A cutting-edge action drama about an exciting cast of characters living life in the fastest of lanes, in the thrilling and dangerous world of high-tech car racing. Rookie Jimmy Bly (Kip Pardue) could go all the way, but not without the help of fallen legend Joe Tanto (Sylvester Stallone) or without the love of another racer's girl (Estella Warren).

Formula One race cars outshine the formula script. Go to Full Review

2/5
Predictable, risible but with flashes of directorial inspiration from Renny Harlin, this is less driven, more being taken for a ride. Go to Full Review

Andrew R @ADufresne Jun 14 It’s one of those bad movies that is still worth seeing. It somehow layers in unique character moments and action scenes into a story that is otherwise very predictable. See more Casey the B Jun 3 Terrible movie, I love it. Look, it's garbage but like a frozen cheese pizza, it can still be enjoyed... drunk. It's always been a favorite of mine but as a fan, you can skip this. See more Shad S Mar 19 It flaws were intentional and mocks the critics with out them knowing the films greatness, F1 the Brad Pitt film sees what it was doing back then and took it as partial inspiration. The joke on the critics? Gamers follow the action seamlessly with visual acuity and appreciate and recognize the turns in action and story where the average critic Cannot. an F1 film built for the Eyes trained like F1 racers. See more Kyle M 07/13/2024 Oft-times charismatic humor is a rare, pleasant effect, only acknowledged wakefully in bits, amidst how messily flawed and dull it sloppily ignites under utter indecisive coordination, inclusively between specious CGI and unheard script. (C-) See more Tyler S @tylerking24 07/10/2024 It was unbelievably generic, felt very dull, had some lazy writing, and had nothing to keep me entertained. I literally looked at my phone multiple times for 5 minutes and went back to the film seemingly not missing a thing. Even the graphics are super choppy and very unrealistic. See more mark g 07/05/2024 Nice talent assembled, but sadly without a script or direction. Really poorly done. See more Read all reviews
