Why so much hype?

The Worst Film Ever

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Which is hardly a compliment. But at least the quality is of high standard. The acting starts off on a very low note, but reaches average by the end of this flick.The story is a follows: Year 2008. In an alternate universe Germany is apparently a British colony (everyone speaks British English, even German policemen amongst themselves). In this Shakespearen language loving country the new craze is street car racing. Naturally these go hand in hand with hot crazed chicks and crooks. Katie Reed (Erin Cahill) is an orphaned kid, whose only heirloom is a body-shop and repair-shop. Indebted she tries to do everything possible to get $60 000, including having sex with the bank representative. And she has three days to do so.As she has two expensive race cars she decides to push up the ante and risk the cars for some street-car racing gambling. Honestly each of the cars looks to be worth some $50000-$60000. But instead of selling them she decides its better to risk them crashing and becoming worthless. I understand she's sentimental but we are told that the repair shop is the dearest thing on earth for her, not the cars... so why just not sell one of the two cars to get out of debt? That essentially is how ridiculous the plot is (that and for instance people cheering the winner of a race, whilst another car is burning and the driver may well be blown up any second now... and really no one actually wants this guy to die). Fortunately productions creds are very high and it looks like a decent budget was thrown into making this movie. Car chases are well choreographed (?) and if you like that kind of thing you may well ignore the stupidity of the characters and the shallowness of the script.

Fast Track is going to be available in hotels across the US starting December 1st, 2009. So now you know, on your next trip, if one night you just want to stay in the room and watch and exciting movie, this is the one!!! If you like movies where you can feel the adrenaline and excitement while you are watching it; I would recommend it to you for sure! You will see scenes that would race your heart, full of action and velocity. But at the same time, the drama side of this movie would make you understand why these four people have so much passion for speed. And of course, heart racing would have to be mixed up with hot sexy scenes.

The acting and storyline were worse than Starship Troopers... I was hoping to be entertained by this film since I am into tuner cars, all that. I was disappointed by cheap, old, ugly cars. Honestly my Mitsubishi Eclipse would destroy 90% of the cars in this movie. This movie was made in 2008? The clothes people were wearing, even if this is in Germany, reflected the clothing our parents wore in the early 90s that we have tried to forget. Also, the movie had a yellow tint to it for a good portion of the movie, which made it even more cheesy. With the bad camera angles used, I am fully confident that a few friends and myself could make a better movie. Thank goodness it only cost me $1 from red box to rent this; lord knows how it even made it into the red box machine.

This movie is the pinnacle of Bosnian and redneck drivers kicking Russian asses in the German underground. The plot consists of a family garage, love and life at stake and a gangster thrown in for not much reason. Then there is good vs. evil vs. not –so-sure, which, by far, is the best part. While the movie tries to deliver the feeling of a German underground racing mixed with family and emotional values it fails at the very heart of it - the racing part. The racing drivers are cruising with an A4 and a police BMW 5th series (not to be confused with M5) doing their usual police/theft chases and through the night they are racing Fords, Nissans and… not much more! Add the famous Z4 Coupe just to make sure you get how much of 'real' racers they are.The 'gangster' has a Bentley and a few Ferraris in the garage, but of course they are not so fast. Let's just not mention how famous Europeans are for their love of Japanese and especially American cars as it is well described in Top Gear, Fifth Gear, every car magazine ant the sales charts... Then there is the fact that within 250 km. range from the filming location there are about 20 faster serial models being produced...well let's forget about that. I blame the low budget for not letting one of those cars get involved, but that is part of the 'magical' experience in my view. On the positive note there are some kick-ass driving in the movie. Acting is not that cheesy, although you could hardly like most of the characters, they are good enough to provoke some emotional attachments. I give it 4 out of 10 because it is a good try for the German cinema. Although, I have no idea what Germany had to do with it. The classy act from the main two racers makes up for the step from 3 to 4. A mediocre time waster if you got a lot of it.
