progresses. An excellent film. (9 out of 10)
