First things first, I need to get this off my chest. "This is for Pete!!" Everyone, including people who knows Pete and others who never met him or probably met him once says this dialogue! Come on, Pete is a kid mechanic, he's not a world-class racing car driver or the most important person on earth that everyone keeps chanting his name. I get it that Tobey and his friends keep saying it which makes sense, but the British babe who probably met him once and the De Leon presenter who probably never heard of him keeps saying this sounds a bit ridiculous! Pete, great going mate, you have been immortalised by everyone in the NFS universe!Besides this small niggle, this is an awesome film. I can't imagine the number of times I watched the police-chase scene or the office strip-tease scene! The office scene is pure ingenious. I fell in love with Mustang after seeing this film and might even consider getting one. There are ridiculous, over-the-top action scenes but what did you expect? This is a fun, logic-defying film made out of a hugely successful video game franchise. Acting wise, Aaron Paul was spot on. He underplayed his role with super cool attitude and it totally works. His gang of friends are equally impressive with a special mention to Rami Malek for the impressive office strip scene. And then, Imogen Poots with her super-cute British Accent was a delight to watch. (I loved the way she says "Oh! For my mug shot" just before the police chase scene!)So, a totally fun move and I recommend it if you are a fan of this genre. For me, I like this move more than the Fast And Furious series.

Great movie, people have to remember it's a movie based on a very popular game, the movie is just what it should be amazing cars, cops, speed and cheesy lines loved it

This review contains spoilers.Need for Speed stars Aaron Paul as the lead character out for revenge as he is framed for deaths caused by illegal street racing. The story follows the beginning of the illegal street race to his redemption as he clears his name. The plot is an excuse to show high octane races that are fun to watch. There are elements from the video games that are present in the movie such as police chases and traps.Need for Speed is first and foremost meant to be a fun movie. From the beginning of the movie, the cast look like they are having a fun time. The fun of the movie is dragged down by the plot and main character's dreariness. The side characters however pick up the tone and the movie becomes fun again. This movie has a fun group of side characters with stand-outs played by Imogen Poots and Rami Malek. These characters are the biggest positive in the movie. The problems of the movie are its plot and its lack of drive. The plot was not engaging. The plot only seemed to be an excuse to show its more creative racing rather than form an engrossing story and world.Even though the plot is basic, I would recommend Need for Speed. It is a competently directed movie that is high octane fun.

Truly awful, words can't describe how bad this movie is.
