Great Movie...Great Eye Candy!
Added 11/12/2009
I have to admit, when I saw the previews for this movie I wasn't interested. People told me it wasn't any good, so I didn't see it. We decided to rent it and was blown away. It was just awesome! Define awesome... well imagine all the cool things you can do in a cartoon, but can't do in real life. Some how this movie has bridged the gap. The computer animation was off the chain, but what made it a good movie was the fact that it had a sense of depth at the heart of it. Something here in America we can't relate to.. That some fat cats out there want to turn everything we love into a cash cow and a lot of time don't mind breaking the law to do it. (economic crisis ring a bell?) Take football, basketball, etc its not about the game anymore its about the money...but even though this is a movie, it calls to those who wish someone could just break up the greed, exploitation, and marketing BS. Bring it back to the love of it all...

Not the Original, but at least it's the Mach 5.

When I first saw the preview for this movie I was enraged at what they had done to my childhood favorite. All my life I had wanted to se SR come to the big screen and it finally gets there and they do this to it. Now having said that, being a real SR fan and as long as the car looked mostly accurate, I gave it a chance and went to see it in the theater. Long story short, I think I stopped at 8 times. I took everyone that would go with me, to see it. The Mach 5 is really what the show was all about, nothing else matters. And as long as they created a version of the car that was at least a respectable effort, that was all I cared about. I am not a film critic. All I know is that the film moved me emotionally. But that was mainly because the characters were so dear to me. And of course, the coolest car ever created, real or otherwise. I really just got a huge kick out of seeing a real life depiction of the Mach 5, and they did alot better version that that one guy did who custom-made a couple to auction them off. I still would love to see a more accurate version of the car, I mean exactly like the original series. Critically speaking, this movie did not get a fair shake. I saw soooo many reviews for this movie from people who never actually saw it! who reviews a movie they haven't watched!!! Yes this movie is a little acid-trippish. Yes it is long. Yes it is not exactly as the original. But it's SPEED frickin' RACER, and it's on the big screen, and the car looks totally awesome! 5 STARS.

fun little movie

This was a fun little movie. We saw it at the theater and ended up buying it because it's a great whenever flick with enough sillyness for little kids and enough graphic for bigger kids. The plot is not so much, but it's entertaining just the same.
