Let me preface this by saying I loved this movie. It was just amazing campy fun. It was silly, it was stupid, and in more than one portion made me shake my head in disbelief. But I felt like a little boy watching it, and I can't help but think that was the goal.

They're not re-creating the wheel here. No one is trying to show you how bad ass Speed is. They made a fun romp that stayed true to the source material, and I wouldn't have it any other way. It's a kids movie with huge special effects and cool races.

I have to think if you went to see it tripping balls you'd love it even more than I did.

Have a fantastic weekend, kids.

Until Tuesday…
