This is grand entertainment at it's finest!, with some incredible racing scenes, fantastic characters, and 2 amazing performances from Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman!. The Story while somewhat cheesy is simply fantastic!, and i thought this movie had some of the best racing scenes ever in a movie!, plus Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are simply amazing in this!. Tom and Nicole had wonderful chemistry together, and Robert Duvall shines as Cruise's friend and mentor!, plus The finale was great and very exciting!. This movie is very underrated and should be much higher then 5.4 in my opinion!, and i thought Cruise's acting was fantastic!, plus the scene where Rooker asks Cruise to drive his car at Daytona in the hospital room, is really moving. One of my favorite moments, is when Cruise and Rooker decide to race in there wheelchairs, and the ending was great and made me grin!, plus it's very well made and written as well!. This movie works extremely well due to Tom's great charisma, and the cast, and i thought the romance scenes were great!, plus it had some good humorous moments as well. This is grand entertainment at it's finest, with some incredible racing scenes, fantastic characters, and 2 amazing performances from Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, and i say Go see it immediately!. The Direction is Fantastic. Tony Scott does a wonderful job here, with wonderful camera work, great angles, injecting lots of style, and keeping the film at an extremely fast pace!. The Acting is wonderful!. Tom Cruise is amazing as always, and is amazing here, he has an extremely cocky and arrogant character, but he's extremely likable, due to his great charm and charisma, he had wonderful chemistry with Nicole Kidman, was fantastic in the acting department, had some cool lines, as always flashed that great smile of his, and was just a lot of fun to watch!.(Cruise Rules!!!!!!). Nicole Kidman is stunningly gorgeous, and is amazing as always, she is extremely likable, very caring had that great sexy accent, had wonderful chemistry with Cruise, and while she didn't really have all that much to do her presence was always very clearly felt! (Kidman Rules!!!!).Robert Duvall is wonderful as Cruise's Mentor, he seemed to be enjoying himself, had some great scenes with Cruise was intense, and was just perfect for this role!. Michael Rooker is fantastic as always and here is no different, he had that great look determination on his face as always, had an extremely cool character, and cracked me up a couple of times too i loved him! (Rooker Rules!). Randy Quaid played a role that was normal for once, and i bought it!, great job even though he didn't have much to do. Cary Elwes is OK here, as the main opponent, but we don't get to learn enough about his character really,as they just threw him in there halfway into the movie, he was OK i guess. Rest of the cast are fine. Overall Go see it immediately!. ***** out of 5
