I saw this movie advertised on the TV saying it was out on video and it looked impressive. So I bought it. Simple as that. When I watched it, it struck me as being a great movie, not just a good movie. I am sure you've read a whole host of these opinions by now, so you know what happens, but I'll give you a brief synopsis: ... Read the complete review

This films main characters are Nicholas Cage who is as far as I am concerned a very good actor, Angelina Jolie, the one in Tomb Raider and Vinnie Jones, you should know him! Nicholas Cage plays 'Memphas Rain' a man who 'has' put crime behind him and now has a job in a go-kart ride place. Although his brother hasn't packed it in yet and ... Read the complete review

If you believe that the main adjective that can be applied to a car is a colour and/or that the purpose of a car is getting from A to B, then you won't really see the point of this film. If however, when writing your Dooyoo "top ten TV programmes" op you considered anything including a certain Jeremy Clarkson, or the following mean ... Read the complete review

Yes, thats what i was saying throughout this fantastic blockbuster. Call it sad, but if you like your fast cars and a favourable ammount of action, then this film has to be one for the list. I purchased this film on DVD, and i found very quickly that the meaning of the DVD lives up to its expectations with this film. The DVD emphesises ... Read the complete review

You pretty much know what your getting with a bruckheimer movie, orange sky's, action, all things cool etc, etc. And yet again he doesn't disappoint. Directed by Michael Bay (Bad Boys, The Rock) its fast and furious fun, or as most new papers insist "High Octane". Nicolas Cage plays "Memphis" Raynes, ... Read the complete review

Gone in 60 seconds stars Angelina Jolie and Nicholas Cage. Containing a lot of fast cars and involving a lot of money. Unlike the original Gone in 60 seconds, this one is full of special effects, great sounds and it cost a lot more to make! Randall 'Memphis' Raines (Cage) is a retired car theif who works on a race track ... Read the complete review

A remake in the Bruckheimer (sans Simpson) style of a minor '70s car theft/chase/crash movie (that was written, directed by and starred H.B. Halicki), this is an identikit of recent big-bucks action pictures still mired in the style Bruckheimer - director Dominic Sena barely registers - 'perfected' in the '80s. It brings back ...

If you are into nice cars and an action packed storyline then this definately is the film for you! I liked this movie to bits. The characterisation in this film is really shallow and the plot extremely simple - it probably would have been laughable if it did not star Cage. He definately makes the film in terms of the characters. However, this is ... Read the complete review

60 seconds is not far off what it might have taken the producer, Jerry Brukheimer (of Con Air, Pearl Harbour fame) to put together this action packed farce. A re-hash of a formerly unknown B-movie this has all the signs of "how to make a quick buck" project. The anorexic plot puts Nicholas Cage up against the clock to steal a ... Read the complete review

I can't believe that I missed the opportunity to see this film in the cinema. It is definately one you have to watch on the big screen to fully appreciate it. I remember when it first came out, and I promised myself that I had to see it - unfortunately I didn't have a chance to while it was in the cinema so the other night I went down to ...

Gone in 60 Seconds can be summed up as the typical summer blockbuster, no brains, but action trousers all the way. The thing is that it doesn't suffer (much) because of this, it does what it sets out to do all along. The film starts off by introducing us to a guy named Kip Raines who has tried and failed to steal 50 cars for a ... Read the complete review

The following opinion refers to the Region 1 release of the DVD. The Region 2 disk seems to have the same specification though. Do you like rock em sock em, adrenaline charged action movies? Think "Die Hard" and "The Rock". Come on, 'fess up? The latest addition to the cycle from the Jerry Bruckheimer stable is ... Read the complete review

I saw Gone in 60 Seconds in the cinema and thought it was excellent. It has some of the nicest cars you will ever see taking part in the best cars chases ever displayed on the silver screen. It is a very very good film and manages to get a good balance between plot and action. The plot involves Randall "Memphis" Raines ... Read the complete review

After taking a quiet couple of years to relax Nicolas Cage is back, nephew to Francis Ford Coppola and guaranteed box-office hit, in whichever movie he is in. This movie sounds good all ready, but it gets even better, produced by none other than Jerry Bruckheimer, the man who brought us the classics, the best of the best in movies, Top Gun (1986), ...

This seems to be one of those films which completely divides the audience. I have heard many people say how rubbish it was, with poor acting, little action, and bad story line. I have also heard just as many people talk about the brilliant chase scenes, interesting characters, and the stunning cars. I myself would have to stick with the latter ... Read the complete review
