Too Much Action?

Rating: 10/10 (13 October 2000)

If a film can suffer from too much action, then "Speed" is guilty of that. Otherwise, it is an almost flawlessly crafted action film, arguably without peer. Reeves makes an excellent hero, and Bullock just about steals the film with her fun and gutsy character. It starts off with a bang, and never lets up. Action films don't get better than this.
