not a bad movie alittle hard to understand what they are saying because they are using a british or english accent. the movie didnt really have much of a budget and no wheres near the budget of fast and furious movies. but the cars and the driving make up for it. i first saw it in a video store but i never heard anything about the movie so it sparked my curiousity. i couldnt find a trailer for it so i just went and bought it at the video store on dvd. i reccomend if you want to see it rent or buy the dvd. the widescreen is a pretty good transfer. the picture is pretty clean but the sound lacks because its a dolbly 2.0 not dolby digital. i couldnt find a place that had the dvd for rentthe video store only had the vhs for rent so i bought the dvd. i paid less...so i got my moneys worth.

I think I've finally found the worst movie ever created. Seriously, Red Lined is the dumbest, most pointless film ever put together. The DVD package makes it look like it's about racing, Fast and Furious style. However, ten minutes into the movie there was no racing, and i became pretty concerned. Turns out there's no racing at all in the movie, the movie instead focuses on a poorly developed "plot" that involves little more than a rich european guy with a riced out nissan and his buddies being pissed off at some other people that don't play that big of a part in the movie at all. It's safe to say that i'm a lot dumber through watching this movie. After I finished it (yes, i sat through the whole thing... i thought it could get better) I was so pissed that i went outside and threw the dvd into the street just to have someone else find it and get pissed off like i was. i should've taken a mallet and crushed the thing into pieces. The acting is weak, the cars could be better, the lines make absolutely no sense at all, and a drunk retarded monkey could have used better cinematography than these guys did. Horrible. Absolutely horrible.

I can't even say how lame this movie was. The guy that wrote it, all the cast, the director, and anyone who had anything to do with making this movie should be kicked the face with a golf shoe for making me lose IQ points sitting through it. I just lost more IQ points seeing the cover for my review.

This movie synopsis is the most misleading movie synopsis that has ever existed. If there was ever movie that was the poster child for Bait and Switch Tactics this movie would be it. The movie has almost nothing to do with cars except for one short and pathetic chase, and everything to do with drug dealing and gangs. Which is fine if the movie was advertised as such, but it isn't.

As a large fan of the compact sport scene this movie is by far the worst "Car" movie ever created. For those who thought the cars in The F&F line of movies were "Riced" out, this movies redefines "Rice" With its horrible cars that feature a more than "Riced" out Nissan 200SX and several other cars that were obviously rejects from "The Fast and The Furious" line of movies. There is nothing attractive about the cars except possibly the right hand drive SS that only shows up for about a minute during the movie.

Overall if you ever get the urge to watch this movie, your time is better spent watching re-runs of Saved By The Bell.

Basically, the dvd cover is a misrepresentation of what the movie is actually about. The opening scene takes a long long long time to get into any action or dialog, I was sleeping halfway into the intro. At first the cars draw you in, but then you start to get the feeling that "the cars are the only thing that made anyone spend money on this film"...only to be let down. The story isn't bad, there is even a laugh here & there, but a couple actors make the movie suck, not to mention the lack of street racing...the selling point that greatly misleads you to believe you'll see some hot imports burning up the street. Thumbs down...so much potential with poor follow through. Someone needs to go to film school because this movie did the unthinkable, it put some crying kids to sleep...long boring intro. Sorry guys, I wish I could have been there to tell you guys "Get on with it!...The intro is too long!...Not enough car racing!...Fire a couple actors!"

A crime against the entire cinimatic experience, this is by far one of the worst movies I've ever seen. After having a great time at certain "superstore", we picked this movie out of the bin where they sell the movies that don't sell. We even got questioned about our age because the movie is actually rated R; I broke down laughing in line at that point. The "plot" was more confusing than informative. Theres some kind of buisness deal that goes on and the main character gets screwed over by this other guy, but don't quote me on this because this all the plot I could understand. The acting consisted of "British", who we decided were actually imported Australian actors who were impossable to understand. Every scene just simpily made the movie more and more confusing, while all the actors kind of looked the same throughout the entire movie, so you aren't too sure who's who. Theres only one real character, "Jim" and no one else in the movie had a name except for a midget named "Sniffs" who is in 10 seconds of the entire movie. There is as little talking as possable which just leaves you confused because the only talking you do hear you can't understand. Oh turn on the subtitles, yea, the only subtitles that they offer are in spanish, that's it. There is so little racing in this movie I was appaule because the cover shows this sweet racing sequence that doesnt even happen, those two cars featured on the cover aren't even in the movie for that matter. There's only one racing sequence in the entire movie, and I've seen beter in Stephen Seagal action movies. The rest of the car stuff is random cars peeling out, which is lame by the way. Oh I forgot, I actually got a head ache from watching this because this cheep, cheesy techno music plays throughout the whole movie, nonstop. If your looking for a good time laughing at how bad this movie is, I suggest it, otherwise stay away at all costs.

Ok the reason this movie got even two stars was cuz the cars were pretty decent. I saw this for rent at a video store one day and being a big fan of the import racing scene I had to see it. It was so lame, it was about like drug dealers and gangs and all that crap. The closest thing to racing in this was a chase on a highway. Not worth the money I paid to rent it. Don't make the same mistake I did cuz ur wasting ur time.
