Greatest Street Racing Movie EVAR!!!!

Oh man....it was clear from the get go, that this is one top-notch film...both the acting and the quality of the film itself was Oscar-worthy!!! What a great racing movie! One can only give this fine piece of cinematic gold the respect it rightly deserves...being a car enthusiast myself, I watched this movie's several street races, and judging by the uber-realistic sound loops and the fact that a Scion xB could EASILY outrun an M5 engine-swapped BMW...I can only say that the realism was astounding. The acting...superb. These no-name actors give the performance of a lifetime! It seems as if they are dubbed over, speaking in a giant echo tunnel, and it gives the movie that magical B-movie feeling I was looking for!!! Anyways...be sure to rent this one for SURE, especially if you're a tried and true street racer type like me! Also don't forget to stab yourself in the eye after watching this fine piece of work, because you won't want to watch ANYTHING ELSE as long as you live!

Dueces!
