That was an excellent one.

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Pretty-boy hitchhiker and a small town waitress witness a shooting between the redneck sheriff and his deputy; they take it on the lam, with the crooked law in hot pursuit. Everything in "Moving Violation" seems misplaced: the actors, the milieu, the music. Despite a screenplay by David Osterhout and the estimable William Norton--plus a potentially strong cast of actors including sexy Kay Lenz and Eddie Albert as a lawyer--this shoestring production from Roger and Julie Corman gets off on the wrong foot and never finds its balance. Leading man Stephen McHattie blithely zips through the whole abysmal shebang on cruise-control, emitting no discernible sparks. * from ****

While watching "Moving Violation" I wanted to know where this movie was filmed. There wasn't any reference to filming locations on the IMDb web site. In the process of watching the movie Moving Violation, I saw street signs for HIGHWAY 23, POINDEXTER AVE and also some railroad tracks. Going to Google, Highway 23, Poindexter Ave and the railroad tracks for Southern Pacific are all in Moorpark Caifornia. At the end of the movie at the court house scene when they were going to give themselves up, there was a miniature oil well derrick next to the steps to the court house. Moorpark has some oil wells, as were visible in some of the movie scenes. Does anyone know where the fruit grove scenes were filmed ?

This is a typical 1970s car chase movie (Eat My Dust, A Small Town in Texas, Vanishing Point, etc.). You might think movies like that aren't worth watching, but they're better than 80% of the stuff they call movies today. This movie shows an airbag being deployed back before airbags became standard in cars. It's a public service movie! And you get to see the top ripped off a car back before Buford T. Justice got the top ripped off his car. And you get to see what happens when you don't put all your lug nuts on tight. People in the 1970s rural America liked these movies because they could relate to the setting and the plot and the cars.

I had my doubts about this movie because it was a Roger Corman production. This usually means very low production values. I was surprised as to how good it was. What helped was that it was on a preminum channel with no cuts, edits or commercials. The only thing that I did not like was the car chases because they were speeded up way too much. I was almost like the Keystone Cops. I don't mind chases that are slightly speeded up but these were like a cartoon. The performances by Steven McHattie, Kay Lenz, Lonny Chapman and Eddie Albert were all first rate. I recommned it as a Sat. afternoon movie.
