Editorial Review:

Description:
Herbie, the VW with heart, adds some international flair to his lovable personality! Upon enterting a Paris-to-Monte Carlo road race, Herbie falls hood over wheels in love when he encounters a sleek, sporty, light blue Lancia. Also vying for Herbie's attention is a gang of jewel thieves, who've ingeniously hidden a stolen gem in Herbie's gas tank! Thus begins a madcap chase across the French countryside that only The Love Bug could create!

Amazon.com:
Dean Jones, star of The Love Bug, came back to the fold for this third lap around the block, which finds him racing in Monte Carlo while thieves plant a stolen diamond in Herbie's gas tank. The plot is forced and conventional, but the cast is the thing: the excitable Don Knotts (The Apple Dumpling Gang) and the tormentable Roy Kinnear (Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory) are good men to have in a potboiler such as this. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Jim the serious romantic and Wheely the funny comedian, a recipe for laughter and entertainment.
Herbie #53, a 1963 Volkswagen Beetle deluxe ragtop sedan painted with L87 pearl white, with wide racing tires, falls in love with a 1977, Lancia Monte Carlo #7 name Giselle. Giselle has Herbie Moonstruck and both Giselle and Herbie are distracted from getting qualifying times. Herbie animatronics allow him too Waltzes in front of Giselle, blink his headlights, open and close his hood, and move his wheels horizontal in a expression of awe as he watches Giselle tie his record breaking time for the course. Herbie is determined to impress Giselle by washing himself in a water font, bringing flowers to her, and serenading her down the waterfront. Herbie wins the Giselles heart after rescuing and extracting the car from the lake shoreline. Diane Darcy tells Jim, Wheely, and Herbie "win the race for them". Herbie wins the race and Jim and Wheely are famous again.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Cute, Entertaining Movie; Probably The Best Herbie Movie Yet!
Now, I'm not one for oldie's flicks at all anymore, but I think that Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo is probably the only Herbie movie that I would watch if someone put it in the tape player. It's fun and entertaining, and the international racing scene was a great and hilarious choice for Herbie to have his latest escapade. Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo is also a well-cast movie, with the extremely funny pairing of Dean Jones and Don Knotts kicking the laughs up quite a few notches. It manages to provide the occasional silliness and hilarious laughs that kids enjoy, also satisfying fans of international car racing, of course, while adding car-racing action tricks that are out-of-this-world! In other words, whether you are a fan of action-packed car racing flicks or funny, cute comedies, you should watch this movie because it has just the right mixture of both!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Love Bug 3: Back on Track!
Twelve years after leaving the racing scene, Jim Douglas and his living Volkswagen, Herbie, are set to make their comeback! They're entering the Trans-France Race from Paris to Monte Carlo, and they're not going to let anything stop them from regaining their superstar status! That's the intention anyway. But when fate throws a monkey wrench into their golden plan in the form of a lovely European racecar, it's all Jim and mechanic Wheely can do to keep Herbie's eyes on the prize! Of course, this is a comedy about Americans visiting Paris, so you've got to have some diamond heisting! While Jim and Wheely try their best to reason with Herbie and his dreamcar's untrusting female driver, they have no clue that two thieves working for a much bigger mastermind have stashed an enormous stolen diamond in Herbie's gas tank! As the thieves try to get their hands on love-struck Herbie and the diamond, the police chase after the thieves, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Herbie In France!
