Speed - kuoleman kyydissä

Speed is a well made fantastic movie that has a great scale of action and crime.

Keanu Reeves plays a cop, Jack, that angers a former bomb squad member, Howard (played by Dennis Hopper), by foiling his plans at taking hostages. Howard decides plant a bomb on a bus. When the bus hits 50 MPH, it is armed. It does so, and now Jack has to keep this bus going above 50 MPH, or else it blows up. He also meets Annie (played by Sandra Bullock) and she does the driving, while Jack does the defending.

Keanu Reeves was awesome, and Sandra Bullock did a great job. Her character was almost like a sidekick, and Reeves had pretty solid chemistry with her. Dennis Hopper did a pretty smooth job at playing the villain, and the other cast members did a good job as well. The plot is nicely done, not confusing, and well understood. The pacing is also really nice for an 1 hr and 50 mins.

Speed is an all time classic, and it still holds up to this very day. Great movie.
