Additional Information
Based on the 1960s Japanese-manga-derived animated TV series of the same name, SPEED RACER follows the adventures of the title character (Emile Hirsch), a young race car driver who sits behind the wheel of the lightning-fast Mach 5 vehicle. Aided by his family, which includes Pops Racer (John Goodman) and Mom Racer (Susan Sarandon), and his devoted doe-eyed girlfriend, Trixie (Christina Ricci), Speed racks up victory after victory, but still lives in the shadow of his late older brother, Rex (Scott Porter), who died in a race. When Speed garners the wrath of Royalton Industries, he must team up with the enigmatic Racer X (Matthew Fox) to defeat the ruthless corporation.<BR>Written and directed by Larry and Andy Wachowski, the masterminds behind the MATRIX films, SPEED RACER replaces the gritty techno sheen of that blockbuster series with a polished, brightly hued virtual reality. Though the eye-popping visuals threaten to eclipse the acting, the fine cast gamely makes the most of their green-screen environment, particularly the likable Hirsch, who won acclaimed for his decidedly different INTO THE WILD role, and LOST's always-noble Fox. Adding to the movie's giddy mood are Paulie Litt and his chimp companion, who provide comic relief as Speed's playful younger brother, Spritle, and Chim Chim, respectively. While definitely a highly stylised film, SPEED RACER is a movie meticulously designed to appeal to families and kids, especially the Spritle-like young ones.

  • ok but could be better

    The story begins with Speed Racer who is a young man with natural racing instincts whose goal is to win The Crucible, a cross-country car racing rally that took the life of his older brother, Rex Racer.

With the offer to Speed denied, Royalton wants to ensure that Speed will not win races. Speed finds support from his parents and his girlfriend Trixie and enters The Crucible in a partnership with his one-time rival, Racer X, seeking to rescue his ...

  • Speed Racer -Review

    I loved Speed Racer the movie. It was all kinds of entertaining, but this DVD release is pitiful. I'm afraid to open it because I may want to return it given that the little sticker about the digital copy on the front tells some disappointing news. There are barely any extras. What's that about? I know there has to be all sorts of goodies they could have released with it but they're not going to. Not yet anyway. WB has surpassed even Disney's level of greed because in addition to the lack of actual extras, according to the sticker on the front of the copy I bought the Digital Copy (which you have to get *separately* which will take more time and "additional charges apply") won't work on anything Mac. Windows Media all the way, apparently. Lame since WM has given me tons of trouble. One of ...

    Bit silly, but ideal for kids or juvenile adults! I enjoyed it, as did numerous 5 - 10 year olds. Animation and actual footage go together well.
