Tom Cruise is once again put in a role he's unsuited for.

Rating: 3/10 (18 October 2003)

This feeble attempt at "Top Gun in a race car" has neither the story, nor the supporting cast, nor the excellent sound track and cinematography of Top Gun, resulting in a regrettable and forgettable film. Tom Cruise is out of his element (as he was in Top Gun); he should stick to lawyers and sports agents. In the end, Hollywood hype made the film successful, but 20 years from now everyone will be wondering why.
