The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

OK first of all, users like "toybird" ruin this site... Is he like some guy that took part in the production of the movie? You cant be serious to give this movie a 10 star...heres why Acting: HORRIBLE. Enough said..Quality: Dialogue is terrible. The Race scenes aren't even fully played through. All the races are basically cut up scenes of a short race and pasted together to form a full race.Story: Lame story. something that you can tell only took a few weeks to write.Authenticity: The racing was really fake. An Xb CANNOT in anyway beat a Bimmer.Take my advice and save the couple bucks and rent a different movie..

First off, I rent every car movie that comes out because I love cars. But this film has changed my whole outlook on what people think is acceptable as a car flick. This film was terrible from the cars they chose to the dialog they spoke. It was predictable all the way to the end. Except for the very end when ***SPOILER*** the cop comes at them with a gun for no reason and gets hit by the car. They had no need to put that in unless they felt that someone just HAD to die.***MORE SPOILERS*** The cars they used were all stock and couldn't even be considered "race" cars by any means. It would have made the movie that much better if they had at least tried to find some cars that were modified for racing. It wouldn't of even cost them any money. You can look on car forums and find hundreds of people with modified cars that would be more than willing to get their car feature in a film.The dialog was so predictable. It seemed as though the actors were stalling their words, like they were forgetting their lines and trying their hardest to remember.

First of all; Why put a 2009 Nissan GTR on the cover, when a MID 90s model was used in the film. The actors/actresses were horrible, I didn't even recognize any of them...perhaps they are all beginners!! The Cars used in this film were whacked, and the races were poorly put together. The races looked slow, and why the hell would you race a SCION XB(with hubcaps) and a old 5series BMW(looked plain). At least make the cars look beefed up, put some after-market rims on them. Everything just looked awful, and poorly directed. The story is just plain out weird and disorganized. I think that the only plus side to this movie, is the hot actress....But thats all I can say good about this film.....I would never recommend this film to anyone, unless they've never watched television before.....

First off, this cover shows a Ford Mustang, and looks like a 350z. Neither cars seemed to be in there. It is very obvious this is a low production film. I'm not saying that low production films are bad though, however if the movies about flashy fast race cars, the producers gotta spend some money. The most expensive car in there would probably be between a Honda or Subaru. Acting was horrible, cars were cheap, the race scenes lacked what at least fast and the furious had. The whole showing the driver, then showing them press the clutch and shifting gears, yeah they screwed up on that. This is where my "spoiler" comes in.. at the last "race", there's this narration of the race which is ridiculous, it's suppose to be a police officer in a helicopter? i guess, but it just sounds like horrible teens that don't know what they're talking about. Races are about 30-45 seconds each, normally I would assume the circuit takes at least a minute per a lap. Everything just wasn't done right, just re-watch one of the fast and the furious movies instead of renting/buying this movie.
