Speedracer

So this movie was more of a homage to the original, although it has a signifigant re-write (well, it takes liberties anyways), but it's kind of cool the way they did it. I don't think I've ever watched the original cartoon all the way through, but I'm familiar with the basic premise (complex it is not). The race scenes are genius, the rest smaltz.

I'd say it's a B-, if they could have taken maybe 15% out and erased the geeky dude that never had a full shirt it would have been an A-, sorry W brothers, this is nothing like the original Matrix or even V. Not too bad for a movie you can watch with your kids though.
