The cars are fast, but the acting made me furious.....

Rating: 1/10 (11 July 2001)

What do you get when you take Days of Thunder, add in two younger actors, and two equally attractive young actresses, and then put it all on the streets? A good idea. However, the additions of such clueless individuals as Ja Rule, and many other small players made my head hurt. The stunts were great, the cars were "Pretty" fast, and the women....nice. The script, ohhhhh my god, it made me wish I was watching Prison of the Dead. Now....another question...What do you get when you have two bad actors staring in a movie with a horrible script? Several things. One, an unemotional reading of the lines on the screen which came across as totally bland and seemed like it was a cold reading. Two, moments that were supposed to be funny, but just couldn't pull it off. Third, same as the latter, but with emotional moments. Fourth......one really bad and shameless plug...."You can have any brew you want, as long as it's a Corona." Ow! My aching head! Ow!
This movie does not deserve praise, it does not deserve to be making the money it has been, and I want my two hours of living back that I wasted giving this film a chance.
What have we learned from this? Well we learned that: "I was in The Skulls." and "I was in Pitch Black." ....are not impressive listings on one's resume.
Don't waste your time....
