This is one funny black comedy. The film which was written by Robert Zemeckis and his writing partner Robert Gale centers around the battle between two very sleazy used car dealers. If the film wasn't so likeable and funny I hate to think how it could have turned out.
Kurt Russell is the lead salesman going to war against Jack Warden. Russell is ably assisted by Gerritt Graham and Frank McRae. Also in some crazy casting choices, Al (Grandpa) Lewis shows up as a judge, Dub Taylor is a slimy politician and blink and you'll miss him, everyone's genre favorite actor Dick Miller.
This is probably the best film Robert Zemeckis made. His career has seemed to degenerate into a series of overblown special effects films lacking the wit and fun that he brought to this film.
Running time 113 minutes.
