The Bowery Boys
by SnoopyStyle2023-02-13
6/10

"Slip has entered a race with his jalopy. Sach has rented out the back room of the malt shop to Prof. Bosgood Elrod. Sach is making a new candy formula, but his bungling ends up with a super fuel formula. Their rivals try to steal it. There are some stunts especially with Sach walking around on the track. There are the footage of crashes. I expected a lot more of racing action. There are only two races. That's a little disappointing. I expected more from the climatic race. It's cute. It's not exciting. All in all, this has some fun moments, but a bit disappointing for this 29th ..."
