  I think people are expecting a lot more out of this movie and I will admit, some scenes could be a little more uppity and interesting, but this is one of the few movies I've seen that sticks exactly to the show it originally came from. This movie is a slight revamp of the Speed Racer anime from the 1960's but everything is dead on. Although, some advice; Kids 10 and under probably shouldn't see it, (they'll either be bored stiff or love it enough to see again), there is one small fight scene that's pretty entertaining with all the cheesy punches but it's nowhere near traumatizing, and to understand where this movie is coming from, you should probably watch an episode or two of the series. I did, and I found the movie a lot better and far more interesting than the show. Secondly, you should probably bring a pair of sunglasses or something. There is A LOT of color in this movie and the racing parts, although incredibly exciting, are almost seizure inducing with all the flashing lights. It puts a bit of a strain on the eyes but it's still a good watch. These races are far better than NASCAR. My dad saw it with me and he thought it would be a bad movie, but he said he was pleasantly suprised. A lot better than he thought it would be. I give it an 8/10 because it's a great movie to watch. Not ground breaking, all-action like Ironman (the two films shouldn't even be compared to each other)but still entertaining -and some scenes were cheesy, but hey, If you're still unsure, go see it on a Tuesday when tickets are only 5$. I think they did a good job of summing up 50+ episodes in under three hours. I like it.
(8/10)
