Need for Speed: Most Wanted: The Movie

Rating: 7/10 (24 December 2009)

Super charged car porn actioner starring Vin 'One Chin' Diesel as chief organiser and main speed demon in an underground street racing gang, the lawless swine.
Paul Walker plays Brian O'Conner, a man so gosh damned handsome you pray for a head on collision so that some flying shrapnel can ruin his all American looks, the new kid in town who foolishly bets away the pink slip to his own car in a race he fails to win, meaning the vehicle winds up belonging to Chin Diesel.
Through scenes of dialogue so macho the directors hand appears intermittently to wipe seminal fluid off the camera lens O'Conner wheedles his way into the affections of Diesel, much to the annoyance of several of his gang members. What Chin doesn't realise is that O'Conner isn't all that he seems.
He's a bloody copper.
Cue the inevitable divided loyalties as the police start to close in on the street racers and O'Conner must choose between his job and his squeeze.
So, the plot is utter drivel and all but a remake of Point Break, but it matters not, kids. Gather round, now, gather round. It's all about the action as souped up 'rides' go fender to fender at speeds that are, quite frankly, perilous. Honestly, somebody could get hurt.
Terrible in almost every sense, the high speed chaos more than makes up for it so, if you can find it in yourself to just switch your brain off and just go along for the ride, you may well enjoy this.
