Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Bowserb46 As a 12 year-old boy in 1960, the appeal of this series was the Corvette. Period. Now, a few years later, I found the first half of the first season on Netflix. I watched the first episode and was blown away. Jack Marta's cinematography is startlingly good, and not just for TV. That first show was about 300 remarkable black and white still photos. At times, I was completely distracted from the show looking at the photography. I don't know if this is included in required watching in cinematography schools, but it probably should be.The series in general seems to be a bit inspired by Kerouac's novels and a bit by the worst of Gunsmoke TV. Why, in the midst of great stories, was it necessary to have Buz in a fist fight with someone in what seemed like every episode (indeed, supposedly Jack Kerouac tried to sue the producer for stealing from "On the Road" and adding too much violence). Except for that one departure from reality (plus the fact that these guys with only occasional minimum wage jobs managed to get a new Corvette every year!), the writing is way above anything else of the era.One other thing. Looking at the series' locations now, this show is also a mini historical look at America at that time. Since every show was shot on location, it doesn't suffer from every "place" looking like Los Angeles or the Universal back lot. Instead, it is a picture of the way things looked in 1960, so it triggers nostalgia among baby boomer like me, I think. Me for sure. Even some of the DVD episodes include the Chevrolet and Corvair commercials, which are fun to watch--particularly the "Unsafe at Any Speed" Corvair!

jimlacy2003 I'm a bit to young to have seen this when I was a kid. But now I've seen about six episodes far I'm thinking Great show!Neat to see all the interesting locations they travel. Interesting to get more of a feel of the attitudes of and culture of the early 60's, etc. Still a time when "Men were men, and Woman where, woman".A big contrast in TV shows today. There is no obligatory homosexual, racial, or otherwise equality messages that seems necessarily woven in to today's shows to appease everyone. While at the same time not being offensive, it's refreshingly unpretentious. It is what it is.. these guys are just honest straight from the heart men.Maybe a little over the top in seriousness/drama at times though..

JAtheDJ I've just seen several episodes of Route 66, which I remember from reruns in the late 60's. The location shots are absolutely wonderful - how Martin Milner and George Maharis survived all the travel to shoot on location is amazing in itself.The story lines deal with people and their personal lives in a very intimate way. Wonderful "guest stars" too - from Robert Redford and Robert Duvall to Walter Matthau and Jack Lord.I grew to appreciate Milner and Maharis from earlier parts they played -Milner as the stoic, sincere jazz guitarist in "Sweet Smell of Success," in 1957 and Maharis in the first hour-long episode of Naked City in 1960. My kind of actors.All in all, Route 66 is a great show.

animal_8_5 Marty Milner and his sidekick George Maharis get into intrigue and adventure on the highways and byways. Mostly across the good old USA, but one stop each in Canada and Mexico.Ahhh, what a great concept for a TV series in this post-war period. Two virile young dudes getting into a gorgeous Corvette and driving aimlessly until the gas money ran out. This was one of the more well written and plotted series of the day, too! Some have called the dialogue intellectual and poetic. It is one of those shows that was impossible to stop watching once you were in the first five minutes. Gorgeous scenery and the perpetual sense that adventure was always just around the turnpike.Stan Lee and Marvel Comics wouldn't admit this, but it would appear they may have unintentionally ripped off the Buzz Murdock character in creating one of their stable characters, Daredevil. According to all the trivial facts about Route 66, Buzz Murdock hails from Hell's Kitchen! Daredevil's secret identity, MATT Murdock, hails from Hell's Kitchen! It seems to me in one episode, Buzz was even blinded! Matt Murdock is blind!Nah, I don't really care either, but thought somebody out there might find it interesting.
