RPM (1998)

Best movie ever!

Admirable film.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

As one reviewer came close to commenting. This film is above crticism. To do so, bequeathes it a degree of status to which it is not entitled. In fact the only reason to watch it, besides the plethora of droolable vehicles on show is the undeniable pleasure to be had (assuming one is male...actually in THIS day and age, that is probably no longer a necessary requisite!) watching the professionally curvy Miss Janssen removing her skimpy black knickers for the purpose of inflaming the passions of her mechanic whom she has just erotically doused with what looks like seriously low-grade motor oil!Anyone notice Jerry Hall scowling alongside the Aston Martin DB3? The years haven't been overly kind so it would seem, since her walk-on slinkathon in furs with Rock icon Bryan Ferry at the latter end of his "Lets Stick Together" film clip! Mind you...a life with Jagger??? But I digress! Arquette can never be anything but the goof he is..the film has by necessity been dumbed down to accommodate his dubious talents here. EIGHT LEGGED FREAKS I suspect is as good as ever he's likely to get. Having said that...he alone is not responsible for the talentless end-product that masquerades here as passable entertainment. You're talking el-cheapo production values, first-time actors, a script by creatively bereft 8th graders and hammy directing. Regrettably its not bad enough to be notable or off-beat enough to be vaguely interesting. What it IS....is a home movie that neither Janssen or Arquette would want to include on their resume!

Amazing!That is actually the dumbest film I've ever seen. The only thing that kept me from walking out was to see how bad could this go and believe me I was not disappointed.The plot (haha) is centered around some ultra fast car prototype that runs without fuel but that's just an excuse to put some (not enough) nice looking cars together with Famke Janssen (beautiful as always) in a stupid and boring flick that will make u laugh only at the weaknesses of the movie and not at the actual jokes.The stunts are sloppy, the dialogue is as cheesy as it could get, and there are so many plot holes that it just doesn't make any sense to list them.The only reason that I'm not disappointed is that I know now that if somebody asks me, which is the worst movie, I have the answer :)

I had a day dream today. I didn't have a job but I was filthy rich, I could pick up hot chicks with cheesy lines, I got to travel around the world and drive the C*#P out of KILLER classic cars (best part), and everything worked out exactly the way I wanted it to.Who in their right mind would watch a David Arquette movie for its plot?! Not me. Simple props and random plot changes, cheezy stunts, bad acting, making fun of French people...it's all deliberate and to me, it's a pretty smart parody on how ridiculous Hollywood is. Why not?But seriously, who cares? Get hammered and have a good time. It's all about the cars anyway!rock the house

If you were to take Gone in Sixty Seconds, and remove anything that even remotely looks like a plot, good acting, and direction, you would be left with a movie, and I use the term very loosely, called R.P.M. And the strange thing is, this movie was made way back in 1997! So I guess you could say that Jerry Bruckheimer got the idea for ‘Sixty Seconds from R.P.M…..Naw. Starring David Arquette and Famke Janssen, this `movie' is set in the south of France where Arquette is hired to steal the prototype of a gasless car named R.P.M. (Deciding the name of the car must have taken a whole 2 minutes.). Arquette and Janssen soon find themselves out for the same thing, and their `chemistry' between each other is very hard to swallow at times, all the way up to the ‘secret' they share with us by the end of the movie. Everything about this movie is wrong. From the acting, and again I use that term loosely, to the unrealistic one billion dollar paycheck for the R.P.M. If there is to be any redeeming qualities of this entire movie, I must admit that Famke Janssen is looking as beautiful as usual. It is this reviewers opinion to spare yourself the humiliation of actually paying money to rent this, and wait until it comes on regular t.v., not even HBO, and watch it in the privacy of your own home.
