Reinvents the action Genre

The reason that this film works is because the action is so fierce and gripping. I will continue by saying that I do not like Keanu Reeves as an actor but in action films he seems to do okay. There where so many holes in the script that I won't even go into all of them, and as for direction I think this reinvented the genre. I enjoy Speed like I said at the beginning because of the action but also because the characters that are on the bus seem real and I think it is easy for the viewer to identify with them. Dennis Hopper made a perfect villain and there are even a few shots of his eyes that made me think that he is truly insane. This one is definitly worth a watch and is one of my guilty pleasures.
