Corrida Fatal

This film pretty much gets everything wrong. As a film that is trying to make its share from the popularity of the Fast and Furious franchise, Fast and Fierce shows a complete lack of understanding of what makes Fast and Furious so popular and successful.

The writing is shocking. At times it even dips into the same territory as The Room but in a way that is embarrassing than endearing.

The acting isn't very good either, it gives the impression that all the actors are amateurs and that this is their first time acting, and whoever directed the film chose their first takes of every scene they did.

What makes Fast and Furious so exciting to watch is that the films, during the races, are very visually stylized. In Fast and Fierce, we have shaky cam, fast editing that sometimes breaks continuity, and shots of actors who don't look like they know what they are supposed to be reacting to.

I draw comparisons to Fast and the Furious, not only because of its alternative title Fast and Fierce, but also because they even use the line "I live life a quarter mile at a time" so it's begging for the comparison. The film ends with a weird interjection that is out of place and in a situation that does not really give much resolution to anything.

The romance is forced and so cliche that the film would have been better off without it.

I didn't have high expectations for this film and, indeed, it lived up to those quite low expectations. This is easily the kind of film you can enjoy with friends if you all enjoy watching cheaply made, imitations of big budget Hollywood films. There is entertainment value with this, but it's better with friends. Not so bad it's good, but it's campy, hammy, and corny enough for a bad movie night.

Firstly, the name is a selling point, but nothing like the Fast and Furious, nor the Death Race franchises.

The plot is that a millionaire puts on an illegal race from Mexico to L.A. with people betting on the race. It's not a comedy tho, just that same betting poll seen in Rat Race. However no one who places any bets is seen and it can become very confusing to pick up on this. Three drivers have been selected and for some reason some supposedly legendary drivers brother has been reeled in to owe a lot of money to the guy who puts on this race so he can get him to enter his race and make some bigger money. With a bunch of kidnapping and blackmail going on, the main guy enters the race and ends up meeting his Frog along the way who is the millionaires ex girlfriend and needs to get to L.A. with a flash-drive containing evidence to take the millionaire down. Now the main driver has everyone trying to kill him to get the girl, except for those at checkpoints. Will they get to L.A alive?

The film has a lot of stupid plot points to get this guy to drive, and the motive is explained, but blink and you'll miss it. I can see why other reviewers are saying "where's the plot?" What's most likely happened here is the film ran over budget, and they edited together what they had, with key ex machina scenes not filmed, and the climax completely ruined and rushed with what they could film quickly to just have something to end on.

Had this film explained itself better and had a decent ending, it would be pretty good. But what it is is a film that was ok up till the very end with a god awful way to end the film.

Overall, I wouldn't bother. It will just leave you disappointed like you wasted your time watching something half decent only to feel in the end like the movie took a dump on you and ran away.

Honest review.....! This is the worst movie i've seen this year. Not worth even one star!!!!

If there is a rating in minus this thing deserves it hands down

I don't mind watching low budget movies, foreign movies. But this is something else. Story 0 Director 0 Post production - 100 Only the cast I can't judge because with this crew even Tom cruise can look bad
