Review of Speed Racer (2008) by Aaron T — 19 Jul 2010

I had no interest in this movie. I though it looked like it had no bearing on the original series even though the series was incredibly cheesy. But I must admit, the Wachowski's did a great job on this film.

They did this movie the only way it could have been done. Everything in the movie other than the characters are CG, so they were able to catch the cartoony ridiculousness in all it's glory. And like the original series, there was a lot of plot geared towards family togetherness.

unless you're into lifetime movies, you don't see that to this extent anywhere else. I'm not sure if it's just me or not, but this movie was simple amazing.
