> put it off as long as i could but my 14 year-old was all like "lets go i wanna see this with you, it'll be cool. she's into all things asian and specially Tokyo. we both agreed on the movie S T E A M I N G P I L E O F S H I T !!!!
too familiar screenplay, bad acting, bad dialogue, shots of the racing were too tight, no insight into HOW it's done, you can't race and have meaningful conversations with your passengers, you can't learn japanese overnight, if any of those actors were 18 and under i am a leprechaun, the crowded intersection scene was laughable-- poor setup/foreshadowing and the CGI sucked, too much CGI in the downhill finale, no character developpement (except fot the lead female) and lastly: why do they insist on stunning us with sound in the theatres? my ears rang for 4 hours...couldn't fall asleep!!!
PS if you want to see the same movie on a smaller scale watch: Kart Racer, same movie...better movie!!
