IMDb Link Synopsis: This is an inventive twist on low-rent revenge flicks, which follows a car tire named Robert that rolls through the desert Southwest using its strange psychic powers to blow up birds, bunnies, human beings and more. But when Robert spies a gorgeous woman motoring down the highway, he decides to follow her and take a chance on love.Here is a fun film that you guys really wanna see. So meta and so fun that is unlike anything you see. You got your audience in the dessert who rounded up and given binoculars to watch the story unfold and providing a commentary witty and insightful at times. A filmmaker within the film who may or may not be in control. You got your mysterious hot woman, and above all you got Robert a tire with homicidal tendencies who like to blow up heads with its psychic powers. The film is really funny, and gruesome. It might be considered a one trick bonny, but its meta aspect is fascinating. The filmmaker withing the film is switching between his part within the story, commenting on what is happening to first to the audience in the film and for us, breaking the so-called forth wall. But watch out for the ending when things get out of hand and Robert turned out to be an unstoppable power.
It's not really a French film. It was shot in the US with American actors and it is in English. But it is a French film in the sense that its directed by a French and made by French money. I love that the effects are all analog, nothing digital about it, which gave it a certain realism, and made the cheesiness of its effects the more enjoyable. It is a film that keeps getting better and better, till the end with a perfect last shot, which I am not gonna spoil for you. Please watch this marvelous horror comedy. Do it now!!
My Rating 4.5/5
