Speed Racer

[dreamer_easy]

Speed Racer was fun. Solid script, good performances, bold style, gorgeous VR landscapes. The kid totally and unexpectedly stole the movie. Even the Inevitable Rap Cover Version Over The End Credits wasn't too noxious. My aging brain did have trouble following some of the action... or was it that the cars were unconvincingly massless, and so a lifetime's experience of how real objects move was useless? Or simply that my entire visual cortex burned out in the first five minutes?

It burned out your visual cortex, I can vouch for that. Those colors can do that....

I actually liked it too. The kid reminded me of my youngest son.
