Movie Info

Eddie Griffin and Nathan Phillips put the pedal to the metal in stunt coordinator-turned-director Andy Cheng's supercharged auto thriller. As a serious collection of speed freaks gather to hit the streets in hopes of winning 24 million dollars, every rule is broken and the law simply doesn't have enough horsepower to ensure that justice is served. With the speedometer maxed out and the past becoming nothing more than a fading image in the rearview mirror, these drivers will do whatever it takes

PG-13, 1 hr. 33 min.

It's not so much a film as a cheesy garage calendar scantily-clad, over-made up "cheap" women as hood-ornaments.

The whole thing is pretty stupid, but Angus Macfadyen is watchable as the villain.

An idiotic action thriller, vanity project and testosterone-filled guilty pleasure whose sole purpose is to show off a fleet of million-dollar Ferraris and Lamborghinis belonging to fledgling movie mogul Daniel Sadek.

It's hard to say whether gleaming automobiles or women's bodies are given the more fetishlike treatment in this vanity production.

The cars in the film are treated with more respect than the women.

The movie Redline is all about surfaces, for young men with testosterone to burn.

It's your typical studio vehicle so to speak, about the illegal world of underground racing with hot women, no brains, and a paper thin plot that's basically non-existent or relevant to the events on screen.

Mindless auto racing film a drag for teens and up.

The movie would play almost as a postmodern parody of 1960s drive-in fare if it weren't put forward with such a silly straight face.

This is one of those movies in which virtually no one comes out unscathed.

A PG-13 celebration of hot chicks, fast cars, and deplorable behavior is like diet Mountain Dew, near-beer, or an expletive-free version of Straight Outta Compton -- a tame, watered-down version of the real thing.

Looks like a music-video without the music--sleek visuals, lots of things moving around the screen, girls posing, and guys dressed like it's the 1980s. Steer clear.

The makers of this self-indulgent autopalooza take a Ferrari engine, Porsche speed, Mercedes horsepower, and a Shelby Mustang chassis and somehow combine them into a Yugo.

Redline mostly feels like one long stunt intercut with the boring parts of a porn movie.

Chicks and cars, chick and cars.... two things that blokes love! But is that enough to warrant watching this movie? Just download it or spend a dollar at the video store, not worth 10 bucks for a movie ticket. But anyways, the cool thing about this car flick is of course... the NIIIIICCCCCCCCEEEEEE collection of
