Roadtrip with the guys.
FKDZ13 May 2022
Overall decent little ''movie'' with some foolery. In general though it's a road trip with Knoxville, Pontius and Steve-O. Thankfully they all have great chemistry and it was fun to watch even though there wasn't much going on.

Fast cars, crazy drivers, miles of police and a one way ticket to hell. If you never heard about the Gumball 3000 rally, its basically Cannonball Run the movie even Burt Reynolds the star of cannonball run, is the narrator of the Gumball 3000 movie. Or if you seen the Jackass one hour special on MTV wit the crew in Europe wit there rental, that was this stuff. Like other reviewers, the camera seems to focus on the drivers telling the story of what they had experience through Gumball run instead of recording the action.

Though they still show some action of the drivers in the freeway but not that much but they seem to focus the movie bout the cops pulling the racers over than we see the racer doing any action on the road. OK now I'm done putting down the movie, here is the plus on it. I really like it a lot because they do showcase crazy drivers on the rally even the cuban brothers were really funny. (Can someone tell me if those brothers are really cubans or just drivers pretending to be like them.) Even one of the drivers pull a fast one of the founder of Gumball. Really funny stuff. I recommend this movie if your interested in this stuff. If you want something crazier like this, I recommend looking for any of the Mischief series that is put out by Tekademics productions. That series is more exciting than this stuff but this movie is recommended like I said before, have fun!

Blah.

Rather dull docu-comedy. Gumball 3000 clearly suffers from being aimed at the commercial market, with (assumingly) nearly all 'hazardous' driving cut out, and the main focus is on the police and the drivers getting caught. Hell, if I wanted to see people getting caught, i'd rather watch Police TV or something like that. Couple of plus points for cool cars and the Porsche GT3 dude. If You want to see some real cool motor action, watch Getaway in Stockholm, Servin' it Up or The LVX motorcycle movies.

Shows the spirit of Gumball well

If you like Gumball or cars, this is well worth watching. I just finished the more recent Gumball movie (6 days in May, I think) and was so very disappointed. It had no real entertainment. It isn't a race and it hardly matters where they are going. The important part is how they get there and the personalities along the way.

My absolute favorite parts are the interactions with the police, and there are plenty of these.

This movie did it well, and I wish every year they did this quality of production.

It would get a 10 out of 10 for Gumball fans, but in my mind almost nothing deserves a true 10.

the difference between men and boys is the size and price of their toys

I have no car, not even a drivers license, i know s*** about cars. But after seeing the gumball3000 movie and hearing the gumball3000 was starting in Paris this year, i rushed over there to see a part of it live. The gumball3000 is just pure boyish fun, the cars, the people and a lill sense of freedom. One can t expect a plot to this, it s just people having a ride in some of the world s most gorgeous pieces of machinery and having fun at it. Sit back , watch the cars and catch the drift. Cheerz to Maximillion
