well, i saw it, and i really dont know what to think haha. Knievel seemed to be a bit "round" around the edges. and the acting wasnt that great.

i especially like the special effects when the front tire blew out on Knievel's bike and when the bad guy's porsche was rolling down the hill. but hey it was the late 70s, you gotta love stuff like that! i still got a good kick out of it. my 2 cents.

Lesley Nielsen is a true gangsta...
