      Run the kart~

      When I saw it, I thought of a super cute game running karting. . . .

      The story is really stupid. But the scene was really well done. Still worth going to the cinema. But I'm still not used to this kind of violent and bloody film. This film remakes 75 years of Stallone's Death Race2000. Grandpa Tailong probably didn't expect that the society is still so stable after the millennium. Jason Statham's acting is as bad as ever. As always, pretending to be deep and forceful. But he is really...

      Simple way to satisfy like a pig, I love to eat

      Violent aesthetics in violence. In fact, this film finally combines the simplest elements of a simple entertainment film to make a violent film, the ultimate racing car without a plot, guns, explosions, murder, and revenge. Gore in gore.

      Low in low entertainment. It is a full demonstration of the animal side of human beings who have not completely separated from it, and it is the annihilation of human civilization and the annihilation of human nature.

      The film verifies and...

      Stimulus 2008

      The style is too different, I don't know if anyone thinks that the Shawshank redemption is

      almost the same. The

      first time I saw a Jason Statham movie was Turkish in Snatch . After cranking, I feel that this person has been completely stereotyped. This film is basically the same. It is still a way of excess hormones. But I always feel that even if there is an anti-equipment weapon, a flamethrower, and a crash, it is not as enjoyable as punching and kicking. Besides, this...

      New bottle of old wine, nothing new

      Old-fashioned movies, old-fashioned plots, old-fashioned actors.

      If it weren't for the violent catharsis, the blood-sucking racing car, the deadly gunfight, and the attractive heroine, this film would have no features at all. It can be said that it is the mixture of many fierce materials that makes this film an action film with only viewing value.

      The subject matter itself is not very flattering, and the handling method is not very flattering. It is estimated that the...

      Get addicted and die

      Rooted in the school's boys' dormitory, there is always an opportunity to watch such B-grade films. On a dark night this Thursday, a few classmates watched the recently popular "Death on Speed".
          As a fan, I took a few glances at Statham's performance in "Bank Robbery", but unfortunately, the final effect of the film was a little out of shape, with fancy racing cars, bloody gunfire, and brutal. The macho and the stunner-like heroine appear one after another to bombard the eyeballs. The...

      Anderson's speeding scenes are so ugly, I even suspect that he has never played "Need for Speed", but this kind of film does not require too much, it is considered a...

      After watching the "Fast and Furious" series and then looking back at Jason's classic a few years ago, it still feels like a "Dead Fly" classic! First of all, his plot is more exciting and full of tension. Although the racing car in the prison is not gorgeous at all, the design of its stunts and visual effects are perfect without bugs, and the various action scenes are more natural and coherent! In addition, Natalie Martinez is so beautiful, sexy and graceful~ It also adds a lot to the...

      Violent aesthetics have always been one of the favorites of blockbusters. Watching the armored car-like racing car speeding on the edge of death is an indescribable pleasure. No wonder the so-called ratings in it are so high, everyone is too...

      In order to confirm whether the best film of Paul Anderson is the black hole surface, I accidentally saw that this third-rate drag racing film was also made by...

      An adrenaline-stimulating and forgettable movie suitable for watching in theaters. It is a pity that domestic audiences do not have this...

    Evaluation action

    Judging from the filming and production process of the entire film, the quality of the film cannot be said to be particularly excellent. In addition to the end of the director, the producers, distribution companies, leading actors, scripts, etc. are constantly changing. The final product will inevitably have the feeling of a platter. However, considering that director Paul Anderson has always been a master of "usageism", this shouldn't...
