Hot Wheels - World Race

First off I want to say THANK YOU for providing me with the opportunity to purchase this fine copy of such a classic movie. I lost this movie during a move and never saw it again. The hot wheels franchise altogether has been held dear to my heart since I was a child. Hot Wheels Highway 35 World Race was a big eye opener to a whole different level of possibilities.. there are a lot of messages within the movie that stuck with me and the most important one was the idea of high risk, high reward... take that as you will. Someone sends you a car (for free) that can go 300 MPH and tells you he'll give you 5 million if you win the race against the greatest drivers in the world... would you?The seller has packaged the movie very well and it came on time. Highly recommended! Thanks again!

Kids loved it and watched it so muck they know all the dialogue. The extras are great!

I grew up with this movie! I watched it when it aired on Tv (episode form) and when it first came to blockbuster’s as a movie. I found a vhs tape at a thrift store and have loved every moment since. Until the tape started to show wear. Then I remember dvd was a thing so I had to snap up a copy before they are gone.This movie is great for kids lots of cartoon action and who doesn’t love hot wheels. And it even has a awesome story about redemption and selfishness for adults.

Ever since my two year old son found this hotwheels animation movie in the shelf of a rental store, he just fell in love with it. I thought it would be best to buy one instead of renting it over and over. I asked the sales associate if they will sell me a copy of this movie but they have to ask the corporate office. So I waited but never heard from them. So I start shopping around, check online, and compare prices. I thought I got lucky to find a second-hand at $4.99 only to find out that it was just the first episode. It was too short it disappoint my son's expectation knowing the fact that he have seen the movie so many times. Now I'm concerned about the price, shipping and the quality of the product. I know it's hard luck to find what I'm looking for considering the age of the movie, but I was thrilled to find the hotwheels highway 35 world race full-length movie all brand new here at amazon for a reasonable price. I didn't think twice I bought it and that look at my son's face when I handed him the movie he love so much...is priceless. Now my son can watched it endlessly while holding his toy cars and sometimes he just fell asleep in the couch while the movie is on. I am definitely happy with my purchase. I give away the first hotwheels movie I bought to my son's friend as birthday gift. The mom told me her son love the movie as well and that she's thinking of buying one -- so I told her what I did and recommend to look at amazon.

This movie is great! Its all five episodes on one disc without any noticeable commercial break spots (such as when Vert is approaching the lava flow on the Episode 1 disc). The World Race is more than a race to see who's the fastest driver in the world. It is also a place that reflects life. Team Building, betrayal, and redemption all occur on Highway 35. The action never lets up and actually intensifies in the later episodes when a double-blind is pulled on one of the drivers, a new menace is presented, and the World Race turns into one big, fast free-for-all that culminates in a battle at the mecca for racers.The DVD contains all 5 team videos, a video for Smash Mouth's "Hot" and a section with all 35 cars w/vital statistics, along with a short driver biography. Kind of like the ones that come in the mini comics.Believe me, this movie is about the race and the race only! With an interesting story, and someone who actually says Taro's line ("I'm going to pass you.") to the Scorcher's leader and does it. Its in a class all to itself, a World Class!

My son(20) has been looking for this for a while. We had this on VHS when he was a little guy and he watched it often. It was lost in a move and he has been asking for it since. He says its the best hot wheels movie out there.

Good

I bought this DVD because my 3 year old son (of course) loves the toy cars and he needed a video besides the Blue's Clue's and Dora types. I bought this particular video based on a review I read saying there wasn't any real violence and it taught teamwork skills. In my opinion the makers of the film did a fair job with the no violence though there was one man on man fight where one kicked the other and one pushed the other down a hill. Also, there was a part where a robot was obviously trying to hurt a human with a large chunk of ice. My son makes me put my hand around his face at that part but still wants to watch. Otherwise, honestly, I really enjoy the movie myself! As I put in the video for the first time my husband and I both got stuck there in front of the TV watching it too. It catches your attention right away! I did think it got long after the first two hours though and found myself waiting to get to the end. I have still watched it a few times since though. It is all my son wants to watch anymore!!
