Dec 27, 2006

Lindsay Lohan is the queen of Disney retro flicks. She brought Freaky Friday and The Parent Trap back to the silver screen, and is now starring opposite a Volkswagon Bug with a mind of its own! Find out if Herbie: Fully Loaded can rev your engines or if it just sputters around the race track!

Herbie: Fully Loaded - The Little Bug That Could

Maggie Peyton has just graduated from college, so her dad has generously offered to buy her a new car - at the junkyard. That's where they find the rusted-out, banged-up Herbie, who is no longer the cream of the racing crop. Mags reluctantly buys Herbie after he "accidentally" crushes the car she had her eye on. But, the loveable VW Bug shows Mags that he has a whole lot of new tricks under his old hood!

Herbie: Fully Loaded - Exterminating the Competition

Mags has always dreamed of becoming the first female NASCAR champion, but her dad, who was a famous NASCAR racer, won't let her race cuz she's had one too many scary street racing incidents. Through a series of mishaps, Mags finds herself in yet another street race, but this time it's against Trip Murphy (played by Matt Dillon), the nasty NASCAR champ. Everyone thinks Trip will easily beat the beat-up '63 Bug, but Herbie proves he's no hunk of junk! Mags slams Trip in the street racing showdown, which sets off a whole bunch of contests to see who really is the fastest driver around.

Herbie: Fully Loaded - Start Your Engines!

There's a lot of cool cars and racing scenes in the movie, but underneath all that lies a nice message about following your dreams. Now that Herbie has entered her life, Mags' NASCAR dream is coming true. When her big brother gets into an accident at the race track, she must step into the championship race and put Herbie to the ultimate test - becoming a NASCAR competitor! Herbie used to be a determined Bug who won because he wanted it more than any other car out there. But now that he's a little old, do ya really think he'll be able to handle the heat of the competition?

Herbie: Fully Loaded - DVD Features
