I just bought the Speedracer movie tonight, which came with a Mach 5 Hotwheels. I really enjoyed the movie when I saw it in the iMax, so naturally, I was thrilled when it came out on DVD. By coincidence, I was also able to find the Speedracer video game (for Wii) at the local Movie Scene. Overall, it was a great evening. I enjoyed both the game and watching the movie once again. The only bad thing was that it just wasn’t the same watching it on a 27″ standard definition TV…but I guess I’ll get over it. :-) If you’re a fan of Speedracer or a fan of a good racing game, I’d recommend both! The movie is quite colorful, and full of action, along with some great family times. It’s definitely a great movie for both kids and adults! It’s even got a bit of romance for you girls out there. The game is straight-up racing fun with cool “car-fu” attacks. It uses the Wii Remote sideways (or attached to the Wii Wheel).
