3.0 out of 5 stars
An unbelievable movie (spoiler inside)., August 25, 2002
It's an unbelievable movie. I mean it literally.
The final drag race scene is totally impossible. The two supersonic cars will interfere each other. They will surely kill each other during the race. Maybe even before they reach mach 1.
This movie is totally a non-sense. The rocket cars are beautiful. The stripper girl in wonder woman bra looks great. But the plot is cheesy and its rocket science, well, [phooey].

Landspeed, You have to see it. Outstanding., February 21, 2010
I looked everywhere for this movie. I saw it on the pay channels on cable every now and then and then looked for it on DVD. I couldn't find it anyhwere. I always bought from Amazon since the product base widened. I finally found it and could not be any happier with my purchase. Love you Amazon.com.

H-wood eats bad script-gets the runs., October 20, 2009
The times Hollywood has got any movie having anything to do with cars right are so few and far between that you barely need the fingers of your second hand to count them.
I was excited when I learned they were making an LSR movie, but my feelings of trepidation over Hollywood trying to depict car culture again were more than well-founded.
The technical advisor (if any), would do better to open a dry-cleaner. The script-writer should be tied-up while Craig Breedlove beats the idea of ever writing another car story out of him. The director deserves to be haunted by the ghosts of Art Arfons, Sir Malcolm Campbell and oh, Mickey Thompson.
LSR racing is a fascinating pursuit populated with fascinating characters. It could make a wonderful story if it were done right.
There were some actors-such as Billy Zane, who could have really done something worthwhile here if given a decent script and direction.
On the level of mindless entertainment, I suppose it is passable. However, I imagine that any afficionados of this discipline of racing would join me in thanking Hollywood for making such a ridiculous, steaming pile of a movie.
