Review of Death Race (2008) by Nick C — 04 Jan 2012
"Death Race" is one of those movies that makes checking out brain at the door mandatory. Moreover, having Paul Anderson was a suitable choice for such mindless violence and action.
The cast is a bit formulaic but they make up for that in presence and just overall badassness. Jason Statham is... well, Jason Statham and Tyrese is playing himself again, but it's perfect casting for a movie called "Death Race". Of course you have to have your dime piece hottie (Natalie Martinez) as the copilot for the Frank character.
If you enjoy crazy action and some ubber-violence mixed in with some gore, check out "Death Race". I found this one really enjoyable because I enjoy all of those things. The overall feel of the film was also nice and gritty too, nothing shiny or polished... just balls to the wall action with some fun scenes. Recommended.
