The Summer of Love Bug charges ahead with the second installment, HERBIE RIDES AGAIN. Everyone's favourite sentient little car is back, along with the firehouse set and...well, that's about it. Disney shook things up by bringing in a whole new cast of characters, but boy did it pay off. For as much as Vicky, Nolan and Jill were charmed by Herbie's first outing, this one amps just about everything up. The villain is more villainous, the female lead is more full of sassy, no-nonsense pep (there are actually two female leads in this movie! Imagine that for a Disney film o this era), and Herbie is more homicidal than ever. Sure, there's some trade-offs; we replace Cool Guy Dean Jones with Soft Man Ken Berry, and our beloved Tennessee is back in Tibet so we make do with his dear old Auntie - but you won't really hear our hosts complaining as we continue on this ride with Herbie with reckless abandon.
