Topic: Herbie Goes Bananas


  
  Herbie Goes Bananas
Herbie Goes Bananas opened in Sydney on Thursday 18th December 1980, at only one cinema - the Village Blacktown complex on Kildare Rd. The session times were 9:30, 12:30, 3:30 and 7:30 daily except weekends when there was no 9:30 session.
Herbie Goes Bananas therefore caused barely a ripple in the cinema scene.
Herbie chases the Cessna 182, and by using his front bonnet and levitating front end he grabs the tail, bending the fuselage like a banana (boom boom!) Further hydraulic chomping and the tail falls off.

 Herbie Goes Bananas DVD Review
Herbie Goes Bananas is fourth in the series of films about a charismatic Volkswagen beetle, and for a number of years, it was the last.
Herbie Goes Bananas is an odd direction in which to take the Love Bug series of films, but it is at least entertaining.

 Herbie Goes Bananas (1980)
With Herbie safely tucked away on a cruise ship headed for some major Brazilian car race, the boys think their troubles are over.
But when it is discovered that Paco has stowed away inside Herbie, the captain of the ship is none-too-pleased and orders the offending Bug immediately off the ship.
It share the same problems as Herbie Rides Again by missing much of the charm and heart that is so evident in the original The Love Bug and even in Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo.

 Herbie The Love Bug Fan Club and Historical Society
The original release is from "The Love Bug." The second release is a Herbie painted to appear rusty as seen in "Herbie Goes Bananas." As of this writing, these are the only single packaged 1/64 Herbies.
Herbie Rides Again, Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo, and Herbie Goes Bananas are all single disc films with no bonuses.

Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo brought Dean Jones back into the fray and threw in Don Knotts for good measure, but the film was a pretty weak rehash of the original.
Then Herbie gets in a bullfight, while the two original protagonists (Pete and Davie, remember them?) run around and fall about in cheap physical gags that are more embarrassing to watch than the director's cut of Perfect.
Herbie Goes Bananas is presented in a butchered fullscreen presentation.

 Herbie Goes Bananas (1980)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
This is the only Love Bug movie in which Herbie is never referred to by name.
Easily the weakest of the series, this is a film the Herbie franchise could have done without.
Having a child as the nominal lead in an essentially adult role is a surprisingly common motif in children's movies; surprisingly, because more often than not it fails to work and it certainly fails here.

This 4th Herbie film, the 3rd and last of the "classic" Love Bug sequels, begins in Mexico, where we meet Jim Douglas's nephew Pete, a wanna-be racecar driver himself, and his mechanic, D.J., two young Americans just arriving in Puerto Vallarta.
They're there to pick up Herbie, the VW racing sensation that Jim has turned over to nephew Pete in the hopes that the car and his new driver can help each other by becoming a winning racing team.
That is, until Paco spots a rusty wreck of a Herbie floating in from the ocean.

But during the middle half of the movie, Herbie gets thrown off the ship and the two have to get Herbie back and try to win the Race in Rio,but while that happens, little Paco has stolen some film for these bad men.

Disorder south of the border when Herbie the almost human Volkswagen meets Paco the pickpocket.
As is often the case with sequels, in order to avoid re-hashing the plot of previous movies they have come up with one that is nothing to do with the original premise (racing).
Instead, Herbie foils the attempts of The Bad Guys to steal some ancient Inca treasurs - but this change in plot inevitably detracts focus from Herbie himself (who's even had a name change!).
