  • "Hurtling down the track, careening around, over and through the competition, Speed Racer is a natural behind the wheel. Born to race cars, Speed is aggressive, instinctive and, most of all, fearless. His only real competition is the memory of the brother he idolized-the legendary Rex Racer - whose death in a race has left behind a legacy that Speed is driven to fulfill. Speed is loyal to the family racing business, led by his father, Pops Racer, the designer of Speed's thundering Mach 5. When Speed turns down a lucrative and tempting offer from Royalton Industries, he not only infuriates the company's maniacal owner but uncovers a terrible secret-some of the biggest races are being fixed by a handful of ruthless moguls who manipulate the top drivers to boost profits. If Speed won't drive for Royalton, Royalton will see to it that the Mach 5 never crosses another finish line. The only way for Speed to save his family's business and the sport he loves is to beat Royalton at his own game. With the support of his family and his loyal girlfriend, Trixie, Speed teams with his one-time rival-the mysterious Racer X - to win the race that had taken his brother's life: the death-defying, cross-country rally known as The Crucible."@en
  • "Speed Racer uses his natural abilities behind the wheel as well as the support of his family, girlfriend, and the mysterious Racer X to take on fierce competitors and save his family business."
  • "An over-the-top, sensory overload experience determined to replicate its frantic, television-anime origins, Speed Racer is wild enough to induce a headache or wow a viewer with one dazzling effect after another. Adapted for the big screen as a live-action feature, Speed Racer is written and directed by Larry and Andy Wachowski, the sibling team behind the intensely satisfying The Matrix and its busier, less interesting sequels. Where the rich mythmaking of The Matrix was entirely accessible, however, Speed Racer's overwhelming and gratuitously complicated story exposition is an enormous challenge to follow, let alone embrace. After a while, one simply surrenders to the unbroken din of dialogue concerning corporate chicanery, corruption in the sport of racing, and a value conflict between racing as a family business versus multinational cash cow. At the same time, the film's hyper-real equivalent of the old Speed Racer cartoon's great whoosh of color, motion, and edgy production design--such as inventive uses of scene-changing wipes, bold framing, shifting perspectives--are more overbearing than fun. Emile Hirsch plays Speed Racer, younger brother of a deceased racing legend, Rex, and son of car designer Pops (John Goodman). The latter invented Speed's Mach 5, and is singularly unimpressed by an offer from a giant conglomerate that would lock Speed into exclusive racing services. Speed opts instead for family loyalty, incurring the wrath of the conglomerate's unctuous head (Roger Allam). With family honor on the line and the affections of girlfriend Trixie (Christina Ricci) behind him, Speed hits the track in hopes of fulfilling his destiny as a master racer. The cast is largely enjoyable, including Susan Sarandon as Speed's mom, Matthew Fox as mysterious Racer X, and a pair of chimps as the irrepressible Chim-Chim. All well and good, but in a movie that lives or dies by the excitement level of races that look like computer-animated Hot Wheels action, Speed Racer is a dreary adventure."@en
  • "Speed Racer è un talento naturale dell'automobilismo; figlio di un costruttore di vetture da corsa, di una madre che al centro del salotto sfoggia il prototipo dell'auto della casa, fratello minore di Rex, morto in corsa, e maggiore di Spritle che, con l'inseparabile scimpanzè Chim-Chim, forma il tifo più entusiasta e imprevedibile che un atleta possa desiderare. Eppure il sogno di Speed è costretto ad infrangersi contro la realtà di un mondo corrotto, dove le grandi competizioni sono decise in partenza dagli sponsor multimiliardari e dove chi non si lascia comprare da un imprenditore senza scrupoli rischia di non superare mai la linea di partenza. Fedele all'azienda di famiglia e soprattutto al suo spirito appassionato e indipendente, Speed si allea con il misterioso Racer X per mettere fine agli illeciti dello sport e dimostrare quel che sa fare: vincere. (Mymovies)."

Loyal à la firme de son père, Pops Racer, concepteur de sa puissante Mach 5, Speed a rejeté une alléchante proposition des Royalton Industries. Après sêtre attiré par ce refus la haine du fanatique Royalton, Speed découvre que certaines des plus grandes courses américaines sont truquées par une poigné dhommes daffaires, manipulant les meilleurs pilotes pour booster leurs profits. Et puisque Speed refuse de courir sous ses couleurs, Royalton veillera à ce que la Mach 5 ne remporte plus une seule course."
