This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

The only thing i have to say other than this movie being the(hands down) worst movie i've ever seen, and sad to say ill never get this hour and odd minutes of my life back...Apart from that, LMFAO to the douche bag who says "I don't race ricers" trying to imply it to a "m5 swapped" 525i as he's leaning on a bright yellow HONDA S2k.. F*CKING TOOLThe writers should have really done some more research into what they were trying to make a movie about. I couldn't even imagine what drugs someone was on to approve the script for this movie.The only positive thing/good thing about this movie were the blue Supra and the red Skyline at the end.. I'm surprised i didn't see them cast a Daewoo Lanos into that jalopy of cars..

Watching Street Racer with an open mind and fairly low expectations I still found the film to be terrible in all regards. You may think that considering it's The Asylum that you know it's going to be so, but at the same time you are curious to see if any of their movies are watchable. So far of the twenty or so I've seen(so far, yeah I know but there's something compulsive about the awfulness of these movies), none of them have been, and Street Racer is no exception. While not quite bottom 5- Alien Origin, Titanic II, 2010: Moby Dick, AVH: Alien vs. Hunter and Transmorphers- it is a contender for bottom 10. The lead actor Clint Browning actually tries his best and is decent, but the rest of the acting, especially from Connor Clayton, is awful, full of over-acting or phoning in. The characters and script do nothing in their favour this said, the characters are annoying cardboard cut-outs and the script is unbearably stilted and goes well overboard with the profanity. The story is blandly and predictably told, with a stupid death scene for the villain, characters, props and plot points cropping up and disappearing with no explanation and a very rushed ending. The races have no excitement or drive to them and are further disadvantaged by extremely amateurish editing and camera work. I couldn't even appreciate the car models, which didn't even look that expensive anyway, because of this. The music is nothing special coming across as generic and forgettable. Overall, a film about cars with nothing new or exciting. 1/10 Bethany Cox

First off, I rent every car movie that comes out because I love cars. But this film has changed my whole outlook on what people think is acceptable as a car flick. This film was terrible from the cars they chose to the dialog they spoke. It was predictable all the way to the end. Except for the very end when ***SPOILER*** the cop comes at them with a gun for no reason and gets hit by the car. They had no need to put that in unless they felt that someone just HAD to die.***MORE SPOILERS*** The cars they used were all stock and couldn't even be considered "race" cars by any means. It would have made the movie that much better if they had at least tried to find some cars that were modified for racing. It wouldn't of even cost them any money. You can look on car forums and find hundreds of people with modified cars that would be more than willing to get their car feature in a film.The dialog was so predictable. It seemed as though the actors were stalling their words, like they were forgetting their lines and trying their hardest to remember.

Oh man....it was clear from the get go, that this is one top-notch film...both the acting and the quality of the film itself was Oscar-worthy!!! What a great racing movie! One can only give this fine piece of cinematic gold the respect it rightly deserves...being a car enthusiast myself, I watched this movie's several street races, and judging by the uber-realistic sound loops and the fact that a Scion xB could EASILY outrun an M5 engine-swapped BMW...I can only say that the realism was astounding. The acting...superb. These no-name actors give the performance of a lifetime! It seems as if they are dubbed over, speaking in a giant echo tunnel, and it gives the movie that magical B-movie feeling I was looking for!!! Anyways...be sure to rent this one for SURE, especially if you're a tried and true street racer type like me! Also don't forget to stab yourself in the eye after watching this fine piece of work, because you won't want to watch ANYTHING ELSE as long as you live!Dueces!
