I was a big fan of the original Speed Racer series, so watching the movie was a bit of a let down for me. Although they did manage to create some very cool looking cars including a vintage Mach 5. The sets were over saturated colors which made them glow in florescent colors! There wasn't much of a plot, and the action was a bit repetitive and frantic. They should have taken more time to sketch out a little more realistic world and put some back story into it.
