Bucking trends since 1968

I find this hard to believe but I liked Speed Racer more than I liked Iron Man. I found that the after-escape armor design portion kind of dragged on forever and that the final battle was very anti-climatic. While in Speed Racer, I could not take my eyes off the screen. The story was pretty week in Speed Racer with plot holes big enough to drive the Mach 5 through, but overall it was just more entertaining. And the visuals were amazing. If you get the chance you should see this in the big screen.
