http://urllio.com/r1fuzEx-con Jensen Ames is forced by the warden of a notorious prison to compete in our post-industrial world's most popular sport: a car race in which inmates must brutalize and kill one another on the road to victory.
In 2012, amid economic chaos and high unemployment, Americans watch by the millions as criminals with life sentences race armored cars on Terminal Island. Two-thirds of the combatants die but the winner may earn his freedom. On the day he loses his job, steelworker Jensen Ames is arrested for his wife's murder. Sent to Terminal Island, he's offered an out by the steely and manipulative Warden Hennessey - race as the popular mask-wearing (but now dead) champion, Frankenstein, or rot in prison. Jensen makes the bargain. As the three-stage race approaches, he realizes that the whole thing may be a set up - can an anonymous man behind a mask get revenge and win his release?
Death Race is like a video game. I found the format and style of the movie similar to a Rock Star games computer game. Even the dialog is similar to the video clips in today's video games. I believe new technology like computer games is now effecting Hollywood's film style. The action and pace of the movie is like playing Grand Theft Auto. All we needed is Tommy Vincetti in the film! Death Race is nothing like the predecessor Death Race 2000. Death Race 2000 has to be one of the cheesiest films of all time. One of Stallone's first films. Death Race the remake is interesting, and I like how the evil warden gets it in the end. Turn your brain off before watching Death Race. 6 death racers out of 10 for this rendition. The movie is soon to be a video game near you.
"You sure are lucky a driver like me just happened to turn up in your prison when I did" For Joan Allan's psycho bitch prison manager maybe but for the audience, I highly doubt that. So, this is yet another film trying to become a cult classic through the basis that it was pitched as a Grindhouse picture, its exploitation and therefore they apparently have an excuse for making a bad film on purpose. Let me start off by saying I loved last year's 'Grindhouse' flick, both 'Death Proof' and 'Planet Terror' but here, I just couldn't enjoy this movie. The characters are undeveloped, the dialogue some of the worst I've seen since god knows when. It's a terrible movie, but it won't fall into that pile 'So bad its good'.<br/><br/>This is mainly because you can't make a bad film on purpose. Cult classics aren't made from the ground upward, there the corpses of films made to be serious film and that have failed. Even the action jolts, its shot so scattered most of the time you can't tell what's going on. Not that you'd really care.<br/><br/>The Transporter star Jason Statham takes the wheel in director Paul W.S. Anderson's remake of the Roger Corman classic about a hyper-violent cross-country race that breaks all of the traditional rules of the road.<br/><br/>The time is the not-so-distant future, and as America's prisons begin overflowing with violent criminals, the powers that be devise a grisly game that will free up space in the cells and entertain the masses at the same time. Jensen Ames (Statham) is a three-time speedway champion with a dark past. A survival expert and ex-con whose sordid history comes back to haunt him when he is framed for a murder he didn't commit, Ames is forced to choose between donning the metallic mask of a mythical racer known as Frankenstein or languishing away on Terminal Island -- America's most notorious penitentiary.<br/><br/>There's no smooth transition with this film, much like 'Step Brothers' it beats you repetitively across the head with just how loud and incoherent its being. Though in its defence there are some engaging race sequences. But there's the ones where the explosives and guns are excluded which to be honest is about 1% of the movie. Paul W.S. Anderson isn't quite Uwe Boll, he's close. And this garbage certainly hasn't helped his chances from redemption but we expect More from him. I enjoyed 'Event Horizon' upon release but with the 'Resident Evil' garbage and 'Alien Vs Predator' two of my least favourite films of all time, its easy to see why the film tanked. It's because its shot with no flair. The colours are drab and unexciting. Think 'Speed Racer' without the entertainment value. Its audience mainly consists of young teenage boys. Its go cars, girls and explosives. Anybody looking for some style and substance should look elsewhere.<br/><br/>Verdict: Its 90 minutes of sense-less violence depicted in such an unlikable manner that it borderlines on offensive. There's little to no substance and the character are so undercooked that you won't care when the directors decides to off them. Death Race, isn't a winner.
With its inexplicably watchable shotgun-riding bimbos, unconscious homoeroticism and "Shawshank Redemption" ending, The Fast and the Frivolous here is almost so bad it's good. Almost...
Death Race is a remake of the 1975 film <a href="/title/tt0072856/">Death Race 2000 (1975)</a> with a new script written by English director Paul W.S. Anderson. It is not based on the 1976 arcade game Death Race, which was inspired by the 1975 film. It isn't exactly stated when Death race takes place. It is stated in the prologue that in 2012 the economy collapsed and that before Death Race there were Gladiator type battles. So it can be assumed that it is at least a decade after the Cage Fights started which was probably around 2015, so we can assume this takes place in 2025. In the DVD commentary, Paul W.S. Anderson describes the original concept as a "reimagining" of Paul Bartel's Death Race 2000, so in that sense it's a remake. However, <a href="/name/nm0001016/">David Carradine</a>'s voice cameo as Frankenstein at the beginning of the film suggests that it could also be seen as a sequel. Anderson also says that when he was making the film, he thought of it as a prequel to Death Race 2000, showing how the Death Race began in a prison before it went on to become the cross-country race seen in Bartel's film. However, the film can't literally be a prequel since it takes place an indeterminate time after 2012 and Death Race 2000 is set in (of course) 2000. Or it could mean that it was the 2,000th race and has nothing to do with the year. (1) Jensen Ames's Ford Mustang, (2) Grimm's Chrysler 300C, (3) 14K's 1988 Porsche 911, (4) Colt's Jaguar XJS, (5) Riggins' Buick Riviera "boat-tail" (early 1970's), (6) Carson's Pontiac Trans AM, (7) Siad's BMW 7 Series (E32), (8) Pachenko's 1966 Buick Riviera (chop top), (9) Machine Gun Joe's Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 Pickup, and (10) "The Dreadnought" is a Peterbilt Tractor with a modified tanker trailer. The electric kill switches are in the weapons. All they do is deactivate the weapons so they can't use them to escape. "Warmest regards, your monster." The R-rated theatrical version was not cut to obtain the rating. The unrated edition extends some fights and action scenes and runs more than 4 minutes longer. In the film's prequels <a href="/title/tt1500491/">Death Race 2 (2010)</a> and <a href="/title/tt1988591/">Death Race: Inferno (2013)</a>; we find out that the original Frankenstein was Carl Lucas who was horribly burned in a crash. However, advancements in experimental plastic surgery eventually managed to heal Lucas and give him back his face. He later escapes from prison along with his co-pilot and pit crewmember. But not before framing the cold-hearted and tyrannical Company Man Niles York who assumed control of Death Race. York gets horribly burned in a crash caused by Lucas in which it's announced that Katrina and York were killed. However York was only horribly burned and Lucas and Katrina had escaped. Lists confirms York is Frankenstein and so he is forced to don the mask and compete in the races. It's likely he was the one killed on the track in the beginning of this film. a5c7b9f00b
