What a beautiful movie!
Such a frustrating disappointment
not as good as all the hype
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
View MoreConvicted cop-killer Carl Lucas, aka Frankenstein, is a superstar driver in the brutal prison yard demolition derby known as Death Race. Only one victory away from winning freedom for himself and his pit crew. Death Race 3: Inferno is a film that wasn't mean't to be taken serious and yet somehow it has some cool twists in it's pocket, Luke Goss who does a great job in the main role and the rest of the cast also makes a great job too. The action sequences have a point and some of them are insane alongside a well made soundtrack. Overall Death Race: Inferno is not meant to entertain everyone but some will definitely have a good time. (8/10)
View MoreWell "Death Race: Inferno" sure is no match for the first movie (2008), but it is an improvement on the second movie (2010) - and I am not talking about the old original here, only the most recent movies.It can be discussed whether or not moving the location for the death race to South Africa is a good idea or not. Personally, then I found it to be a nice change of pace, although there was just something more interesting to the course when it was held at the prison area. But South Africa does have some nice touches to the track.Story-wise, then it is essentially the same routine, nothing much new to be seen here. And the story is semi-predictable, though the story does throw a curve ball towards the end, as the race is coming to a conclusion. And as for the actual ending? Well, that particular ending would split the audience into two groups; those who loves it, and those who doesn't.There is a good amount of violence and mayhem to "Death Race: Inferno", and isn't that why the audience watch these particular movies? I believe it to be so. And the action, racing and violence does work out in a greater unity, providing good entertainment.The people hired for the various parts actually did good jobs with their given roles, and I must say that Luke Goss (playing Frankenstein) actually did a much better job than he did in the 2010 movie. And it was also nice to see other people in the cast revisit old roles.However, the broth is wearing thin on this franchise already, and just how much more can they possibly milk from this without it becoming more of a parody on itself than it has already become? Better to stop while you are ahead...This is a man's movie, all muscle, testosterone, cars, action and violence. The story is a no-brainer, so just sit back, strap yourself in and enjoy the ride.
View MoreI do not even know where to start.This can only be "generously" classified as a major debacle.I just don't know what to say................I began to watch this with my usual suspension of reality, but it was only 5 minutes into it that I realized that I needed to get drunk real quick if I was going to last for another 20 minutes or so.After 20 minutes I went into brain freeze and decided to keep it on for the background noise. I suffer from tinnitus.If you want to put aside some time then give me a call. I have better home movies then this piece of c _ _ p!Please do not see this travesty. If you do.....you were warned.
View MoreDeath Race 3: Inferno was directed by Roel Reine, the same director as Death Race 2. It is a sequel to the prequel but still a prequel to the original which is a remake of Death Race 2000 (a classic!) I enjoy them all! As a Death Race movie, it has all the ingredients: beautiful ladies, sweet cars, guns, explosions, twists. But this time, the race goes to the Kalahari Desert. Great move! It was refreshing to have a new environment. It provided the opportunity to mix things up, add some warlords here and there, maybe cliffs, other stuff! Watching Frankenstein and his signature car rip around always rocks.The same cast from the previous 2 entries in the series have also returned (the ones that make sense, anyway). Danny Trejo is always fun to watch. Tanit Pheonix is gorgeous and awesome. Luke Goss kicks butt, he rocks as Frankenstein. Ving Rhames is super cool. Dougray Scott plays Niles York, the baddie of the picture. He is one-dimensional, hammy, incredibly unlikable, couldn't wait for something to happen to him yet I enjoyed watching him do his thing. All the actors seemed to be having fun and it's contagious.Sure, there's some editing issues (ex: navigator battle), bad acting, poor dialogue, plot holes, but hey, I loved it! It was fun, fast, ridiculous, entertaining, over-the-top, and knowingly so. There were some neat surprises throughout the movie, definitely at the end. Won't spoil it but I'll just say it all kind of connects in an interesting way. The makers of DR3:I have an obvious passion for these movies. An effort was made here like with the previous ones and I respect that! If you like Death Race or any other ridiculous, over-the-top, kinda movies, I recommend this one.
