“When sitting down to watch a movie like Torque my expectations are down so low that they almost touch the earthu0026#39;s core. Maybe thatu0026#39;s also why i actually found this movie to be mildly entertaining? The closest movie references here seemed to be the u0026quot;Fast and the furiousu0026quot;-movies, at least before the movie started. But while the setting is not unlike those movies (criminal gangs racing each other in custom vehicles) there was still a big difference in how the movies played out. First of all i like the style of u0026quot;Torqueu0026quot; a lot better. Granted, the over-the-top racing sequences with quite a lot of CGI tucked in to create the illusion of speed are too much many times. But still, there is a certain style and feeling here that actually makes it work pretty well.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe beginning of the movie almost made me give up though. The u0026quot;herou0026quot; arrives at a biker meet where women with more silicone than natural tissue greet him and it almost becomes too much to bear. But when the obligatory naked skin passes by the action picks up, and so does the entertainment. Donu0026#39;t be mistaken, this movie is a hopelessly juvenile testosterone-fest. But in the genre itu0026#39;s not too bad.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo if you like fast bikes and fast paced racing this might just be your choice for the Friday night entertainment. Easily digested, easily forgotten, but a fun ride while it lasts. I rate this 5/10.”
