Review
If you watch the cartoon series when you were a kid,you would probably enjoy this movie. If you have no idea about the cartoon series, you probably won't have a clue when you are watching this .
Unlike any of the Wachowski brothers movies,this has to be the most brightest(in terms of colour). It is indeed visually brilliant and sadly that is only enjoyed if you watch this on the big screen. The visual effects are nice but at times are way too much but that is the way the speed racer cartoon is supposed to be and the Wachowski brothers didn't change it.
Casting for this movie was not bad except for the fat kid. He gets alittle irritating at times (the monkey acts better).
I have always liked the Wachowski brothers way of storytelling. But after Speed Racer,i hope they return to the darker ways of storytelling to which they are good at.

Best Quote
Minx: [after seeing Speed race] He's going to be very good.
Racer X: No, he's going to be the best... if they don't destroy him first.
