Good racing

Rating: 5/10 (6 February 2002)

When I saw this movie on video I had great expectations! I was a little disappointed. Sure it had excitement, cool action scenes and Sylvester Stallone but the plot lacked something. It is hard to follow "the red thread" as we say in Sweden. They should have skipped the "love story" and concentrated on the talented rookie Jimmy Bly's journey from insecure youngster to a man with principles and will. And I could have done without the bad computer animated parts of crashes and flipping coins. Cart cars does not fly up in the air when crashing, not THAT far anyway... Still, the racing scenes are great excitement and Stallone is cool. See it!
