Watch Nitro For Free

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Ex-racer now working as a builder goes back to racing to get the quick money he needs to pay to insure is dying wife gets the heart for transplant she needs.Serious (?) action film isn't all that good. The action is dull, the plot unreal (how long can you run around with a heart in a bag anyway before it's going to spoil or get damaged?) its one of those weird WTF films that one stumbles upon from time to time that make you wonder how people choose what to release. Why do we have this when there are so many other films we'll never see? I'm at a loss. Here the idea sounds good but the execution isn't, there is no excitement just odd plot twist on odd plot twist. I'm amazed that organ transplant groups aren't upset at how the whole process is handled (you've got to find your own?). Then again maybe thats the way its done in France, or more likely the groups are not saying anything because it would attract attention to this bad film.I'd take a pass

I read some of the reviews here and I can't believe people bash this film for all the wrong reasons?. I mean lets say if Tarantino made the same film in Hollywood or some other action director but in the US and market the hell out of it the you people would praising it instead of taking punches at it.This movie had more depth than most Hollywood films wish they could ever have, I wouldn't be surprised it Hollywood remake their own version of it in the next few years?.Max is anything but perfect and the film does not make him to be this nice great guy, and that is what people seem to miss the point here, this is NOT some hero. This was guy who had no care in the world for anything other racing and having a good time until he meets "Alice" in the hospital and slowly grows up. You can see from the scenes of his past and his memory from the time they leave the hospital he realizes that being with ALice means he has to change who he is; he can't race or steal cars anymore because being with Alice is something he is never had. The scenes from his past with her and who is become in tghe present are a clear indication of it. The director was very subtle in the use of the flash backs but very effective because it is like how we reflect on some past events at times in our own lives.The film takes many turns and it is not define itself to be a action film because right in the midst of the action there is some very intimate scenes like when he meets up with his old girl friend Moragane. I don't know how or why some people compare this film to "Fast and the Furious" but this is far above "FF" can ever live up to as far storyline goes. This actor "Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge" whom I really have never seen or familiar with his work really did a great job both the action and the very emotional scenes that made Max a human with errors, like all of us. So yes he is crazy and stupid than most of us and the film makes that clear from the very start of this film when he is racing. At one point he tells Moragane that all I care about is about saving my girl friend and I don't care what I have to go through to save her.Max did screw up by killing the cop and again this is given to you about him as a desperate man to do anything to save his girl friend. It does not make you have any sympathy but to show Max's idea of love. The essence of this whole film is really about love, he loves Alice, Morgane loves Max; she didn't give up on him when he kept running from her. There is a great scene when he is singing to the little boy on the phone the song his mother use to sing for him, that was so unusual to see in a film packed with such intensity and these are scenes that made this film so different and so interesting.The ending was not as predictable as most of you say it was, I thought he will deliver the heart but to my surprise his Van crashed. How could say you see that Moragane's death was predictable and her life is what saves Alice's life?.. You can see that Max is still going to jail when the cops are standing by the hospital room, so was this truly a happy predictable ending?I don't know what is the standard these days that you people compare films to?...but each film should be judged based on its own merits and not compared or expected to live up to Hollywood films.

Let me start by saying that I like a good action movie as long as it's well balanced and that the story can at least stand on it's own. Well not for this one folks. It lacks any CREDIBLE elements and if a plot could be in color this one would be gray at best...gray in an off white setting how's that. To me it's like a collage of bits and pieces of mediocre stories that were on shelves everywhere for the past few years. I have nothing against movies made in Quebec, last year I saw the movie Bon Cop, Bad cop and I really liked it. It was funny, the characters related well to each other, some parts were a bit sappy but still it was a fun movie to watch. This movie lost me in the beginning because it made NO SENSE AT ALL...none. Even the few punch lines were off. I like a movie that keeps me interested, keeps me on my toes a bit you know, but it was so predictable, dry and unoriginal...but that's just me, I have a fault, I like to be entertained.

Action film is a genre rarely seen in Quebec film. Last year was for Bon Cop Bad Cop and now Nitro. A young man want's to safe the life of his wife. He has to get lost of money and a heart for a transplant. Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge is excellent and does most of his stunts. Lucie Laurier plays a woman with a attitude, don't step on her toes. Not only is she beautiful but she gives a great performance. There is lots of action in this low budget film, compare to the Die Hard series, but you'll be impress to see what they do in this picture. The story also as moments of drama and emotion. A very enjoyable film. Go see it. I think American producers would like to buy the script and do a remake. If they do , don't forget Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge, he makes this movie believable.
