This is one of those types of movies, in which someone, probably Dax Shepard, decided that he wanted to be some sort of race car driver*. This movie sole purpose was so that he can drive around in really fast cars. A plot was created to make this movie, and here we are.
(*= IMDB - trivia section: Shepard did his own stunt driving).
-It was hard to follow where they were; and although there was a time-deadline, it really didn't add anything to this movie.
-Even with the expensive cars, the movie felt on the low-budget side.
-The characters weren't too bad, but it was obvious that some were created specifically for that scene (even if it didn't really have a solid purpose).
-Some parts of the script went a bit overboard; I don't necessarily mean subject matter, but more so that the conversation just kept going.
-The choice of music didn't fit most of the scenes it was paired with.
-My friend mentioned that the title of the movie had nothing to do with the content.
-I kept waiting for something to happen, and nothing really did.
-A lot of moments didn't add up to anything.
-It is listed as a comedy, and the trailer shows that, and Shepard added a lot of dry slapstick humor, but it didn't come across the way he intended.
-An extremely forgettable movie / little to no entertainment value.
-Would not recommend - has zero redeeming qualities (and I include the nice cars in that category).
I really didn't want to give this movie a zero, but I didn't like anything about it.
***SPOILER ALERT***
-Pretty much any car 'chase' scene was so choreographed. It felt as if they were going through an obvious course like you'd see on TV car commercials.
