Dismissed by most critics and audiences as a big-budget, candy-colored bomb on its initial release, Speed Racer has risen to cult status just 13 years later for the many who appreciate its groundbreaking digital environments and thrilling in-frame editing techniques.
Based on the late-1960s, Japanese-animated series of the same name, Speed Racer stars Emile Hirsch as a racing phenom who hopes to win the legendary race, The Crucible, toppling an evil corporation and saving his family’s business at the same time. Instead of delivering a conventional summer blockbuster, the Wachowskis managed to create one of the most expensive avant-garde films in history. With Susan Sarandon, John Goodman, and Christine Ricci. (135 mins., 35mm)
