Death Race Review

Movie Impression; Death Race

It’s FuGZ and i’ll be reviewing a movie i’ve watched recently; Death Race.


Starring one of my favourite actors from the Transporter, War (Rogue Assassin), Jason Statham, stars where racing is involved. Now don’t get it wrong, it’s not your typical sequels to The Fast & The Furious, but gives a serious feel like the first one.


But you do get Mr Tyrese Gibson from Too Fast Too Furious, ah, what a mix here.

So i hate to be spoiler but here’s a abit of the movie:


Racing.
Deathmatch.
Guns.
Missles.
Traps.
Demolition derby style.
Jailed.
No way out.

Jason Statham plays as three-time speedway champion Jensen Ames, an ex-con framed for a gruesome murder. Forced to don the mask of the mythical driver Frankenstein, a Death Race crowd favorite who seems impossible to kill, Ames is given an easy choice by Terminal Island’s ruthless Warden Hennessey (JOAN ALLEN of The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum): Suit up and drive or never see his little girl again.

His face hidden by a hideous mask, one convict will enter an insane three-day challenge in order to gain freedom. But to claim the prize, Ames must survive a gauntlet of the most vicious criminals—including nemesis Machine Gun Joe (TYRESE GIBSON of Transformers, 2 Fast 2 Furious)—in the country’s toughest prison. Trained by his coach (IAN MCSHANE of Deadwood, The Golden Compass) to drive a monster Mustang V8 Fastback outfitted with 2 mounted mini-guns, flamethrowers and napalm, an innocent man will destroy everything in his path to win the most twisted spectator sport on Earth.


So there, a very brief review of the movie. Now, my verdict?

As serious as the feel gets in this movie, it holds a serious feel similarly to the first The Fast and The Furious. Just that more lives are on the line, or should i say on the track.

earlier this evening i had a moment i really wanted to blog about. it was sweet heartwarming, and comforting all at the same time. sadly that moment has passed and its hard to describe what i had originally intended to write but i know it would have been one of my favourite posts.

but in that post these words would have appeared

soft smiles
sweet kisses, soft lips
sleeping faces,so serene.
realisation and beating hearts
gentle touches, comforting hands.
familiar room, dimly lit
warmth so deep.
scents,
rain, pitter patter,
love.

i know for one im going to fucking miss you.

and what i wouldnt give to pack u in my bags with me. =(
