Reception

[edit]

Reel Film reviews called it "a slight cut above the majority of Roger Corman's low-budget fare - as writer/director Henry Crum does a surprisingly effective job of turning the movie's central character into a figure worth rooting for."[1]

DVD Talk wrote, "Despite any good intentions, Asphalt Wars is an amateurish mess from its opening scene. The acting is uniformly flat and unconvincing, the racing sequences are outrageously cheap-looking, and the whole flick looks like it was shot on a streetcorner with my grandfather's old Handycam."[2]
