Need for Speed (3D) movie review Director- Scott Waugh Starring- Aaron Paul, Dominic Cooper, Imogen Poots

Need for speed is a $66 million Hollywood movie based on need for speed series of video games by Electronic Arts. The theme is set on cross country racing to avenge the death of a friend. This movie features famous American actor Aaron Paul Sturtevant of “Breaking Bad” series playing the role of Toby Marshall, a former race car driver who now earns his living by modifying and tuning performance cars along with his friends. But this doesn’t fetch him much and is on the verge of going broke. His desperate need of money lands him on accepting an offer made by a wealthy ex-NASCAr driver Dino Brewster played by British actor Dominic Cooper.

Things go out of control when Dino challenges Toby and his friend Little Pete for a race. During the race, Dino tags Little Pete’s car n Little Pete dies with Dino disappeared from the scene. Toby is framed for man slaughtering his friend and is sent to jail. Two years of spending in jail, Toby is set free on parole, but now Toby is all set take revenge from Dino for all his loss. Toby ties up with Julia Maddon played by Imogen Poots and gets hold of Shelby Mustang as his ride. In order to defeat Dino they need to reach San Francisco in two days. But this ain’t easy as Dino puts up a price for whosoever stops Toby from reaching San Francisco and entering the race. Adding more to the problem police and racers cause an interstate chase with Toby and Julia. With all the odds against Toby the story revolves around cars n races with huge power beneath their hoods and rumbling sound of engine. This movie will surely be acclaimed by Aaron Paul fans and those who craze for street racing. 132 minutes of movie could have gone better had the story been a little more grasping. It’s full of action but misses a proper story line and the plots being too predictive. Need for Speed is running in theaters worldwide but reviews received are very poor.

Summarizing the review, Need for Speed does ring a bell in every young mind and it does live upto the expectation with all the racing and cross country chases but after a while it becomes monotonous and is not able to keep its viewers engrossed. For those who are a fan of Need for Speed video game series, this movie is a must watch for you guys..
