Eddie Griffin and Nathan Phillips put the pedal to the metal in stunt coordinator-turned-director Andy Cheng's supercharged auto thriller. As a serious collection of speed freaks gather to hit the str... read more read more...eets in hopes of winning 24 million dollars, every rule is broken and the law simply doesn't have enough horsepower to ensure that justice is served. With the speedometer maxed out and the past becoming nothing more than a fading image in the rearview mirror, these drivers will do whatever it takes to win the prize that promises to change their life forever. In addition to featuring a score (and cameo) by hip-hop icon Wyclef Jean, Redline was produced by real-estate developer-turned-producer Daniel Sadek -- who not only financed the 26-million-dollar film, but also donated his personal car collection to the production. Featured automobiles include Sadek's Lamborghini Murcielago, Enzo Ferrari, Ferrari F430, Ferrari Scaglietti Phantom, and two McLarens. In a bid to increase the realism of the driving scenes, one of Sadek's two 400,000-dollar Porsche Carrera GTs was set to be destroyed for the film. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

    Well...at least you can look at the cars.
  • October 16, 2007
    Chicks and cars, chick and cars.... two things that blokes love!

    But is that enough to warrant watching this movie? Just download it or spend a dollar at the video store, not worth 10 bucks for a movie ticket.

    But anyways, the cool thing about this car flick is of course...... read more the NIIIIICCCCCCCCEEEEEE collection of exotics... seriously they should be in the credits than the bad actors... though the lead girl is HAAWWT she hasnt got a career in the movies, and might be resigned to making movies like this, like all other bombshells.... but hey if she can drive like that in life, she can shift my gears anytime! XD

    just watch it for the obvious reasonsand get over it.... though the CAR action scenes are pretty cool, but the stunts reek of computer graphics.... direction poor, pretty much everything is lame except the car chases and races.

    Lambos, Ferrari's, Shelby's, Bugatti's, Merc's and anything worht more than 400 grand..... hey hey hey!!


    2 Stars for the cars.... and maybe a genrous half added for Ms Nadia, the hottie who can sing.


    Watch it and move on.... the next Fast and Furious is being shot, Vin and Paul returning, so hopefully that will be better!

    Sure there are plenty of hot women in Redline, but nothing turns me on more than wanton disregard of physics, script-writing ability, acting and quality in general.

    Ooooooh yeah.

    Coolest Movie This Year!!! ^_^
  • April 17, 2007
    The script needed help but the car chases....car races...exotic cars...exotic women....whoooooo...this is definitely a high in testosterone movie.
  • October 11, 2007
    This movie was kind of boring.
  • April 25, 2007
    A relentless barrage of moronic moments.
  • June 6, 2008
    Decent action/racing flick. Some not so good acting and fight choreography but still entertaining.
  • May 2, 2008
    Hmmmm...but, it has cars, though. Interesting.

    "Tremendously cool cars, very hot girls especially Nadia Bjorlin, some decent action scenes but nowhere close as good as the Fast & Furious movies."

It's not so much a film as a cheesy garage calendar scantily-clad, over-made up "cheap" women as hood-ornaments. Full Review

The whole thing is pretty stupid, but Angus Macfadyen is watchable as the villain. Full Review

An idiotic action thriller, vanity project and testosterone-filled guilty pleasure whose sole purpose is to show off a fleet of million-dollar Ferraris and Lamborghinis belonging to fledgling movie mo... Full Review

It's hard to say whether gleaming automobiles or women's bodies are given the more fetishlike treatment in this vanity production.

The cars in the film are treated with more respect than the women. Full Review

The movie Redline is all about surfaces, for young men with testosterone to burn.

John Anderson, Newsday

Redline isn't exactly a car wreck, mainly because it's far less exciting and you can, in fact, look away. Full Review

Jonathan Perry

Jonathan Perry, Boston Globe

Everything you'd expect it to be, and yet so much less: less character development, less believability, and most unforgivably, less escapist entertainment. Full Review

Although the movie's artistic merits are virtually nonexistent, Sadek does understand his audience, most of whom are unlikely to be acquainted yet with two key aspects of the film: driver's licenses a... Full Review

Do yourself a favor and stay home. Griffin's 21-second wrecking-the-Enzo video on YouTube is more exciting (and better directed, and better acted ...) than anything in Redline. Full Review
