The amazing adrenalin race

IIPM Ranked No. 1 B-School In Global Exposre - Zee...

In 1975, “Death Race 2000” conjectured a world of cons engaged in a brutal race where they had to kill the others on the way to victory (well, the title is proof clear enough of the premise) in the year 2000. The reprise in 2008, starring Jason Statham. is pretty much the same idea, only the year is 2012 and economic disaster has the post industrial world festering with criminals so numerous that private corporations are running prisons. One such, The Terminal Island Prison, has a sadistic warden, Hennessey (played with a lot of bite by Joan Allen) who catches the newest convict Jensen Ames (Jason Statham; leaner and hungry for more action) and forces him to fill in the vacancy of Frankenstein, a driver killed in the last race. Begrudgingly, Statham takes the wheel in this mad race but once he does, he kicks some machine gun fitted car tail for sure! Statham is a born natural in roles behind the wheel (see him in “The Italian Job” and the “Transporter” series and you’ll know). It is a solid action movie that neither pretends nor desires to be anything else.

The unabashed bloodshed, the coolest cars you can imagine, witty repartees, guns and explosions, and of course hot babes – it’s a male audience’s fantasy come true. “Death Race” is a good watch for anyone who’s ever had road rage. At least you can fantasise about blowing every commuter away who dares cross your path. Complain, if you have to, about the lack of a storyline and acting, but if you were looking for those, what were you doing watching this movie in the first place?
