Snake & Mongoose Movie

I caught the 3:40 showing today after work,, got the senior discount, and walked into the theater and theres only one dude in there. He looks at me and of course, I tell him, "Aw man, that's the seat I wanted!" He laughs and sadly, that's the only people that saw the afternoon showing. A shame that this movie doesn't get any advertising in the "real world",, just in our little racers' circle. The only radio spots I've heard are 10 second bites on our local sports talk station. I know its not a major motion picture, but I hope the evening and weekend shows do better than 2 viewers per showing.
As for the movie, I thought it was alright,, a decent story line, with plenty of old footage mixed in. I feel the 2 main actors did okay,,, theres a little mixing of chronological events, like going from the Arrow to the Monza and back to the Arrow, depending on the footage used. Some of the "cameos" were amusing,, Capps, DeJoria,, Snake & Goose on the golf cart, and so on. I thought the kid playing Jamie McEwen did a great job.
Overall,, I'd say if you get a chance to see it, go for it. Make sure you hang around for the credits as theres some cool pics and video shown to close it out. My 2 cents.
