Review of Speed (1994) by Jon C — 12 Mar 2012
An extremely cool, fast-paced fun action thriller.
One of Keanu Reeve's best and he makes quite the action hero.
Love Sandra Bullock in here too and the chemistry between her and Reeves.
Dennis Hopper as the villain adds to the tension.
This is a smart, original plot, too.
Try comparing this to any other action movie and I doubt you'll find some similarities.
The 1st 30 establish who the main antagonist is but honestly I could've have done without all that.
The plot doesn't really kick off til after the half hour mark.
Once that began I was glued to the film.
The last half could have been exluded all-together but oh well.
Anyways, this was an awesome movie that I was not prepared for :).
