Speed Racer is in the same vain as d*** Tracy. Its set in a cartoon world. the color, the action.... everything. I guess if one can accept Sin City, Speed Racer should be OK except its smack load with colors. I wouldn't call this a live action Speed Racer but real people in cartoon and its a great one.
From the trailer, i was afraid this one may be too "cartoon" to my liking but i am surprise. Take away all those "cartoon" i may not like it at all. the fight scene in the mountain was great. BTW, Racer X is so demn cool...!!! |

Hmm.. Thinking that I must watch this film since I'm an avid fan of Speed Racer. Especially Racer X. |

what i can say is, it's a very cheesy flick. but it was deliberately made cheesy, and it's a mixture of a very good amount of cheese factor.

Regarding Rain..
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I came into the cinema with the expectations so low that I guess I will be blasting the movie on my way home (go there because friend force me to take them there). But in the end.. I really love the movies man. The style (like when the commentator is talking.. 360 degree going over the screen Sure.. some part especially in the beginning where Speed talks to his family and so on.. makes me yawn man. But I overlooked it and don't mind too much about it.. since the other part of the movie have patch the weakness in it. I like this movie.. I think I'll be watching it again.

I'm glad I read the reviews (which were bad ones) because I went in and totally enjoyed the movie.
It's corny, it's colorful (obviously), it's shallow but fun, entertaining and creative. |

I heard this films is like "way over the top", e.g everything is super exaggerated...
I kinda expect generally favourable reviews, but mostly negative response. Almost all reviews are negative. This film and 'Get Smart' are the two riskiest movies this year. It could make or break. 'Speed Racer' seem to have fans who liked it, but generally, the movie had a thin plot-line and corny colour-fest. And I haven't even watched it... |

QUOTE(blah1134 @ May 10 2008, 04:46 PM) actually i heard they actually released the IMAX version and normal version at the same time... but u know lah IMAX malaysia, they never bring in the REAL IMAX movies, most of the time they just blow up the normal version of a particular movie to IMAX size, resulting in blurness (you can tell because be4 the movie starts, they will show "this is NOT an IMAX presentation). Movies like Transformers, Superman, etc had IMAX versions but we all couldn't see... Wish I could watch Speed Racer in IMAX... I was practically grinning throughout 3/4 of the movie... it was good, cheezy fun. Man I gotta plan my 2nd viewing... |
