That's probably the most flawed movie that I still ended up loving to death.

I dunno why people disliked it. Basically the second best thing the Warchowskis has ever done.

After Bound.

The narrative device of "explain a future event as it's happening" was just a thing back then.
A-Team did it too, twice.

It's a weird thing. It's so zany and silly that it wraps around to being a genuinely good time. It's not an unpopular opinion these days to love Speed Racer.

We used to have empires ruled by emperors. There used to be kingdoms lead by kings. Now all we got are countries.

I'd consider the biggest fault with the movie being that it couldn't decide whether it wanted to cater primarily to kids or young adults / grown fans of the original, and the two halves mixed like oil and water.

But the parts I liked, I adored. The camera zooming in on John Goodman's greco-roman wrestling ring will never fail to get a smile out of me.

He's consistently awesome in every role, I agree.

As dumb as the "hot wheels" racing was, the "rally" scenes were great.
Let it go ahead and do both. At least we all get half a great movie.

Yeah, the middle act revolving around Casa Cristo was hands-down the best part of the movie - the race itself, Pops going greco-roman, the mountaintop brawl (which was incidentally the only point in the movie where Spritle and Chim-Chim's antics were welcome and not a burden).

I'm a bit biased though, I've always loved rally race flicks ever since watching the original Herbie movie as a kid (it's no coincidence that my username has '53' in it).

I remember watching this on HBO Max and was very impressed by it. Always wanted to see it since I was a kid.

There should be a game of this with next gen graphics.
