Chrome Underground Audience Reviews

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Oz_Smith While I'm not a big gearhead myself, I do watch a LOT of car shows on Discovery and Chrome Underground has peaked my interest faster than most other shows.It's definitely unique in having the deals take place outside of the US and often in shady areas of Mexico and South America where the potential for things to go awry is a lot higher.All three main characters (Antonio, Yusuf and Andrew) are interesting and likable guys that aren't afraid to show their emotions.The only other comparable show that I've seen would be Chasing Classic Cars, where the boring and mundane host makes it almost unwatchable, and all the deals are fairly straightforward and uninteresting.Chrome Underground does show a little of the mechanical side, but I like the focus on actually making the deals and the care taken to minimise the risks.It's a shame that Andrew most likely won't be appearing again if another season is shot, he added a lot to the show and I hope things work out for more episodes in the future, so we can actually see how the guys made out when returning to the US.
patrick-201-760554 I had the misfortune to watch their Argentinian episode, where they nearly buy a replica Bugatti. This was depressing - this show seems to be aimed at US couch potatoes who think that traveling outside the US is tantamount to risking your life. Discovery channel also seem to think that their audience has absolutely no idea what a classic car is. The ignorance on show is just laughable - the commentator described the Bugatti engine as an 'inline v8" (its a straight eight - morons). I guess that the production team are just as dumb as the intended audience. The macho bravado of their 'security adviser' constantly flagging up totally innocuous scenarios as if they were extremely dangerous got very tiresome, very quickly. This is what happens when you let less-than-intelligent non-car people make a car show. Absolute garbage - avoid at all costs.
phil-1393 I started watching this show thinking: "wow, a new show that takes us to foreign countries in search for a rare car in a hostile environment." But after ten minutes I lost all interest in it. What are the odds of finding a US mercenary working as a bartender in Mexico and willing to risk his life to "rescue" 20000$ and only earning 200$?Yeahp, the Mclaren character is a poor actor. When you see him looking around as to check if the place is secure or not, you totally figure out that this show is has real as WWE fights.Don't bother watching. It's a total waste of time. You don't see anything that really makes us petrol heads jump on our seats. Worst TV show ever.
taylor-d-duncan Complete waste of time. I will never that hour of my life back. They hardly show any cars. The acting is awful. It is painful to watch. The preview of whats coming up after the commercial break lies to you over and over and tries to make everything way more dramatic then it actually is. When they get tired of acting or coming up with fake interactions the screen just goes dark and they post some made up account of what happened while you were trying to figure out whether this is a reality show or scripted. Its obviously scripted and in the worst way. I can't believe people actually take the time and resources to make such a horrendous viewing experience.
