[.ca] Corvette Summer



pretty good film for it's time:
i use to watch this film all the time whenever it would come on & it was catchy for it's time period.Vettes were cool rides from the late 70's through early 80's.this film will take you back.


Let's see this on DVD (Widescreen)!:
I loved this movie as a kid, and bought the VHS! I've owned three Corvette's in my life so far, and this movie was definitely an inspiration to the obsession. The quality of the VHS is not so great, and the audio is starting to go bad. With all the older movies now being re-produced on DVD, I wonder how this one was missed? I wish MGM would release this on DVD.


It's not Star Wars, but Mark Hamil still delivers:
This movie is hilarious! Don't no why this didn't do well in theatres, this is a very very funny. This is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. You just have to see this. It's hard to give a helpful review on this film, because it is one of a kind, so all I can say is just see this movie, I promise that you won't regret it. 5 STARS is perfect for this gem.


IT'S NOT JUST A CAR!:
THE DVD RELEASE OF CORVETTE SUMMER HAS FINALLY REPLACED MY OLD TAPED VHS COPY FROM TELEVISION.KUDO'S TO WARNER STUDIOS FOR RELEASING THIS CLASSIC 70'S CAR MOVIE ON DVD.IT'S A BAREBONES RELEASE AS FAR AS DVD'S GO,BUT I'LL TAKE IT.THE VIDEO TRANSFER IS REALLY NICE AND THE SOUND IS VERY GOOD.IT'S TOO BAD THIS ONE WASN'T IN 5.1 DIGITAL GIVEN IT'S SOUNDTRACK.NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I WATCH THIS MOVIE,I STILL FIND IT VERY ENTERTAINING.THE STORY IS OK AND THE INTERACTION BETWEEN MARK HAMILL AND ANNIE POTTS CHARACTERS IS PRETTY FUNNY.I HAVE TO ADMIT,WATCHING ANNIE POTTS PLAY THE PART OF A SKINNY WANNABE HOOKER IS PRETTY HILARIOUS.IN THE END THIS MOVIE IS REALLY ALL ABOUT THE CAR.


A Forgotten Classic...:
Corvette Summer may seem like a cheesy 70's made-for-tv movie, but it is, in fact, an enjoyable little film. Essentially, the story revolves around a car freak by the name of Kenny Dantley (played by Mark Hamill). He spends the entire summer tracking down a stolen Corvette that he helped build in his shop class. There are many familiar faces: Annie Potts from Designing Women (who received a Golden Globe nomination for her performance), Danny Bonaduce from The Partridge Family, etc... 70's preservationists as well as Las Vegas desert enthusiasts will be quite impressed. The story has a decent moral message as well. You may ask yourself through the film whether or not Kenny takes a real shower, but, overall, it's definitely at least a rental.
