Interesteg What makes it different from others?

pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

alexmcbeath-1 Truly awful, words can't describe how bad this movie is.

disastrousdallas Now i will be honest when i say i've only played a few Need For Speed Games so i will be reviewing this as an average watcher rather than a massive fan of the series.Simply put I don't hate this Movie, if anything I enjoy it, the movie doesn't throw anything in your face like the Fast and Furious Franchise, it's more down to earth with more likeable and believable characters, the star power behind the movie is better than its counterparts, Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad fame is incredible as the lead, Dominic Cooper the Villain does a wonderful job of being a conniving one.I honestly wouldn't know what to say this is just a movie i really like.

paultennisevans It's a car movie..... A brilliant car movie with great cars, actors and soundtrack. This is my favorite car movie ever! For me it has a therapeutic feel, like a surf movie, a simple concept with a deeper under current. Aaron Paul is awesome, no CGI! No one has suddenly learn't how to use a gun or be able to fight....they're drivers. I love it. The instrumental soundtrack is beautiful. Great car film.

Tweekums Tobey Marshall owns a garage on Mount Kisco, New York where he tunes high performance cars with his friends. He isn't too pleased when Dino Brewster, a rival from his racing days, turns up but he has an interesting offer; he wants Tobey to repair a Ford Shelby Mustang that he wants to sell for up to three million dollars; a quarter of which would go to Tobey. After the work is completed Tobey demonstrates just how fast the car is; this impresses car buyer Julia Maddon but not Dino as he thought he should test drive the car. Dino challenges Tobey to a street race to find out who is really the fastest driver, they are joined by Tobey's friend Pete and race in three Koenigsegg Agera R supercars. Tobey is set to win as Pete is preventing Gino from overtaking, Gino rams him causing the car to flip off the road and explode. Gino leaves the scene leaving Pete to go to jail for involuntary manslaughter.Two years later Tobey is released and wants revenge… by beating him in the 'De Leon'; an illegal supercar race where the victor gets to keep all of the cars. If he is to participate he will have to have to get a car, get a race invitation and get to California in under forty eight hours. He gets the car when Julia turns up in the Shelby Mustang. She insists on going with him and they quickly set off with Tobey's friend Benny flying overhead to check on traffic. Along the way they pick up friends Joe and Finn who drive their support vehicle. Just getting to California will be a problem; Dino has offered his rare Lamborghini to anybody who stops Tobey and they also have to stay ahead of the police. There problems are far from over when they get to California.I had heard that this film was a bit rubbish. To be honest that is a bit unfair; sure it isn't going to win any Oscars and the plot is very predictable but when it comes to the action it really delivers. Even if, like me, you aren't a car expert you can see that the cars that feature are something special. The races are exciting and the crashes are spectacular… and realistic rather than the CGI enhanced fake action we see in so many films these days. The cast do a solid enough job; notably Aaron Paul as Tobey and Imogen Poots as Julia. Dominic Cooper's Gino is a bit of a pantomime villain but that isn't out of place in a film such as this; similarly Michael Keaton's characters, race organiser 'Monarch' is over-the-top and a bit bizarre but still entertaining. Overall I'd say I enjoyed this far more than I expected; the story might be predictable but the execution kept me gripped from start to finish; I'd certainly recommend it to fans of the genre.
