It seems the Wachowski brothers never loses their magic whenever they choose to wave their wand yet once again to bring to life a long lost Japanese cartoon. What those brothers do is simply amazing when it comes to creating a visually stunning environment with all the right touches of colors and effects. The casting was superb with Emile Hirsch bringing the lead character to life and just blowing me away with his portrayal. Everything seems to fit including the supporting cast made of Christina Ricci and his whole family ensemble. Even Matt Fox was sensational on his role as Racer X. Every single element was blended perfectly to make such a brilliant comeback movie for the Matrix creators. They even brought some nifty comedy to the formula which made me enjoy this movie even more. The only thing I did not like about it was the subplots which is really unnecessary and made the movie longer. Also Rain’s performance was a little dull which I felt he could have brought more to his acting. Overall if you’re looking for a heart stopping adrenalin rush ride then Speed Racer will most definitely soothe your cravings.
