Redline, a horrible movie

Redline, a horrible movie

So sometime last year, I, as most motorheads, heard about Eddie Griffen wrecking a Ferrari Enzo at some driving event. The car was owned by the director of a movie called Redline, a movie that Eddie was in, and this driving event was supposed to be a promotion for.

I think Eddie wrecking the car must of been the best promotion this movie ever could have asked for, because the movie itself sucked. The thing only grossed 6 million dollars, after a 4 million dollar opening weekend, that should tell you something. From the IMDB page it looks like the estimated budget was 26 million.

This movie was horrible, I can't believe how bad it was. The quality of the picture was very good, clear, crisp, but the story, racing, lines were just plain idiotic. I can't believe a movie like this was even made.

So now you too can say you have seen an indy car "jump the curb"... they might have at least had the decency to add a flashing red lightbar to the nose, and let the car talk during the movie...
