I am floored!! This was one of the best movies I have ever seen. Absolutely brilliant!! It was far fetched and physics were certainly out the window, I have to refer back to the IGN movie review that stated that the Wachowski brothers immerse you into the world where it becomes believeable and real. Definitely go see this movie in IMAX, you won’t be sorry. This movie is a visual masterpiece!!! 9/10. ---

Really? I think watching the cars run through rediculous courses like that of Mario Kart or Sonic the Hedgehog Pinball would piss me off. ---

If you are a meathead you probably won’t think this movie is as good as it is. It actually has some depth but keeps its cartoon roots with the dialog and camera angles/transitions. ---

If you aren’t a speed racer fan, or know the speed racer series, you probably won’t like the flick or at least won’t understand how good it is. At least that’s what 2 of my coworkers say and they are more nuts about Anime and the Genre than I am. Case in point, one of them was guiding me through the first trailer about the subtle differences in versions of the cars and how one scene showed an ealier version of hte Mach 5 and another scene showed a different version. For the record, I have not seen it yet myself so this is just going off of 2nd hand reports. ---
