Average user review:I actually liked the first Cannonball Run - it was trashy but fun. This movie is no fun. April 15, 2008
TERRIBLE! ZERO STARS!!!
I echo the most recent review before this one--one of the worst movies ever made! Unlike the previous reviewer, I in fact love the first Cannonball Run movie. Sure, not the one of the greatest movies ever, but at least the first Cannonball was funny and had a certain charm to it. The sequel? Gag! Not funny at all, the writing is horrible, the scenes are haphazard and disonnected--an umitigated disaster. An amazing lineup of actors, but I'm sure most of them will hang their head in shame when anyone reminds them that they were a part of this movie. Some of the lesser-level actors whose acting ability was never stellar turn in some of the worst acting ever in this movie. Even the bloopers during the end credits aren't funny, although in the first movie they were. The first movie end credits' bloopers gave me the impression that the stars of the first Cannonball had a blast making the first movie, but I'm sure they were embarassed about the sequel. NOT RECOMMENDED. January 8, 2008
Doesn't anyone like the orangutang?
This movie isn't that bad. Basically it's a vehicle for alot of stars to get together and act stupid. Knowing that,it might be a little easier to take. Maybe not. I like this movie.Nobody ever mentions the parts w/ the orangutang and Goerge Lindsay...HILARIOUS!!!! I'm older {43} I guess you have to be 70's generation to appreciate this. January 16, 2007
The Ultimate Vanity Film
Justly forgotten, "Cannonball Run II" (1984) is a glorified home movie that displays its all-star cast in a spectacularly poor light. Production values are nonexistent and the anticipated Rat Pack reunion (with Frank Sinatra barely showing up) falls woefully flat. After sinking to the depths of "Stroker Ace," Burt Reynolds and director Hal Needham end their screen partnership on a truly wretched note. Recommended only for sadomasochistic film buffs.

For the Fans
If you loved the first Cannonball then you'll love the second; in fact if you liked the "Smokey and the Bandit" movies then you like "Cannonball."
In my humble opinion, this is a good movie, not a great movie. One that you can watch over and over again, but won't neccessarly be your first choice when picking one out.
If you're a fan or this era of movie or Burt Reynolds then you should get this movie. June 26, 2006
