Watch Race For Free

Such a frustrating disappointment

Sorry, this movie sucks

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

This movie was on Showtime today and I decided to give it a chance. I then looked on IMDb to find some terrible reviews. Then I saw some good reviews that didn't seem to make sense. So here is a REAL REVIEW.This movie is not good, but it is not bad either, it's just okay. It has too much cussing for a kids movie and the women are not exactly accurately portrayed physically at least. (huge breasts with visible nipple bulges on almost all women, super skinny waists, skimpy clothing etc...) It also has some violence that probably isn't the best for younger kids, but some of the stuff they show these days is a lot worse so I suppose that's just to be expected in this day and age.Now the good, It had a fairly unique plot, or rather it mixed up some semi-familiar stories and made them it's own. I liked the general theme of space and the future and the 'universe' it created. All this was cool but could have been far better explained.Overall I feel this movie could have been far better if it had been produced by a larger company or at least with a larger budget and a fuller explanation of the universe and improved quality of the animation. Maybe it's just style but it looked like one of those cheap cartoons that are being produced these days rather than a full budget "movie".

I put a spoiler tag, but there really isn't much to spoil.This film is labeled on Netflix as a PG 'Children and Family' movie. Please for the love of god do not show this film to children. I wouldn't subject the entirety of this film to anyone, and I'm a man who forces friends and family to watch 'Mac & Me' annually.There is frequent pointless profanity throughout the film, which was unexpected and jarring considering the sophomoric quality of the writing which lulls you into thinking the film was intended for idiot children. The truth is the film is apparently intended for idiot adults. Unless you want your kids hearing the protagonist shout a word that sounds like 'shift' over and over again, you'll probably want to mute the television.Unfortunately muting the TV wont protect your tykes from a scene where a guy flips off an alien and subsequently has his middle finger ripped off and fed to a creature that really enjoys human flesh. (There's a whole pointless scene where these creatures discuss how much they want to eat human flesh, while messily eating slabs of bloody raw meat.) Or a humanoid alien having it's neck sliced open and then subsequently shot to death by a stupid-looking mustache villain.If you think that these things sound awesome, then I have bad news for you too. The animation is intensely terrible. So intensely terrible I thought I was watching another badly localized foreign film. To my shock and dismay I was wrong. The fact that the directors of this garbage have been working in the animation industry for so long makes it that much worse.oh also there's a really interesting subplot about how the protagonist really likes females of any species, just not the one he works with. She even dresses up like a slut for him, but he leaves the bar/nightclub with an alien chick because shes more slutty-looking. But don't worry, he inexplicably makes out with her after winning the race in the end.Showing this to your kids is an example of bad parenting.EDIT: ooh heres a fun game; Look at all those one-paragraph positive review about how much people's "boys" loved this film! now look at the dates those reviews were posted. HMM!also netflix apparently changed the rating some time after this review, they should have issued some kind of apology for carrying the film at all though.

This movie is totally destined to be cult classic - have no idea why it didn't get a larger release. Great action scenes, racy anime vibe makes it more engaging than usual US animation fare -- maybe not a great movie for young kids (some of the characters are provocatively drawn)? but super fun movie. The action is relentless, lot of innuendo and racy dialog with highly endowed female characters -- reminds me of a lot of classic Japanese race films (Ghost In The Shell, etc.) Had a pretty tight script and great dialog. Is this finally coming out on DVD?? I've been looking for it online for a couple years...

I watched this movie with my middle school age children. They really loved the story and the graphics. They are very computer savvy - and they really liked the way this movie looked. I also thought the graphics were great. They particularly enjoyed the Race-Scenes with all of the action and suspense. They were glued to the story-line, so much so that I couldn't get them away from the movie until it was over - credits and all. My youngest is already looking in the toy-stores for the action figures. He was looking for 'Race' cars or Figureens. All the kids and I felt that the characters were very easy to relate to. We are hoping that there will be a sequel. Or a series!?
