The computer effects and races were absolutely mind-blowing and beautiful. The story was kind of all over the place, but I think had some good messages and plenty of twists and turns.
Ricci looks so gorgeous, and Emile actually was ok as Speed.
Overall, I thought it was a very entertaining movie and it's kind of a shame that it's been doing so terrible at the theater.

Well I don't know if you knew it, but Speed Racer is based on a cartoon. I think thats the look they were going for.

Yeah I know but Transformers was based on a cartoon and it didn't look like speedracer and it did awesome at the box office.
People look at that and shrink away like ants under a microscope in the sun.

I really wasn't trying to make a point. More or less just mocking you Kronker.
Visually I thought Speed Racer was way better than Transformers. And the story was not nearly as gay and childish as Transormers either. Michael Bay is a giant douche bag who makes terrible movies and thinks mindless action sequences can make up for a complete lack of plot.

True but sometimes mindless action is fun.
I'll rent speedracer because of your endorsement. Otherwise, it would have gone unwatched.

Yeah check it out...It's a really weird movie and I may have just liked it cuz I was trippin balls and it looked fantastic on the IMAX.
But I have a feeling I would have enjoyed it with a "normal" perspective as well.
