First of all I must mention that this is a film only review, I have not seen the DVD so can't comment on any extras or anything like that. So Gone In Sixty Seconds came out back in the year 2000. This is an all action film staring Nicholas Cage and the rather lovely Anglina Jolie. This film was a big hit at the time as fast cars and pretty people seems to draw in the crowds at the cinema! The film was directed by Dominic Sena. The film tells the story of a retired car thief. Yet Memphis Raines in no ordinary car thief, he is the best there is.

I like dooyoo. dooyoo gives me the chance to read what normal people honestly think of things that I am contemplating using. I especially like this where film reviews are concerned.

Gone in 60 seconds is a great fun, provided you switch off your mind while watching it. This is a good action movie that, while not really bringing anything new to the genre, is entertaining and fun to watch. I think the fact that I'm writing this opinion within about 15 minutes of watching the film shows my addiction to dooyoo, although I'll just use the excuse that I want to keep the film fresh in my mind so I don't forget anything (anyone really convinced with this explanation? :). The film starts with a car theft and that's pretty much all that happens throughout the film, giving lots of excuses for great car chases and other action ...  Read the complete review
