Before this film i didn't give and care about cars, Now i am a car guy

Rating: 8/10 (15 April 2002)

This film (That i was DRAGGED to by my friends) was an entire 180 from what i thought it was going to be. I figured, "Fast cars and the losers who race them" I got a semi-intelligent film with perfect casting and a well thought out story line. the film dipped into some overdone effects in the first race but afterwards it was great.
The film really hits home with the casting and dialogue, the whole film has a feel like they just set the camera down in the middle of the street racing scene and every line feels improvised. (Which i found out on the DVD that many of the lines were). it raises itself just above the typical "Teen" movie but still keeps true to that youthful genre. I hated cars before i saw this film, I never thought anything about racing or about cars in general and i thought only idiot greese monkeys touched them for fun, now i've souped up my cutlass supreme and race almost every week.
