It's Wednesday (?)! I really have nothing else to say as of this point other than today's theme, which is...
A MOVIE NO ONE WOULD EXPECT ME TO LOVE
Well, a lot of people respect my taste in movies. I hate bad movies, love good movies, and give fair analysis to the movies in between. But there is one really bad movie that I really liked. I loved Speed Racer, which monumentally tanked at the box office. Exaggeration aside, it really wasn't a great movie, but I was in love with it. I wasn't the biggest fan of the acting (especially on Christina Ricci's part), but I looked at this like a sports movie, but in the future. The visual effects of the movie were cluttered, but beautiful. The racing was intense with some of the coolest looking sequences I've ever seen. It embraces its cheesy roots, but in my opinion, it should have embraced it even more. It is a movie based on an animated television show and it took itself too seriously, which led to the movie's downfall. But look past that and watch it with the enthusiasm of a child. Watch the immensely amazing race car driving and look at how each little thingamajig is used. That's how I watched it, and unexpectedly, fell in love with it. Mount up! Yea, I know it's from S.W.A.T., but it sounds really cool.
