Description:
Herbie is back in gear -- revved up and ready for more madcap comedy adventure in this sidesplitting sequel to Disney's popular smash hit, THE LOVE BUG! This time Herbie's leading lady is award-winning actress Helen Hayes, superb in the very first screen comedy of her illustrious career. Aided by co-stars Ken Berry and Stefanie Powers, she's out to save her beloved Victorian firehouse home from the wrecking ball of greedy real estate tycoon Keenan Wynn, Disney's most lovable villain. It's up to Herbie and his bug battalion to 'come through in the clutch'! Fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a really great time!
Amazon.com:
The first sequel to The Love Bug is similar enough to the first film's charm and raucous comedy that it works on its own. Neither Dean Jones nor Michelle Lee are back, but a nice cast of familiar pros keeps things moving along slickly. The story finds Herbie helping Helen Hayes--yes, the First Lady of the American Theater--keep out of the clutches of Keenan Wynn's villain. --Tom Keogh

Average Rating: 
Rating: - The Love Bug's First Sequel
Probably the only amazing thing about this sequel is that it took so long before Disney released it. "The Love Bug" became a big hit for Disney, and for many years after the movie many children called all Beetles Herbie. This movie trades Dean Jones as Jim Douglas and Buddy Hackett as Tennessee Steinmetz for Helen Hayes as Mrs. Steinmetz (yes, she is related to Tennessee), Stefanie Powers as flight attendant Nicole Harris, and Ken Berry as newly minted lawyer Willoughby Whitfield.

Five years after Herbie the Volkswagen bug made his big-screen debut in Disney's legendary hit film, "The Love Bug," the little racecar returns with the lovable 1974 comedy, "Herbie Rides Again!"

Rating:  - Just a poor re-hash of "The Love Bug"
Like many sequels, the writers of this one were unable to come up with a new plot idea, so they basically re-hashed the original. Ken Berry takes the Dean Jones role, Stephanie Powers takes the Michelle Lee role, the demise of the firehouse replaces the demise of Herbie, etc, etc. Also like many sequels, the result was poor at best. While it had its moments [the parade of Beetles], for the most part, "Herbie Rides Again" seemed to try to hard to be clever...and as a result, fails.
