This 1976 female bank robbers exploitation flick is extremely upbeat, with catchy tunes and wide open Texas vistas. Claudia Jennings is sex on wheels as the leader of a trio of bank robbers. Her partner in crime is Jocelyn Jones, and Johnny Crawford plays a "professional hostage". He also gets to share the "bridal suite" with Jennings and Jones. Not bad work for a marginal singer/television actor. It's also good to be the bellhop who delivers champagne to Jennings in the soaking tub. A trip to a fancy restaurant with a nude dancer (Alice Friedland) is memorable, and the isolated cabin shootout offers plenty of REALLY RED blood. The movie delivers, with ample bank robberies, ample explosions, and ample nudity. One final thought. You rarely see a Rolls Royce used as a getaway car. - MERK

I found Claudia Jennings and Joselyn Jones to be real, human and very sexy as outlaws in this one. Despite their difficulties with people, ( and men in general) they smile, are happy, and get good advice how to rob banks with dynamite. This one is in the mold of Thelma and Louise, but does not contain the male bashing, the female copy-catting, and overall depressing theme that Thelma and Louise did.This one did not say, that men are all evil, (except a super sensitive police chief), and women copy men's evil so we get evil all around. This one say's when people are put in bad situations they find a way to cope. It is more of a tribute to the human spirit than Thelma and Louise.I can not say enough about, the affection I had for the Claudia Jenning character. Back when I saw this, I wished I could meet her. However, I was always into the bad girl, back then.

I suppose that I'm a sucker for films of this "sexy bank robbers on the run" category, but I found, to my great surprise, that I really enjoyed this minor entry to the genre. Viewers will no doubt be reminded of earlier films such as "Gun Crazy," Bonnie and Clyde" and "Butch Cassidy...," and of course the later "Thelma and Louise," as this movie enfolds. All those others are certainly superior films, but "Texas Dynamite Chase" still has a lot going for it. Claudia Jennings and Jocelyn Jones make for one sexy team, and the twangy/jangly honkytonk music, authentic-looking locations and credible script make for a very realistic experience. The only thing I had a hard time believing, actually, is just how far these gals get in their bank-robbing spree. The picture also concludes very surprisingly; I certainly did not see that one coming! Despite Danny Peary's comments to the contrary in his book "Cult Movies 2," I found Jennings' performance to be very good, indeed. What a shame that we lost her to a car accident shortly after this picture was made. Her sad real-life fate only makes the high-speed car chases in this film all the more affecting.

Occasionally sexy but unexceptional, routine programmer about two female bank robbers (who also pick up an amiable guy along the way and make him their partner). The movie looks flat (it's no surprise that the director later worked almost exclusively on TV flicks) and is full of implausible situations staged to move the story along, but the cast at least makes it tolerable.
