I loved this movie. I didn't know anything about it before I started watching it, but decided to give it a go, since I've seen some really good Japanese movies lately, and must admit they can do it really well in Hong Kong too. I am usually not a big fan of action movies, but for me, this was pure magic. I loved the story, the wonderful music and the actors (Sky is lovely). They mixed the racing scenes very well with a really nice story. At times very sad and emotional. Easy to get familiar with the characters. Very well acted.It reminded me _a little bit_ of "West Side Story", and also some elements from "Lola Rennt". Wonderful. I would recommend everyone to see this.

I like this film! It's not the greatest of movies to come out of HK, but it's fun and fast, with an edge! I also had the good luck to be in HK for the millenium celebrations when this movie was showing, so I saw it on the big screen in the heart of HK, so maybe that atmosphere made the movie better in my memory. I'd love to see it again if anyone knows where I can get a copy!

Its a really great film ~ came out before The Fast and the Furious. Crazy racing scenes and a really hot intro - the cars were hot , the girl's hot. Cecillia DOES get annoying now and then but she's alright. The plot was alright - more to offer than FnF. Watch it if you like racer movies!

If you liked the Fast & The Furious I guess that you would like this Film also. Has a good storyline mixed in with some `Ridge Racer' type racing. The FATF has copied large chunks of this film. Especially the Nitrous oxide injections and in-car computer `warning your car is about to blow' up kind of thing.
