Superb adaptation!

Despite the (entirely unearned) critical drubbing it took, the Wachowski's "Speed Racer" is a superb adaptation of the cartoon, capturing its essence without being condescending to the source material. The film is given a human heart through the performances of John Goodman (Pops), Susan Sarandon (Mom), and Emile Hirsch (Speed), who all manage to make one care about these people. The primary color palette used, combined with the adrenaline rush of the races themselves make the film exciting to watch. Enjoy... Go, Speed Racer, go!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
