this is cartoon with real people... or izzit people in cartoon???

keepin my mind clear... fr the trailer its too much cartoon to my liking but mayb there's a few surprise that i'll like.

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...!!!

to make a movie like Speed Racer, i don't think there is any other way than doing it like the cartoon. Its like Astro Boy (which a CGI feature is coming). How in the world is someone gonna make a live action and turn it serious. the Brothers could have make Camaro the new Mach 5. The WRL could be Indy RL or Japanese GT... it'll make it all look real but you know what... the whole world will be going after the Brothers blood.

I don't think there is no better way to make Speed Racer than what we got now. Its a cartoon yes... too much color yes... but what do you expect from a movie when main character name is Speed Racer...!!!

Box Office figure don't look good. Estimated slightly over USD20mil on the first week. This kinda movie need to do good on the first 2-3 weeks. Too "niche" to last for many week.

If the current momentum continue, SR2 don't look too rosy.

critic is only the writer's comment. it may not be like yours. heck... i love Starship Trooper and its also universally panned. if i were to listen to critic, i would not have watch ST at all...!!!

depends on how big your hearts is. Speed Racer is not everyone's cup of tea. As i have said earlier, its a cartoon with real people inside. everything else is cartoon. If you think you can handle that then Speed Racer is actually a nice ride.

of cuz not... for a start Rain is only a bit part player. not bad for his acting. better then many singer turning in their first acting role.

... can i suggest that... a 2nd viewing perhaps...!!!
