First time I've seen this film, despite owning a set of curtains featuring the characters for several years...in my 30s.
2 hours for a kids film is a bit much lads. A lot of car-racing gags that I didn't really get. I liked the Italian guys.
Gotta be honest, I watched this after a Insta reel mocking Jason Statham's formulaic films. But some teenage nostalgia from me. Rewatching many years later, and its still an incredible film.
Featuring
-Jason Statham apparently trying to do an American accent!?
-70s porno soundtrack
-Repetitive shots of the same road
-An oil fight
-Very hot actress
What more can you ask for?
