    Watched this film the night after I split my head open jumping a Raleigh Strika off the prom onto the beach. Two things always struck me as pure class in this chase. 1, at a time when Bond baddies were fooling around in Ford Cortinas, this movie managed to source half a dozen 911s, and one a flatnose special. 2, the actor, Michael Crawford was very famous in the UK for playing a comedy character called Frank Spencer. In this chase where, the stunt driver drives the Condormobile between the log truck wheels, Michael Crawford did the exact same stunt himself, on roller skates, as Frank Spencer. Awesome work all around. Love this movie.

Really bad car, no leg room, no visibility front, side or rear, no power and awful handling. Those black cars are kits too as the end shots show those were fibreglass bodywork, not sheet metal.

This film was everything good about that era of films. Location. Cars. Easy to follow plot. Comedy. Action. Try to think of another underrated movie that just goes under peoples radar. Condorman would be on that list - a must see!

    A forgotten gem. Forgotten in part, from a British perspective, in that Michael Crawford had become so indelibly associated with a decidedly non-hero role (to the point where he could barely leave his flat) in the UK that it was difficult for many to realise what a profoundly good actor he is.

    Such an awesome and underrated movie. The yellow "Condor" car used in that movie was actually a kitcar called a Nova that was usually put on an old VW Beetle chassis (I believe in the US they often used a Fiero chassis). I owned two of those kitcars back in the day. One was from the UK where the guys had the original molds and were pulling these kits out in a shed (so the quality of the fiberglass layers wasn't too great) while the other was from a company in the US which made a modified version called the Nova Sterling (that one also had solid flip-up headlight covers like we see in Condorman). I believe only 7 or so Sterlings were made before the company went under though.
    Ofcourse the one depicted here in the movie had some additional modifications; most notably the rear section as the Nova didn't have those jet-trusters or anything. There was also a Nova kitcar used in one of the Cannonball movies. You'll know it when the entire roof section opens and closes as that was the main feature of the car. 🙂

My dad worked for Disney when we were little and would rent the actual 35mm reals of movies and project them on a screen in the front yard. He couldn’t play Condorman because it required a special lens on the projector. To this day, it’s still one of my favorite movies from my childhood.

      The boats were custom made at the Chris Craft factory for the film and flown to Monte Carlo on a Cargo 747 at the last minute. The stunt drivers for the boats only had 24 hours to practice driving them before they were destroyed on camera. The entire boat chase was filmed in a single afternoon.
