Movie Reviews of Fast Company (2-Disc Limited Edition)
Movie Review: Something Different
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very unusual film for David Cronenberg. Admittally, a tax shelter for it's producers, it's still a very appealing movie. B-movie legend William Smith as racer Lonnie Johnson, whose sponsor (represented by John Saxon) is trying to push him aside. What I really like is the scene where Smith cold-cocks Saxon and he goes flying out of the trailer. Perhaps payback? Saxon ended up with the role in ENTER THE DRAGON that Bruce Lee originally wanted William Smith for. Unfortunately for Smith, the movie he was working on ran over schedule and he had to bow out. Big Bill and Bruce Lee ... now that would be something.
Summary of Fast Company (2-Disc Limited Edition)
Studio: Wea-des Moines Video Release Date: 04/27/2004An early departure from director David Cronenberg's canon of visceral horror, 1979's Fast Company profiles one of his personal passions, racecars, in a gritty melodrama that also features exciting racetrack footage. Veteran toughguy William Smith is top-billed as a champion drag racer who clashes with the unscrupulous oil-company executive (John Saxon) who sponsors his team. Though lacking the gruesome clinical obsessions of his horror features (Cronenberg admits on the disc's commentary that the film was a tax shelter for its Canadian producers), Fast Company is also fascinated with internal machinery (here, car engines instead of human bodies), and it's easily Cronenberg's most approachable film, with plenty of automotive action alongside the solid performances (the cast includes B-movie queen Claudia Jennings in her final performance). --Paul Gaita
