Product Description
From Amazon.com
This savvy Disney hit from 1969 made a star of a Volkswagen precisely when the car was becoming more popular than ever. Dean Jones and Michele Lee head the cast in a story about a VW bug with a mind of its own. Disney point man Robert Stevenson, director of The Absent-Minded Professor, Mary Poppins, and lots of other Disney live-action hits, makes the slapstick work perfectly and keeps the laughs coming. Buddy Hackett is very funny in a supporting role. --Tom Keogh
Video Details
For the first time ever you can enjoy this timeless classic in a Special Edition DVD. Fully restored to look and sound as it was originally intended, it also features hours of exclusive bonus materials your entire family will enjoy again and again. He's the star who provides the most laughs per gallon. He's Herbie, the lovable car with a mind of his own. Dean Jones, Michele Lee, and Buddy Hackett join Herbie in this revved-up comedy classic. Jones plays down-on-his-luck race car driver Jim Douglas, who reluctantly teams up with the little machine. Douglas thinks his sudden winning streak is due to his skill, not Herbie's. He finally realizes the car's worth when a sneaky rival plots to steal Herbie for himself. But it's Herbie who'll steal your heart in this wildly fun roller-coaster ride of a movie you'll never forget!

Charm can only take the movie so far,
By
This review is from: The Love Bug DVD (DVD)
This review contains some vague spoilers.Herbie (the car) is lovable from the start, we all want him to win and be loved by his owner. The charm of the cute little car can't completely make up for the film's many flaws though. The production seems very cheap, and suffers from all the cheap tricks used in film-making at the time. Only the acting of Buddy Hackett stands out as being good, whereas Dean Jones' is truly quite bad. It is completely unrealistic that Jones' character Jim doesn't realize his skills aren't winning the races, and that a Beetle can't go much faster than more powerful cars. I think it's also worth pointing out that the film isn't suitable for toddlers or young children because of the suicide scene, many insults between characters, and the violent intent of the villain.

A True, True Classic!,
This review is from: Love Bug, the (VHS Tape)
This movie is one of Disney's best classics! If you have never seen it, you have missed out on all of Disney!!!! Right away, you fall in love with Herbie, the 'little car' that drove into our hearts!! Dean Jones, Michele Lee, and Buddy Hacket are great in this movie! Watch as Herbie, who has a mind of his own, wins races and makes everyone believe in the 'little car!' A must have for every Disney collection!
