Review of The Circuit (2008) by Muffin M — 07 Oct 2013

Estranged from her father Al Shines (Bill Campbell) - former king of the US race car circuit, young and feisty Kylie Shines (Michelle Trachtenberg) has plenty to prove. She has learnt more than a thing or two growing up on the race track and has developed into a sensational driver herself. Passing her brother along the way she soon establishes herself and becomes a real star and contender on the circuit.

Racing onto the scene comes Kid (Drew Fuller), a hot young competitor with considerable talent, who challenges Kylie and becomes a major distraction for her on and off the track. But when Kylie gets carried away and becomes embroiled in sponsorship exploitation big Al steps in to bring her down to earth and back to the track by challenging her and Kid to a high-stakes race.

Also stars Paul Rae, Dominique D'Arnell, Maurice Dean Wint and Tommy Lioutas.

Directed by Peter Werner.
