Movie Reviews of Speed Racer - Episodes 12-23

Movie Review: Speed Racer-Volume 2.......
Summary: 5 Stars

Mostly everyone I know considers Speed Racer to be the 'Godfather' of all Anime. Released here in the 60s, it quickly had people here clamoring for more Japanese cartoons and with good reason. Speed Racer, Volume 2 has Speed racing around the globe in the Mach 5 and continuing his adventures.
This season, he goes up against the likes of:Ali Ben Schemer, Cornpone Brotch, Mr. Cumulus, Kim Jugger, and even Racer X.

I'll admit, I loved the first season. But, I love this season even more. There a couple of memorable episodes here that are my favorites. I highly recommend this to any anime fan or fan of the Speed Racer movie that recently came out.

There's very little in the way of extras but, still, it's well worth getting to see a big craze in American history. America loved its' Speed Racer back in the 70s!!!!

Summary of Speed Racer - Episodes 12-23

Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 02/28/2005 Run time: 300 minutes Rating: Ur
In this second set of adventures, Speed and his friends race against a madman's robot-controlled car in "Race for Revenge." Trixie gets jealous when Speed pays too much attention to the pretty title character in "The Girl Daredevil." In "The Desperate Desert Race," the gang is taken prisoner by rebel army leader Ali ben Schemer, a character who may offend Arab-American viewers.

When Mach Go Go Go debuted in syndication in the U.S. as Speed Racer in 1967, the series had been extensively re-edited to excise much of the violence. These edits cause some continuity problems: in "Girl Daredevil," new tires appear on the Mach-5 between two scenes, and a villain steals the car, although it was out of gas minutes earlier. As the exploits of Speed, Trixie, Sparks, Spritle, and Chim Chim remain a touchstone for fans who grew up watching them, members of Gen-Y are unlikely to be troubled by these awkward moments. (Unrated, suitable for ages 6 and older: cartoon violence, tobacco use, minor ethnic stereotypes) --Charles Solomon
