I'll be a proud dissenter. This movie was just FUN. I don't doubt it wanted to be anything else. Watching the final race on a 100 inch screen is the cinematic equivalent of a sugar rush. I'll back Chris and give the other posters a Spritle middle finger on my way out the door.:-P

Yay! Fellow Speed Racer lovers! This movie is what movies were originally meant to be: fun. The races are incredible, the atmosphere is light, and you can tell the actors are having a blast, so you can't help but have a blast with them. Oh, and the finale was mind-blowing.

dude. you just have to have seen the original show. thsi reviewer got it right on the money. the critics didn't get it because the watchowski brothers basically made a live action anime film based on the old classic cartoon series i grew up with. the effects were spectacular. the story made sense. why the hell did the critics hate this so much?! I thought it was a fantastic movie! It really blurs the lines between a children's film and that of an adult. It had it's cartoony moments and heart felt moments. I think avatar the last air bender is going to push that boundary also upon it's release this summer. but never the less. you just have to get speed racer to get what the watchowskis were doing here.

I loved the film but the part that left an impression on me were not the visuals but the family union and affection.

Their relationships made the characters worth cheering for.

A criminally underrated film.

This movie was extremely underrated. All I hear about are the SFX....not the core itself. The best parts of the film is the characters and their relationships. I was under the impression that what makes a movie good is how well it envelops you and immerses you in the experience. LOTR was not good based on special effects alone. I feel like a lot of people wont get it and choose not to accept it as a good movie...and that's sad. And just the passion in the final race (with mom's and other cast's voice overs) brought tears to my eyes. Very epic ending to a very epic, fun, and highly underrated experience. Very big thumb's up.

the reason it gets so much hate is because the lack of culture in a lot of american people. if you ever watched japanese anything you will love this movie, action packed, tense, funny, sad it had everything!
