The best of the series.
“The Love Bug” runs this entry a very close second, but the energy of “Herbie Rides Again” makes it perfect for kids. There are many great scenes and sequences that appeal to the younger set, and the normally ‘bo-ring’ opening credits are spiced up with stock footage of buildings being demolished. That immediately made me pay attention when I was a little whipper-snapper!Disney should have stopped this series at this point. The next film, “Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo,” was pedestrian, and only saving grace was that it, A) features Don Knotts, and B) is 1,000 times better than “Herbie Goes Bananas,” the only good thing about which is the whacky title.
Just fun. Perfect for kids
I grew up on Herbie movies. I even “met” Herbie in the Panama Canal Zone during the filming of Herbie Goes Bananas. (Thank you Mrs. Kelstom!) I hadn’t seen a Herbie movie in 25 years. They’re exactly as I remember. These films were made back when Disney still had a keen eye on children’s imaginations. Is the film cheesy? Absolutely. Intentionally so. How else could a movie about a “living” car turn out? Helen Hayes is charming. Stephanie Powers is spunky. Keenan Wynn is almost perfect in his role as the over-the-top Disney villain. OK – the flashbacks to Herbie’s racing career are too long. But the film is strong enough to succeed despite that setback. This film is classic early Disney – full of impossible fantasy and magical inventions. If you have children – this film is a must.
