3.0 out of 5 stars ok, April 8, 2000

Track 1 is great, it's the one at the end credit of the movie. The rest is ok but with no signification. Fair...

2.0 out of 5 stars this is not the cd I wanted, August 15, 1999

I thought I was getting the original motion picture "SPEED" but I got this one. This cd is not bad but it is not as good as the oficial "SPEED" sound track by far.

A bit of a hodge podge of songs from the successful Keanu Reeves flick Speed. Plus a few other bits 'n' pieces 'inspired by' aforesaid film.

A brief perusal of the track listing will probably tell you if there is anything interesting you want to score yourself and given how cheap this thing sells for if there is something you are even half interested in hearing it's probably worth it, heck, the postage will cost you more than the product in all probability.

My own two cents worth is that there are a few rock radio staples here like Pat Benatars Rescue Me and a couple of cool numbskull rockers in Mr Speed by KISS and Speed from Billy Idol but little else that really makes this thing hang together as anything other than a random bunch of tunes. Gary Numan, Ric Ocasek and the Gin Blossoms certainly aren't nobodies, but this collection of songs really does feel like your friend with bland taste in music hitting 'shuffle' on his ipod.

Like I say - check the track listing as there may be some curio you are after. Otherwise this is fairly inconsequential.
