Rating: Summary: hmmmm Review: The movie is excellent, Nicolas Cage and Angelina Jolie play awesome parts in the movie. I just can't stop raving over the special effects. The story is brilliant. But it is recorded in a 16-9 TV format (widescreen tv's). Now if you have a Panasonic or Sony DVD Player you could have some problems with this DVD. I'm not bangin the movie it's just the DVD could have been recorded better. Later.
Rating: Summary: Highly Underrated Review: Is the remake of "Gone in 60 Seconds" a masterpiece? No. Is it better than the original? Debatable, to say the least. One thing is for sure, this film has been unfairly sliced and diced by blood thirsty critics, and it did not deserve that. "Gone in 60 Seconds" is indeed a very witty, smart, sexy (Angelina Jolie is in it, isn't she?), Buckheimer film. One thing though, like other reviewers here have said, this is a devout car film, and viewers who don't really care much about cars might spend a lot of time during the movie rolling their eyes. But, for all the car lovers out there, at least try renting it, huh?
Rating: Summary: Fast paced action!! Review: Before watching this movie I had heard many bad reviews about this film. They were wrong! This is a great car movie with lots of action. Cage gives an impressive performance as a master car thief who comes out of retirement to help save his younger brother. The only thing he has to do is steal 50 cars in 3 days!There was not much character development, but the action scenes make up for it. This movie made me want to go outside and drive somewhere, fast. Don't miss this gem.
Rating: Summary: My PC reading of this film...... Review: This was an average action movie. I am neutral about whether it's worth renting or buying. I just wanted to say something about one character. There is this young African-American man in it. He is just a Steppin' Fetchit' for the new millenium. And people think Jarjar Binks was bad. This movie had several Black men in it with good parts. They even laugh at themselves by acknowledging that the young brother is like a "ghetto smurf." Still, if this is what Hollywood is providing as parts for young Black men, no wonder there was so much for Spike Lee to criticize in "Bamboozled." I wish they didn't have this stereotypical and undeveloped role in the film.
Rating: Summary: A terrible sequeal Review: I saw the original movie and it was GREAT! This so called remake offered to the public is not even close to the original. I watched it and finally realized that it was not a remake but a poor sequeal and not nearly as good as the first. The actors made several comments connecting the two movise and the basic plot was the same but it fell far short of the original. There is only one good stunt in the movie but in the original, there were dozens of stunts! However, if you have never seen the original then you may like this poor version.
Rating: Summary: not that good Review: I've written some longer reviews lately and i'm tired. so i shall be brief in my attempt to summarize gone in sixty seconds the new one with Cage. It's stupid slow with no true high octane chase scenes like the original. it seems to only bare its resemblance to the original in general idea and name. it's not very good. Jolie is barely in the movie Ribisi and Duvall's talents are as expected wasted. Nice cars but with no real plot to help distinguish itself and not any really good acting it falls short of even just three stars. thank you and have a good day or night whichever it is.
Rating: Summary: Fun ride... Review: Basic storyline: Little Kip (Ribisi) botches a 50-car boost and his big brother Memphis (Cage) comes to the rescue. They steal a bunch of really nice cars, including a 67 Shelby GT at the end. If you can suspend reality a bit, the movie is fun. It's tough to watch with my boyfriend because he is always pointing out how unrealistic everything is. I saw the movie for what it is: Pure fun. It's not an Oscar type movie that is supposed to provoke deep thoughts. My problems with it - 1) Angelina Jolie was not in it enough. 2) I'm not a fan of Ribisi and his character seemed like a whiny little baby the entire movie. 3) I had to make myself ignore the zillions of unrealistic things that happened (ie: the helicopter flying 15 feet off the ground chasing the Shelby GT). Basically it's a fun flick to watch if you like pretty cars, but people who are very analytical about movies will probably hate it.
Rating: Summary: A FUN MOVIE! Review: Ok then. Let's just get a few things straight first of all. 1: This is not going to sweep the oscars. 2: This will not wow audiences with its phenominal script. Do you know why that is?... It's because this wasn't made for that! It's not that type of movie. This is an all out fun movie (or as some of us like to call them "popcorn movies!") So, heres my advise. You buy this movie, slap it in, turn the lights out, sit back, relax, turn up your dolby surround sound system and just enjoy it! I just wish that critcs would stop jugding these movies for something they'r not! They'r not all going to have great acting and scripts. So long as they excite and entertain the audience WHO CARES!? I don't think that there was much wrong with the acting in this, yeah some of the script was a bit cheesy but it's all part of the fun! Hope you all enjoy it!
Rating: Summary: poor reviews? so what? Review: I'm sick of reading poor reviews of this movie, if you don't expect anything from it, you'll love it! (Assuming that you enjoy classic cars, plenty of action, and basically, just action.. as well as some comic remarks). Just don't think about the plot or poor character development, and enjoy the excellent action scenes. It's a no-commitment movie you can watch over and over, that will certainly excite you!
Rating: Summary: It's Not Like The Old? So What? Review: Like I always say, just enjoy the movie and stop worrying about the flaws. When you do that, this movie is a blast. A great movie. Enjoy.
