Biggest pile of steaming turd I've seen in a long time.
Bunch of kids as the cast.
Main character trying to sound like batman grates instantly and throughout the film.
Thankfully the constant grinning bitch gay dies early on.
Female star is fugly
Waaaay too many scenes of their big fat headed annoying facial expressions
3/10
Avoid unless you're really really bored.

A 3? It deserves a minus score. Totally terrible film (it was bound to be I suppose). Who green lights scripts this bad and then gives $60million to make them into films. And I am sooooo sick of those plot devices, those moments that save the hero in the nick of time. How lucky are these people? I was starting to think Nolan had written it with the amount of times the hero was saved at the last second when the writer clearly couldn't think of a realistic way to get him out of a situation he'd put him in to. Also, how come they only serve a short jail term after killing so many police officers in those crashes?

Try watching Red Line IIRC, you'll find it in the tescos £3 dvd selection, that is, possibly the worst film i've seen.. Dont even own the rights to advertise the cars emblems

Totally agree. One of the rare times I got so bored with a film I switched it off. Fortunately I was watching it on a recent long haul flight back from Abu Dhabi.
One of the annoying things was the main character having to rely on a mate up in the sky watching for potential hazards and routes up ahead, rather than instinct and balls.

The engine sounds are more enjoyable then hearing that potato try to act.

"We'll roll our police cars into on coming traffic, that'll stop em"

Wasn't the "prize" of the race all the other cars, $7million worth... yet all of them got destroyed. Plus he entered with a promise to make someone else money and ended up in prison. I read a review on IMDB (one of many haters) where they were sick of the bad boy attitude throughout the film; putting other peoples lives at risk without any care in the world, and this from the so called "hero" of the thing. The whole film is just drive like an idiot, break the law, don't care who you force off the road/cause to crash, and in the end you'll get the girl and be 'the man'! A better ending would've been him crashing and exploding into that lighthouse and wiping out Keaton in the process. Then the final shot of the cops scrapping dead driver off the roads. I love how at the end it says "do not copy what you see here"... even though we've made it seem so awesome and cool and shown that whatever you do you'll get away with it!
