Overrated and overhyped

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Kamila Bell
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Movies rarely get worse than this.Zero plot. Zero acting talent. Zero entertainment. Zero genuinely exciting action / racing. Too many driving scene's so obviously done on trailers. So tired, of seeing film-makers believe that they can stick a pretty face into a film, with ludicrously unrealistic talent, and get away with it. I was so close to turning this crap off at 22 mins when the plane lands. Ludicrous from Infamous. Why are production values & talent so very low? Channel 4 films could have made 10x quality films that genuinely entertained on this wasted budget. This movie, which really should appeal to petrolheads, totally sucked the life out of car-based movies. Even the nice cars on show couldn't salvage it.I hope whichever mugs stumped up the $26m for this dire dog-poo effort went bankrupt, so that they can't dish out tat like this ever again.

This "film" is the worst movie I have ever seen. The worst. Ever. The dialogue makes Annette Funicello movies seem like Shakespeare. The action is so phony as to be reprehensible. The car "races" are nothing more than two-second clips spliced together so that it is impossible to comprehend. The fight sequences are a series of unrelated two second clips of people bouncing off walls or falling.The plot is indistinguishable. It seems like some hot chick with engineered boobs and a fake all over tan likes a war hero guy who is violent and has no looks or personality. Then, there's the war hero's brother, who dresses like a flamboyant fop circa 1967. Then, there's their uncle,, who is a fat slob and wants to marry the hot chick. Then, there's Eddie Griffin, whose dialogue seems also to be edited in unrelated two second clips. I seriously doubt that a movie has ever been or could ever be worse than this mess. I fell asleep twice during this sleep-inducing bore fest,, but I rewound it and forced myself to watch it, if only to document just how messed up a movie can be.

What do you get when you combine horrible acting, a stupid plot, and atrocious camera work? The movie "REDLINE".This film was so bad it was painful to watch. The only reason I gave it a "1" was because the numbers didn't go any lower. The lead actress is hot, which is nice, but casting needs to learn to hire hot actresses that can ACT. Ditto for the rest of the cast.And the script? Puhleese! Could it have been any more stupid? You've got gorgeous fast cars, a hot actress, so I guess they decided a script wasn't important. The irony is, with a little bit of work on the plot line and the dialogue, this could have been decent. OK, a LOT of work. Still, if you're going to spend millions on a movie, how about spending a few dollars on the script? The camera work was a joke. Clearly the cars are NOT going fast, and the angles did not create suspension or excitement. The "jiggly camera" and fast cut editing can save some parts of a film, but not ALL of it! This is what happens when rich people decide to make a movie using their own cars and girlfriends, and they ignore the advice of seasoned film makers.Either that or everyone who contributed on this project in a creative fashion needs to go back to film school.Don't waste your time. You'll finish the movie and regret that you'll never get those 90 minutes of your life back. That time could be better spent doing something else... like sleeping, or going to the bathroom.

OK first off I generally like any type of car movie. I mean I actually liked Fast and the Furious enough to sit through it without wanting to turn it off.....even the Too Fast sequel was good enough to watch.But this movie was just.........bad.....Not only is it totally implausible that people are street racing $250,000 cars. Rare cars like the Ford GT and Shelby Cobra that no one is racing...cars that no one would race in a street race no matter how rich the stakes were. It is just not believable......Then there is the $3-million stakes being tossed down which is also just too unreal to believe.....Now it must be said that Natalie Bjorlin is so striking, and so fetching in this movie that you cannot look away. She just exudes beauty and sexiness beyond the scope of this movie and is in fact the ONLY reason we kept watching it.The rest of the cast is horrible..... Eddie Griffin tries to crack some jokes and play a high roller but while he acts it fine, the whole image seems forced....but beyond that everyone is rough.....even the random scantily clad hotties all over the movie are not enough.....The plot is lame, the character development is nil and the entire movie seems random and pointless.....random fights happen and car chases follow so $250,000 cars can be wrecked the whole time.....The bad guys are so moronic, they have no reason to be bad, they just are......unless you are in love with Natalie Bjorlin, there is not one reason to watch this movie..... and even that, as hot as she is, it really not enough to watch it with any real interest....
