NASCAR fun for everyone!

Rating: 9/10 (26 January 2006)

Despite being a fictional team for NASCAR, "Days of Thunder" packs plenty of action both racing and excitement altogether. Tom Cruise plays the role of Cole Trickle, a feisty upstart who gets his breaks in being a stock car driver. Cocky and hotheaded his first win gets him pumped for more. With Robert Duvall as Harry Hogge Randy Quaid as Tim Daland, and Nicole Kidman as Dr. Lewicki, you got a winner! Being a winner isn't all what its cracked up to be. You got to be looking out for one another. And I liked the part where they played a prank on Trickle with that NC State Trooper who turned out to be a hot babe. I thought state troopers were rugged looking, then again who knows. The accident scene was plenty scary, and the troop incident went to Trickle's head a little too much. Now "Stroker Ace" is another movie I can recommend you if you want some humor to go along with. It contains all the names of NASCAR then and now. Crank up you engines folks, "Days of Thunder" is coming your way! Rating 4 out of 5 stars.
