Good Effort

Jason Statham is the British version of a young Clint Eastwood, with the steely stare. He has more than just 6-guns, with guns for arms and martial arts brutal skills. If he wasn't going totally bald, he could do it all.... Full review

Yeah, its violent but it's entertaining! It paints a picture that is also entirely possible in 2012 given our current financial crisis coupled with the so-called "change" we will be getting soon. Any ways, Jason Statham is one of the best... Full review

Although the story is different than the original Death Race 2000, it still sticks to the original concept and provides a lot of entertainment and action. This movie is action packed from the very first scene. NObody is going to win... Full review

This movie may have been bashed by critics, but then I don't usually agree with them anyway. This movie was great... why does a movie always have to make you think to be good? The movie may have been implausible, but... Full review

Making the assumption that no one is going to watch Death Race expecting high art, there really is a lot to like about this film.....and find Gibson a little bland....Characterisation, motivation and plot are all weak points (really what did you expect) but dialogue is alternatively brilliantly funny and hilariously bad.....The cast really is quite impressive, even....as ever we love Statham.... ...

Jason Statham looks as though he could play the role of Jensen Ames in his sleep and all credit goes to Statham for making him as interesting as he does. When three-time speedway champion Jensen Ames (Jason Statham) is framed for murdering his wife, he is sent to Terminal Island, where the country's worst criminals are imprisoned. ... Full Review

Death Race" is an enjoyable film.....While this is another very good looking release of "Death Race," the desaturated palette hinders the film....The film was cheesy, but it was fun....the visuals of the film have been twisted and contorted by Director of Photography Scott Kevan to create a visual world where colors are muted....This is easily my favorite Paul W.S. Anderson picture and one of only two films directed by the filmmaker.... ... Full Review
