Summary: Honk If You Love Cars....Fast Cars In Particular...
Review: ..this stylish Dominick Sena/Jerry Bruckheimer studio piece is for you. It is hip, but not waaaaytoo hip, and you can tell that Hollywood has gotten in the mix of a story that is kinda bleak.
(Ever have your car stolen? It's not a nice thing.) Cage must've played this role--"the Mr Benevolent/trying to reform" crook--in several moovys. Duvall nearly recreates a character found in the Tom Cruise/Nicole Kidman race moovy also done by Bruckheimer, "Days of Thunder". Delroy Lindo is a cop who is as obsessed with cars as the theives. Ribisi is the head of the New
School Car Jacks...Jolie plays the Hot Wire Babe. (What? Doesn't every moovy have one?) But the star of the show? You got it. That Holy Grail Mustang Cage gets to drive. See it for the scenes where he is driving Her to get his enemies that one last auto on the Jack list. A good popcorn moovy. It ain't Fellini, nor is it supposed to be...

Summary: THE BEST car movie ever made.
Review: Gone in 60 seconds boasts Nic Cage as the front man in this car crunching, adrenine pumping action thriller! The plot: Memphis Reins (cage) is told by one of his friends that his kid brother ( Ribisi) has being held captive by a mobster by the name of Raymond Cullertri.Pushed into a corner, Memphis is forced to steal 50 cars in 3 days, igniting his old career and the police are way ahead of him already! Rated pg-13 for language, the sound and photography in this excellent, testostrone pumping movie beat almost all movies in the same area!

Summary: Gone from your memory in 60 seconds
Review: Gone in 60 Seconds is one of those flash trash car chase brainless action popcorn muncher films with big bangs but not so much brains. But it's elevated above the staple car chase limitations by Nicholas Cage and Giovanni Ribisi. The female lead however, Angelina Jolie, is wasted in this film, with nothing much to do except look sexy.It's a Jerry Bruckheimer film, so it does have a fair amount of cool car chases and big noisy things exploding. But this, unlike Bruckheimer's other films (The Rock, Con Air, Armaggedeon) is somewhat short of any really good car chases. And director Dominic Sena (Swordfish) wastes most of the time on boring sub-plots instead of what the audience really wants: action. In short, if you're looking for a brainless entertaining flick with "that Tomb Raider chick" then this is the film for you. But if what you want is a film with cool cars and really great action, check out The Fast and the Furious instead.

Summary: Bruckheimer's action formula falls flat on this one
Review: Producer Jerry Bruckheimer is one of the most successful people in the movies. He has a formula for action pictures which has been as successful as it has been critic proof. He's the man behind such blockbusters as ConAir, The Rock and Armageddon. Gone in 60 Seconds is his latest production, and even by Bruckheimer standards, it's run-of-the-mill. To his credit, I imagine Mr. B. is the only producer on the planet who could get away with spending [that much money] on a remake of a low budget 1974 movie, but that's exactly what Gone in 60 Seconds is. Memphis Raines [Nicholas Cage] used to be the top auto thief in Los Angeles. When his mother told him his brother Kip [Giovanni Ribisi] was going to turn out just like him, he did the right thing. ["I didn't do it for the money I did it for the cars!", he exclaims.] He moves to a small town and opens a go-cart track. Well, wouldn't you know it? Kip turns out just like Memphis anyway. Now Kip has made an enemy of Raymond Calitri [Christopher Eccleston], a lowdown Brit who seems to control the grand theft auto market in LA. Raymond gives Memphis a choice: Either steal fifty cars in seventy-two hours or stand by while Kip is whacked. Memphis rounds up some of his old crew. These include his old mentor Freb [Robert Duvall] and his old flame Sara [Angelina Jolie]. Meanwhile, police detective Castlebeck {Delroy Lindo], who regrets he didn't nail Memphis years ago, gets wind of the plan and attempts to stop it. Memphis finds himself squeezed into the middle between the law and the lawless. The story goes from the preposterous to the absurd and back again, but in a Bruckheimer movie, story always takes a back-seat to action. The problem here is that most the action isn't all that exciting. It's rather soulless, with one predictable event following another in a sort of paint by numbers fashion. There is one very well done car chase, but one such scene in this kind of movie is hardly sufficient. Gone in 60 Seconds has three Oscar winning actors among its stars. Sometimes in an otherwise mindless movie, this is a bonus, but not in this case. Nicholas Cage has no character development. He's essentially the same guy he was in ConAir. Angelina Jolie has a very small role, despite the fact she gets second billing. Robert Duvall gets to say a lot of inane dialog with a straight face. These are not stars doing their acting thing. These are three stars just working for a living. I am sure they were paid most sufficiently. They were cast simply as part of the Bruckheimer formula, which says that you've got to have a big name or two above the title. In other words, he believes you can fool many people through conspicuous excessiveness. Usually, but not always, he's right.

Summary: Buckle Up For A Bumpy Ride
Review: The plot elements of this movie have been covered elsewhere so I'll just offer up my opinions on it overall. I have a problem with critics who always feel they need to dis a good action flick. They'd rather us all watch the artsy nonsense of such films as Moulin Rouge.
When I watch a movie, I want to see something that I can kick back with a tub of buttered popcorn and a cold Mt. Dew and not have to really think, but just be taken away to a fun world of fantasy and action. You want high speed action? Fast dialogue and faster car chases? Sexual innuendo? Complete mindless fun where you can shift your brain into neutral and leave this drab world behind? Want to see the bad guys get one up on the good guys?
If you answered yes to these questions, then this dvd is for you. It fires on all cylinders and injects you with a nitrus oxide burst of adrenaline. WARNING: Do not go driving after viewing this movie for at least an hour or two. Your liable to feel compelled to break numerous traffic laws and the speed limit.
As for extras, there is a great Cult video included that completely rocks. I'm a big Cult fan, and I was impressed with their contribution to the soundtrack and their video.
On the subject of actors, they all do a good job. It's a fun movie, and they look like they are having fun. I had fun watching it. If you want a good time, check out this dvd. It's mindless, it's action packed, it's shallow, and it's one fun ride all the way from start to finish.

Summary: NOT as GOOD as THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS but GOOD
Review: The plot is simple a crew a car jackers have to steal 50 cars in three days or Nicholas Cages brother will die. There are tight cars that are fast and its a tight movie
