speed racer review thread

Looks like shit with pretty packaging.

If it's longer than an hour, I could see myself getting a headache from the visual effects.
 
Looks like its really impressive visually, and really just bizarre in every other respect.
 
Looks like it has a horrible plot which consist of Tokyo Drift without Yakuzas fused together with Disney's Cars.
 
7/10 it was a great artistic movie. Wish i saw it on imax tho, backed out thinking it wasn't going to be good.

So, I was all geared up to hate this movie. I was never that much of a Speed Racer fan, but some things even I don't like seeing tampered with. And all the previews for it looked just awful. I remember telling my friends after seeing the trailer, "I liked this game better when it was called F-Zero." Even the hotness that is Christina Ricci wasn't enough to make me think this was going to be a good movie.

And then Racer X punched a viking in the face while he flipped over him in mid-air.

7, maybe 8/10.

FFS, he punched a viking. In mid-air. God.
 
I've been wanting to see it, but I don't know if I want to pay 7 bucks....

I loved the cartoon as a kid.
 
Wow. . . that movie actually was freaking awesome.

I barely watched the show as a kid and thoroughly enjoyed it.
 
Let's just say I drove home quicker than the law probably would have liked me too.
 
Incredible. Critics have been complaining about the plot, who the hell cares? Besides, I think the plot is totally solid. It's a trip and it's gorgeous and it's hilarious. I'm definitely getting this on blu ray and I'll probably see it for a third time tomorrow.
