Harmless fun ....... and flat out funny ..............
2 June 2010
The film travels at a frantic pace, has an amazing cast of character actors, a catchy theme tune, and converging plot lines. All this mayhem is headed for a small Florida town in need of a freeway exit ramp in order to survive. "Honky Tonk Freeway", is a wonderful time capsule of the 1980s. With "Ricky the Carnivorous Pony", a water skiing elephant, a drive through mortuary, a rampaging rhino, and the town of Ticlaw painted pink, what's not to like? Also included are political payoffs, a nun having impure thoughts, a hilarious pair of bank robbers, and a nymphomaniac traveling with her mothers ashes. The finale includes blowing up a highway, and great old cars being crashed. All the carnage is nicely tied together with insults, toilet humor, and stupidity. Despite some drug use, and a few four letter words, "Honky Tonk Freeway" really is harmless fun, and flat out funny. - MERK
