YOU'RE TELLING ME MY SCHOOL TOOK ME TO SEE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL WHEN SPEED RACER WAS JUST RIGHT THERE??

The opening 12 minutes or so of this movie always makes me cry. It does an incredible job of providing all the backstory and exposition to get us to the “present time, ” and the start of the movie, all while making us emotionally invested in the family and the individual characters. My eyes tear up when the Racer family is watching on TV as Rex is, apparently, killed and I cry when Speed is about to break the all time record currently held by Rex as the family watches conflicted over whether they should be happy or sad if Speed breaks Rex’s record, but then Speed himself, racing against Rex’s “ghost, ” eases his foot off the accelerator so that he just barely misses breaking the record.

Then we get the great transition to the opening title including those great few notes of music.

And the movie has just begun.

I'd sometimes watch this movie twice in one day when i was a kid...i was obsessed

[Xavier.living.life.]

Ah yes the greatest live action anime adaptation ever made.

As someone who is like the racer family in the sense that racing and cars are in my blood, I’ve grown up around the the sport my whole life. On of the many reasons why I love this movie and say that it’s honestly the best racing movie is because it’s able to make people who don’t otherwise see racing this way, understand it and see it the way I and many others see it; As a fantastic sport in which the cars we see and drive on a daily basis have a soul, and both the driver and the machine are pushed to their absolute limits.

This movie deserves so much praise.

The one element I almost never hear mentioned with regard to excellence with this film is Michael Giacchino’s flawless utilization and masterful execution of the soundtrack. Not only does he do a terrific job of using musical cues as storytelling elements, but he does a fabulous job of emulating the way the source material does this as well. I swear, this guy never seems to miss when it comes to soundtracks.

I literally cannot watch the final race of this movie without getting chills like 40 times and tearing up.

Your favorite movie doesn't have John Goodman beating up a ninja, so it's inferior.

[melvinsims]

Rarely does a movie live up to the greatness of a classic tv series. But Speed Racer does. I highly recommend it to anyone who has children of any age.⭐⭐⭐⭐👍

The racing. Its the bloody racing in this film which is absolutely superbly done, especially that last one.

[theAstarrr]

I love the conclusion to the movie because it's about more than Speed himself - people can break through a rigged system. Remember, the Grand Prix before that was always rigged. His win was a huge deal

(Rigging, in any direction, for any person or race, is bad)

[Crimson.Creates]

"You're goddamn right."

The special effects on the movie actually gave it a fresh look. Wait till we get a reboot cartoon of the speed racer, i can bet you the makers of that reboot will take inspiration from this movies effects.

I always tell my friends “what’s your favorite movie”. I then go on to tell you have to movie this film and only this movie anytime you want to watch anything. A Movie that never gets old. My answer is always speed racer, it’s dynamic and engaging but not tiring. It’s a movie i could watch over and over forever.
