Speed Racer

4 stars out of 5

Speed Racer, an action-packed PG movie that makes every head spin in the movie theatre. Directed by Andy and Larry Wachowski, this blindingly colourful movie, set in the future, revolves around a race-car crazed world, where it was bigger than the World Series.

Speed Racer, a young man who has spent his whole life around cars, considering his family owns a car-making company, is haunted by the ghost of his long-lost brother, whose race car had crashed on the race track. Speed is determined to be as good as Rex Racer and finds himself having the opportunity to race for the world's biggest racing organization.

Struggling between love of racing and love for his family's business, he finally turns down the offer. The Royalton Company, however, threatens their family if Speed doesn't race for them and one thing leads to another and turns Speed's life inside out.

There are secrets that need to be revealed and this movie has many. Scene by scene, this movie never fails to stop your heart from pounding at all the right moments; every race is breathtaking, every moment is a feast for the eyes, plus the storyline is not too shabby.

Those who get dizzy easily should not watch this movie, those who love speed and power should definitely watch it. It's worth the money, and worth the time, don't miss it!
