Should You Give Speed Racer a Second Chance?
- 8 years ago
Speed Racer is a fun, brightly colored, live action adaptation of a classic anime that flopped at the box office, but is it as bad as you thought it might be?
The Wachowskis followed up their hit film The Matrix by attempting to bring a crazy anime about futuristic car racing to life. Even with the big stars and Hollywood backing the film was a theatrical and critical failure, but did it get a bad rap? The Cinefix team is going to try to figure out if Speed Racer is worth watching so you know if you should give it a second chance.
Have you seen Speed Racer? What do you think of it? Have we convinced you to give the movie a second chance? What movies do you think got a bad rap and deserve another look?

There are a lot of reasons we won’t go see a movie or that we’ll refuse to re-watch it. Sometimes we skip movies because of bad reviews, sometimes we have bad memories of them from our childhood, and sometimes we just assume we won’t like it. Whatever the reason may be there are some movies that are worth giving a second chance to and we’re going to tell you why. Welcome to Second Chances!
