Summary: Gone in 60 Seconds 2 was great, everything else a letdown
Review: I'm from Toby's hometown and really enjoyed the unfinished Gone in 60 Seconds 2 which was filmed in our area. Great to see some locals in the movie. I would have purchased for just this unfinished footage. Deadline Auto Theft was huge let down. It was most of the orginal Gone in 60 Seconds. I own that and Junkman and my kids and I have always enjoyed the car chases.

Summary: He's back again! but something is missing...
Review: I've always been a fan of Halick's films and to have them on DVD is almost too good to be true. This DVD is no exception. Junkman is another high-action, high-speed movie with lots of crashes. Some of the crashes are rather lame and were probably only added to make the "150 cars wrecked" tagline. There is one major disappointment in the soundtrack: all the original '80s music has been replaced with generic music loops.

Summary: It takes alot to make a bad movie out of just car wrecks..
Review: No matter how good the special features might be, there is no way they could make this a good movie.. Maybe DVD will help, you can skip to the more spectacular crashes and segments, but overall this movie is a poorly acted, poorly directed, excuse to wreck cars.. normally I wouldn't complain.. I love car wrecks, and the original Gone in 60 seconds was a GREAT car wreck movie with a cheezy story.. But unfortunately this one just doesn't work, give it a rent, laugh at the some of the more incredible stunts, but don't waste your money, because its just not worth it

Summary: Better than Gone in 60 Seconds
Review: This is honestly a better film than Gone in 60 Seconds. Toby clearly had more time, money, and experience on this picture. Gone has some nice car crashes, but they're stuck in an unwatchably amateurish film you'd be embarassed to make your friends sit through. This film isn't Oscar material, but the plot is about on par with most silly action films of today. There's lots of humor, and plenty of cars flying through the air, crashing and burning in slow motion. Also worth mentioning is that Amazon's special feature list is incomplete. The dvd also contains interviews with a few people from the production and a commentary with the production manager (Jack Vacek) and the director of photography (Tony Syslo).

Summary: Clarification
Review: To clarify the apparent confusion over this film: The Junkman is NOT Deadline Auto Theft. Both films have been referred to as Gone in 60 Seconds II, which is the source of some confusion. Gone in 60 Seconds (the original) is perhaps the best car chase movie ever made. Deadline Auto Theft is nothing more than Gone in 60 Seconds with some of the scenes replaced by an inferior new subplot about a Sheriff out to catch the auto thieves, but his plot goes absolutely nowhere (He is never involved in any of the chases, nor do they resove his storyline. He simply disappears). Many of the original scenes which were replaced have to do with the mechanics of autotheft and character development, thus ruining a great film. The Junkman is nothing more than a vanity piece. In The Junkman, Halicki (the director of Gone in 60 Seconds, owner of a junkyard, and collector of toys) plays a junkyard owner who collects toys and just finished directing a film coincidentally called "Gone in 60 Seconds". Most of the film consists of him showing off his toy and car collections. What little plot there is consists of one of his investors trying to create publicity for the film by destroying a lot of cars participating in a road race by, e.g., dropping bombs on them from a plane, and by attempting to kill Halicki before he can make it to the film's premiere. Unlike Gone in 60 Seconds, the chases are totally unexciting, build no suspense, and do not showcase any skillfull driving (I mean on part of the fictional characters, not the stunt drivers).

Summary: Junkman Review
Review: While the Junkman was not as spectacular as his original gone in 60 seconds, it is still a great movie. H.B. Halicki always pushed the edge to give us a thrilling movie with a lot of action and spectacular crashes. It is sad to know that he was not able to take advantage of the special effects we have today. If he were able to make a movie today with his imagination it would be incredible. We sadly miss him.
