My whole family loved this movie!, 5 December 2008
10/10
Author: ivyblueraincoat from United States

I was pleasantly surprised at how good this movie was. We are not really race fans, but the story was really interesting and the racing looked really cool. The two main characters were really good. It was good to see a married couple get along in a movie. I'm sure we would have enjoyed it more if we knew more about car racing. The racer crew guys were really funny. My 12 year-old son really liked the guys that worked in the workshop. My teenage daughter really liked the love story between the two young characters. Usually movies made about southern people are so unlike what it is like to live here in the south, but this was not the case here with this movie. I highly recommend this movie to anyone interested in car racing or in a good feel good or family movie.
