Great fun. Some superb car chases and some of the most glorious cars ever made. Well directed and well acted by a solid cast. Not a movie I expected to like, if I'm honest. but one that won me over very quickly. Great.

Hmmmmmm

It's more like asleep in 60 seconds. It's more of a Chav fest. If I went to see it in the cinema then I would have been surrounded by Burberry wearing text messaging chavs and their chavettes. Nicolas Cage is not the most versatile of actors so it the perfect film for him.

Excellent Film

Considering I'm not exactly a fan of either Nick Cage or Angelina Jolie in this film they were perfectly cast as a pair of former lovers and car thieves, great little story, real on screen chemistry and excellent supporting cast makes for a must see film...........Great!

Disappointing on every level

I rented this expecting a bit of brainless entertainment, and even so I was disappointed. Its problem is, it can't decide what it wants to be - it's not funny enough to be comedy, not exciting enough to be action, not tense or dramatic enough for a thriller, and - perhaps most unforgivably - there's not even enough car fetishism for it to be decent auto-porn. A missed opportunity indeed.

Anything with Nicolas Cage in it has to be good! The plot was fairly predictable but good fun!

cars, action and romance

Great film with cars, action and a little romance great for both men and women, 24 hours to steal cars for a not very nice man, its bound to have a hitch or two

fantastic

I rented this movie for the cars and the end chase which is worthy of sitting through the film in the first place..you don`t really need to follow the story ,just watch for the end..cage is simply great in this role

This is little more than a prolonged car chase, and is about as exciting as a motorway gridlock.
