Well, the superhero movies have sucked their last dollar out of me. I don't like watching movies just to see things blown up. The writers and director are so much into showing off their destructive action sequences that they didn't pause to consider whether soneone would actually give an F. Superthin plot. The occasional quip grom Ultron or an Avenger gets old quick with nothing else to support it. We're clearly dealing with high school humor here. I really like the scene where the earth is caving in, thousands of people obviously meeting gruesome deaths, and yet a few Avengers take the time to save one woman in a falling vehicle...NOT.

Deathrace is a very entertaining action movie. It'll keep your attention all the way. Just a couple minor picking points:

1) I would have made better use of the girls/sidekicks. Sex sells, death sells; sex and death - great combo. Maybe an impalement or two, severed head, gunshot wounds, etc on a couple of the chicks. 2) Although most of the one-liners were spot on, the dialogue prior to the final race installment was too cheesy and unnecessary:

case (to frank): "do what you do best...drive"

coach: "this is going to be interesting" 3) I would have ended the movie right after the last explosion/comment by "coach". That last bit was a little too corny/unbelievable.
