Totally fascinating movie. When I first sat down to watch it, I was concerned it would mess with my memory of the old classic cartoon. Nothing could be further from the truth! While highly computerized, there was also that campy atmosphere. At times, it felt like a movie about the 60's with all the bright colors and interesting clothing patterns. Even the camera shots of the villain racers and the way the villain racers were portrayed gave homage to 60's/70's action flicks...not to mention some of the fight scenes which were sort of James Bondish.
The story was also great. Yea, I am one of those cliché people, I guess, but I loved the messages about standing up for what you believe in, not giving up, doing what is right, etc.
I loved the show as a child and was determined to see this movie while in my zone (that means alone). I snuck off from work early while the hubby was still at work and while the children were in school and at the sitters to get my full enjoyment of the movie.
