I know that this movie is open right now for you east coast people. If anybody went and saw it lets hear some reviews of it. I'm not sure if I'll go opening night(now) or wait awhile. Let me know what you all thought of it.

Stang Runner · 06-22-2001, 08:57 PM

I am going sat they sold out before I could get some.

StoplightWarrior · 06-23-2001, 01:22 AM

We tried to see it, but all the shows were sold out. Oh well, the theater lot was like a car show, and there was some serious rice out, for sure.

Black 2000 GT
Pulleys, mufflers, K&N
Steeda springs, subs, strut tower, CC plates

Skyman · 06-23-2001, 03:13 AM

They were all sold out, even 2 hours later when I went. So We went to another town, and got in at the last second there. It was packed too, but not the car crowd like at the other one.

I think it was pretty good, sure made me want to race. You know its not gonna be accurate, its a movie, but hey, it was pretty awesome. The plot is similar to point break though.

I saw it! Sweet movie, excluding all the ricers, only two domestics , the 68' Charger and the Lightning, all the ricers sounded awful! :P Otherwise, SWEET MOVIE!

smokedchevy · 06-23-2001, 07:35 PM

It was pretty cool, but it wasn't very realistic. For all you guys who run at LACR, the dude in the movie tells his friend his Charger ran nine seconds flat at LACR. It's worth the cash, but the only non-rice car was the Charger. It didn't sound that impressive either, my 65 stang sounded meaner than the Charger. The 671 blower on the car was also silent, must've been built by Powerdyne

. Bottom line, it's worth seeing, good action flick.

dinomite · 06-23-2001, 08:41 PM

it actually wasn't as bad as i thought it would be, but i have never seen so much rice. Only a couple things made me scream out in the theater (the burnout/wheelie.....)

1BAD89 · 06-23-2001, 11:38 PM

I read in a car mag. that the blower wasn't real on that charger. So that is why it was so silent. I liked the movie.
