Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"The action sequences are spectacular, and staged with a minimum of digital fakery." - 03/13/2014 Wall Street Journal


"The best parts of NEED FOR SPEED are the actual racing and chasing sequences -- a true thrill ride for the audience as the story unfolds." - 03/13/2014 Chicago Sun-Times


"Its first and best racing sequence -- set at night on the twisty streets of a small town -- is a minor triumph of old-school craft..." - 03/13/2014 A.V. Club


"[With] a tailor-made role for the sly, inventive and chronically underrated Keaton, and he does much to guide NEED FOR SPEED ably across the finish line." - 03/11/2014 Variety


"When Aaron Paul’s Tobey Marshall is behind the wheel -- and a crew of stuntmen are wreaking some refreshingly non-CG automotive havoc -- director Scott Waugh’s movie is a blast." - 03/12/2014 Hollywood Reporter
