It's a simple story - boy loves cars, girl loves cars, boy loves girl, boy hates big-soul-curshing business. What's not to like? Yes, it is simple. And it's about as nurtitional as a case of movie theatre candy. But it's bright and pretty and once you can kick back and go with the flow, it's one heck of a ride. The casting is perfect - the characters sound and look like the cartoon characters. There's a fight in the middle of the movie that is so Speed Racer it's scary. If you loved the cartoon series, you'll have a great time at this film.
