First, let me say that I just saw it. I didn't mind it. It had its moments. Was it the most brilliant, make-you-think, feel good movie of our generation? Hardly, but it wasn't that bad if you take into consideration a few things. Which leads me to my second point. This is a drag racing movie. Nothing more. Let's not EVER forget this people. If you were looking for The English Patient or Saving Private Ryan or Titanic look elsewhere. Think back to all the drag racing movies that have come out since you have been watchin movies (or earlier). Were any of them spectacular cinematic achievements? Doubt it. THEY'RE NOT MEANT TO BE. They're meant to show off phat rides, ladies, and chase scenes. That's what they've always been about. QUIT LOOKING FOR ACADAMY AWARD MATERIAL! It's fantasy people. Quit looking for meaning, outstanding acting and above all quit looking for realism. Don't be so nit-picky. Its a movie. They don't always make perfect sense. Enjoy the visuals. Tell me you didn't like the cars!? If this has been said already, I apologize.
