Review of Need for Speed (2014) by Timm S — 05 Apr 2015
Ok so 4 stars may seem REALLY aggressive for this movie however - hear me out ! I remember watching gone in 60 seconds and loving every min of it and only having one good eye roll at the jump at the bridge .
Since then fast and the furious took over this car movie world and while VERY entertaining they are about as believable as a loony toons cartoon. Need for speed is very straight forward ! And I'm going to argue that it's quite believable , outside of a wild two lane jump in a mustang and cops being told to use deadly force on street racing - I believed every min / every turn / every crash and every drift.
The filming is very solid !!! And love the big wide angle shots . They also show what it's like to crash at 200 mph and how cars that fast go airborn when they wreck. I was very surprised at this movie - very solid - very entertaining - very believe able!
