The Mad Racer is a comedic romp that perfectly captures the light-heartedness of 1920s cinema. Directed by Benjamin Stoloff, it’s got this charming vibe with its mix of romance and humor. Van Bibber, our lead, finds himself embroiled in shenanigans thanks to the antics of a hired rogue—the Mad Racer. The pacing is brisk, keeping you engaged as the tension builds around the Buggy Race. The performances have a playful energy, and the practical effects, especially during the racing scenes, are a treat to watch. You can really feel the atmosphere of the time, with its simple yet effective storytelling that leans into the absurd. It’s a neat little slice of the era’s filmmaking style.
