TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
burgessgary The movie had nothing to do with Knite rider i was an extra in the pilot it was a spin off of mad max people got this wrong whinier David Hasselhoff try to sue and they shut it down for money reasons or it would have been a action pack series.I WAS IN IT FOR ABOUT 1 SECOND IN KUBOKIES SWAP MART STANDING WITH ANOTHER MAN TALKING.
Leofwine_draca When the popular KNIGHT RIDER TV series finished, I guess the producers weren't quite ready to give up the ghost because they produced a couple of follow-on TV movies in the years after. The first at least had Hasslehoff to tie it into the series, whereas KNIGHT RIDER 2010 has absolutely nothing to do with the show or indeed even the spirit of the show.Sure, there's an armoured car with weapons in a couple of scenes, but that's the only scant connection. The rest of this is set in a post-apocalyptic world, with heavy nods to the MAD MAX films, where an evil organisation is presided over by a disabled scientist and our loner hero must use his wits and his high-powered car to rescue a kidnapped woman. Oh, and there's something about illegal organ donation, too. The acting is wooden beyond belief, the lead actor is simply terrible, and the production values are so appalling as to be non-existent which renders the many action scenes laughable. The one thing this has going for it is a villainous Brion James in typically arresting form, but sadly he can do nothing to save the film itself.
whacko I saw this on the UPN network's "Action Pack" which is where the Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and Xena Warrior Princess started out. It was kind of an afternoon movie show and each week they showed a different movie. Some had several 2 hour episodes like Hercules. Other's like Knight Rider 2010 only had one shot.The movie takes place in a post apocalyptic world in the same vein as Mad Max. A few powerful corporations are still around but a lot of the world is wasteland and decaying cities. One of the corporations is after a crystal computer chip, which eventually becomes the core of the new K.I.T.T. although the car has little in common with the black Trans Am from the series. The recorded mind of the driver's love interest is stored in the crystal computer chip and does little more than make sassy comments and try to come to terms with her death.There is another baddie out there with a fance car created from the remains of a stealth bomber. The climax of the movie is a chase through the city while machine guns and bombs fly.I have over-simplified the plot but it really isn't much more complicated than I have laid out. The T.V. movie would have been more successful had it been given a non-Knight Rider name. Had it been billed as a Mad Max ripp-off it might have been better received.In the end though, this movie is a lot more entertaining than "Team Knight Rider." Which was truly horrid and reminiscent of the Power Rangers TV Show in terms of some of its visuals.
Nenko Genov I watched this movie without linking it to the original TV series. It was long ago since they were on air, and all the kids called the episodes tot "Knight Rider" but "The KITT car!!!". So I rent Knight Rider 2010... This is one of those B-movies, with naive plot, unknown actors and cheap special effects.. But HELL I love this movie! If you expect KITT or Night - you'll be probably disappointed. So take this not as "Knight Rider", take it as a brand new story. If you like post-apocalyptic stuff and old style car battles - watch it! This movie isn't great, but it's cool! If this was a cartoon or animated series it would probably become cult classic.
