Speed Racer Movie
I know it's been out a fair while, but I finally managed to watch this movie in the last few days and despite feeling it was going to be awful from the beginning, I was actually suprised that I watched it through to the end and actually managed to enjoy it, helped of course by having a rather sexy looking Christina Ricci. It's a serious no brainer comic book conversion and it's probably not a film that people into serious movies is likely to get any pleasure from and it looks and feels a little bit like the kids show Lazytown, but the characters actually have personality and as the movie goes on, you can actually empathise with them, which I really didn't expect to happen.
Have you seen it? What did you think of it?
