Critics Consensus

Silly and noisy, Torque is stylish fun for the MTV crowd.

Sheila Johnston

London Evening Standard

Shot like a feature-length commercial, Torque is as bright and shiny and inconsequential as a chrome hubcap.

Silly and violent, mostly comprised of stunts.

Blessed with a tongue-in-cheek script, plenty of burning-rubber chases, and a sense of its own ridiculousness.

Rated: 3/5

The good news is Kiwi Martin Henderson manages to escape this trainwreck (literally at one point) of a movie with his reputation intact.

Rated: 2/5

I have fond memories of watching Torque as a kid - it was like a motorcycle version of The Fast and the Furious! However, rewatching it as an adult reveals its poorly directed CGI, cheesy acting, and predictable plot. Not the worst thing to say the least. Grading: D+

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

Absolutely fantastic for schlock fans. Actions scenes are deliciously ridiculous. A true thrill ride beginning to end, also quite technically impressive. Pure badass, 2000's vibe, super entertaining.

Only reason this isn't one star for me is because Torque is one of the funniest unintentional comedies of all time.
