Review This is an entertaining, fast paced movie with lots of action. Nicholas Cage gives a really fine performance as a reformed master car thief, by the name of "Memphis. Giovanni Ribisi is great as his somewhat stupid younger brother.

LA to Vegas Season 1

Review Maindrian Pace (H.B. Halicki) is a master car thief who heads an elaborate organization of professionals. Using an insurance investigation company as a front Pace and his associates buy junked cars from accident scenes steal new autos of the same model and color then switch the serial numbers for resale. It's a lucrative business but when some shady characters offer them 400000 dollars to deliver 50 specific luxury vehicles the challenge is too much to pass up. The burglars put on disguises and waste no time in lifting limousines official racecars and Rolls-Royces (even stopping by a television studio to steal actor Lyle Waggoner's convertible). When Pace discovers that a recently stolen Cadillac has a million dollars worth of heroin in the trunk he destroys the car and the drugs which infuriates his adversarial partner Eugene (Jerry Daugirda). Just as Pace is stealing a bright yellow Mustang (code-named Eleanor) the Los Angeles police department gives chase tipped off by Eugene's anonymous call. This leads to the meat of the film a wild 40-minute pursuit which takes Pace and the police through five cities and leads to the destruction of 93 cars. Gone in 60 Seconds was a big hit for first time director/writer/producer/star H.B. Halicki and inspired a big-budget remake in 2000.
