Movie Reviews of Gone in 60 Seconds
Movie Review: A Fun Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I've read quite a few reviews from critics and other sources of information only to find that the majority seem to think that this movie was poorly made. I completely disagree. Movies aren't always about a perfect story line, or perfect acting, or even being perfectly accurate. Some movies are made just so the viewer can have fun and sometimes an adrenaline rush.I'll be the first to admit that Gone In 60 Seconds wasn't a blockbuster. It didn't do anything new for the genre. But, the sheer awesomeness of the cars and the speeds at which they are driven makes the movie enjoyable. This movie is obviously meant to appeal to car enthusiasts and it does because it's all about cars. No filler content, no real attempt at an amazingly intriguing movie, just cars... and that's what makes it fun to watch. I HIGHLY reccommend it to anyone who even remotely enjoys cars. If you don't like cars, don't even bother.
Movie Review: Don't listen to the negative. This movie is fun to watch
Summary: 5 Stars
People have said this movie sucked. I disagree. Movies are supposed to be a break from reality. This movie has a few things that are noticable. Like when Kit hooks the wrecker line to the rear-end of Master P's car. When the truck leaves it snatches the front end out from under the car. But who cares. The scene was so unbelievably funny that the small discrepancey doesn't matter. Pick this movie apart if you want but it is one of the movies that I can watch over and over. It has action, it has comedy. The only CGI scene that was horribly obvious was when the GT 500 was jumping the wreck on the bridge. All the actors in this movie play their parts well. Judge for yourself though. If you are a reality based person all the time, you probably won't like this. If you are like me and sometimes the real world just overwhelms you and you need a break. This movie is the ticket.Movie Review: A chick's perspective on this fabulous movie
Summary: 5 Stars
OKay, so this isn't the greatest movie ever made, but I gave it my 5 stars because I had SO MUCH FUN WATCHING IT! I first bought the VHS version, then when I bought a Playstation 2 for the hubby 2 Christmases ago, we ordered the DVD. Totally worth it, in my opinion, because I love cars, Angelina Jolie and there are lots of little moments in the movie that were goofy and fun. (ie, "TV Trivia", "Boosting cars or having sex?" and Donnie trying to teach a little Asian woman to drive - I can laugh about that one especially since I am Asian myself :p)Plenty of memorable characters and a killer soundtrack, too. So if you're looking for a rush of mindless humor and displays of loyalty between friends and family, take an hour & a half out of your day and watch this. You'll enjoy it - Eleanor will be glad you did too. *wink*
Movie Review: Firing on all clyinders
Summary: 5 Stars
Gone in 60 seconds is a adrenaline rush that grabs you from the very beginning and never lets go. But few people know that its a remake of a 1974 Classic where nearly 100 cars are destroyed in the 40 minute chase scene between a 1973 Mustang Mach 1 and the entire city of long beach. But we arent talking about that now are we?Bottom line: this is the coolest car movie out there right now, the fast and the furious comes close, but not quite. The assignment is to steal 50 Exotic beauties in 72 hours or Cage's brother gets the axe. Cool huh? With cars ranging from a 1967 Corvette to a Lamborghini Diablo. And the final car, which is none other than a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT500. The sexiest car in existance.
This is a guy movie, no doubt about it. But it, watch it. Then dream of Porsches and Shelbys...
Movie Review: What's not to love?
Summary: 5 Stars
After his brother botches a car theft, Mephis (Cage), who is a retired car thief, has to steal 50 top end cars to save his brother's life. This movie has everything a guy could want. A great soundtrack, a very sexy Angelina Jolie, and a lot of super hot cars! Again, Nicolas Cage does a great job with just an average supporting cast. This is like Con Air on land. The story line was a little hard to believe. I think it would be hard to steal 50 cars in one night. Especially when most of those cars are exotics. The special effects in this movie aren't really the greatest, but the action makes up for it. If you are into guy flicks, then this is a definate must for your collection. BTW, this movie is best seen in a home theater surround sound environment. Anything else takes a little away from the movie.
