What's not to like? Well, everything -- unless you're the star, who seems convinced that this embarrassingly cloddish biopic-slash-thriller actually flatters both him and its subject.

I can't recommend Speed Kills to anyone because it's not even good enough to gawk at.

Following on from the recent Gotti, John Travolta once again toplines a film which is undeserving of his talents with Speed Kills.

Easily one of the worst movies to star John Travolta (Eyes of an Angel, The Experts) this is an slog of an Biopic Thriller that has some of the most wonky effects I’ve seen in a direct to VOD movie. Not even the director of Texas Chainsaw 3D wanted his name on it

Good God, this was awful! I mean putrid. Seemed like a parody movie you would see on Adult Swim. I guess they figured Travolta could carry it, he could not.
