Yesterday, I decided to watch one of my pending list of "movies to watch"-- DEATH RACE. According to my brothers, the movie was "the best!" I doubt it at first not until I have finally watched it.Death Race is a 2008 action film written and directed by Paul W.S. Anderson. The film is a remake of the 1975 film Death Race 2000, based on lb Melchior's short story "The Racer", and stars Jason Statham in the lead role. The remake had been in development since 2002, though production was delayed by disapproval of early screenplays then placed in turnarond following a dispute between Paramount pictures and the producer duo Tom Cruise and Paula Wagner. Death Race was acquired by Universal Studios, and Anderson re-joined the project to write and direct. Filming began in Montreal in August 2007, and the completed project was released on August 22, 2008.
The movie tells about an ex-con Jensen Ames (Stathman) who is forced by the warden of a notorious prison(Allen) to compete in our post-industrial world's most popular sport: a car race in which inmates must brutalize and kill one another on the road to victory.
Death Race is THE movie. I felt like I was watching a playstation game. All I needed was a joystick.
