This was a movie my husband watched as a kid. It was great to watch it again 20 years later. Though this movie wouldn't be a box office hit by today's standards, it was funny to look back and re-live the styles.

off roading inspiration1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
I love this movie. It's a documentary movie that doesn't make you want to close you eyes and fall asleep. If you are a fan of off roading, whether its trucks, buggies, quads, dirtbikes, or even baja volkswagon bugs, you'll love this movie. I've seen this movie before when I worked at No Fear, but since that store took it off the shelves it has become impossible to find. Therefore, thank goodness to ebay. I definitely say this is a great movie.

What makes a racer tick...
) 1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
I first saw this movie on a cable movie channel, and watched it not because I'm a racing fan per se, but because my sweetie races motorcycles. I watched "On any given Sunday" with him, and actually liked it. I liked this movie for the cinematography, and that it showed the race to be more than a show of "big money". It gave some insight into the personality of someone who enjoys racing. Thinking about what it took to film such a movie is mind-boggling, and the final product certainly seems to me to have been worthwhile. Kudos to everyone who did it. Not being any kind of "motorhead", I watched it without caring about the machines racing, but the sheer spectacle of such an undertaking. It ended with me wanting to see more. An excellent movie for any race fan, and very good for anyone who's not.

Well made and directed, great cinematography and great scenery. Not just another quick to market truck and cycle action documentary. This is well thought out, plays well and most importantly keeps the viewer interested for the entire 90 minutes. Hats off to the directory and producer. Anything else they film I will be buying. Best video on the market concerning the Baja 1000.

The film footage was exellent the director made it seem like you were in the race with the competitors.I am a big off road racing enthuseist and the baja 1000 is the cream of the crop race and i wanted to see in detail what it took for some of the teams to try to complete the entire 1000 grueling miles of the Baja.Exellent film i would recomend it to any body with an interest in off road racing.

I greatly enjoy the quality and subject matter of the film - the most complete documentary of the Baja 1000 off-road race ever made - and am running it as I write this, for at least the tenth time.
I'm an admitted "motorhead" and would recommend this to any motorcyclist or car go-fast person who can relate to the motivation of the main characters shown in this movie. Some things are shown that have never been done before and a level of development in vehicles and skill in people are truly amazing.
There is nothing negative worth mentioning because there isn't any!

This is a great movie/documentory!! It keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the whole film!! If you like the style of movies like The Endless Summer you will LOVE this off road version! Dirt bikes, Sand Rails, Trophy Trucks, Baja Bugs, Dirt and soo much more!! You will feel like you are in the excitement of the race!! I highly recommend this movie to any off roader stuck at home or anyone that is interested in learning more about racing!! Even if you aren't into off roading you will be when you are done with this movie!! A+

Very informative movie. I enjoying documentary types. I am an avid racer myself, so that helps. If you have a need for speed and/or enjoy racing of any type, then this is for you. Trophy trucks, quads(My race vehicle), bikes, buggies, and other wild race machines tear up Baja Mexico.

This dvd is the next best thing to being there! My big brother and I were part of a race team and ran chase during the 1999 baja mil, and this video tells it like it is! Whether you are into buggies, trucks or motorcycles, this is a must-have for any off road enthusiast. A very good documentary of a legendary race.

another awesome vid from Dana Brown about the Baja10001 of 1 people found this review helpful.
I waited for about two years for this movie to come out to the theaters...when it finally came out I was the first in line here in Houston. This movie is awesome...you won't be disappointed. I love the Dana Brown movies and the Baja1000 legacy. It is action packed and very descriptive, it offers some historical aspects of the Baja1000 which are very interesting. Buy it, you'll love it!!!

Awesome! Love this Movie. Must've watched it 10 times!!If you like offroad racing, you'll love this movie. If you've been to Baja, you'll fully appreciate this movie. "Baja is hard to describe because it's not just a place, it's an emotion". If you like offroad racing, get this movie and see if you can feel the "Baja Magic", I can, but then I'm addicted!

Awesome movie, both for riders and non-ridersThis is a story of sheer skill and persistence. It's a great tale of personal achievement and camaraderie in competition. A must see for any motorcyclist. Set in the dusty expanse of the baja coast, this movie maps the course of a race in terms of the experiences of the drivers/riders. Great camera angles and footage.

A great video for fans!Review created: 07/08/08
by:
If you enjoy any form of motor sports you will enjoy this movie. If not, the cheesy narration and over the top production will probably take a lot of entertainment out of the movie for you. If words like big lift cam or tapered Renthal bars mean anything to you, than definitely check it out.

Dana Brown is fast becoming a premier documentary filmmaker-which shouldn't be too surprising-it's almost a family tradition. I love this film-have watched it many times and have placed it on my dvd bookshelf-right next to Dana Brown's Step Into Liquid documentary about surfers and surfing.
He has a very good way with subjects that interest him. And for the viewer, it is often like taking a learning vacation; sit back and enjoy the world outside your door through the eyes of a master documentary filmmaker.

Dust To GloryReview created: 04/29/08

What can I say? The best movie ever made about the sport of off road racing? How about the only movie ever made about off road racing? Going back more than a few years one could mention "Little Fauss And Big Halsey" or perhaps "On Any Sunday I or II" but those movies while great in there own right are mostly buddy movies with bikes, admittedly "OAS" is the standard to which all others must be judged...or at least untill "Dust To Glory" hits your screen!
This movie captures the real passion, thrills and impact Baja has on those that try and endure it, not conquer but endure...and truely the story in a story about Mouse McCoy is a terrific visualization of that challenge.
But I digress....
The movie is realized from the viewpoint of the racers, pit crews and spectators, Dana Browns superb capture of the raw elements of what is in it's most basic form a true test of will and endurance is faithfully rendered. As others have pointed out in reviews the movie could be more tightly focused, there are several plot lines and characters involved that unless the viewer is familiar with the sport can be distracting from the main message. However the beautiful photography of the Baja Peninsula and the cars, bikes and personalities capture the imagination and pull this film together.
Take it from someone that has been there, my first Baja race was in 1974 and I have been back many times since as spectator, pit crew and entrant...this film captures the Baja as well as can be possibly hoped.
See it, and brush the dust off afterwards!
