Rating:  - Great Movie
Gone in 60 Seconds
Usually I am not the type of guy that loves car movies, but I love this movie. The car action is good for the most part. The scenes that are meant to garner emotion do it well. The music on this movie is perfectly done. This movie was just brilliantly put together.
Kip Raines and his crew go on a boost (high profile car theft) for 50 cars and fail miserably. Kip's old brother, Memphis Raines, is contacted about Kip's failure. Memphis soon learns that they are going to kill Kip if Memphis can't get the cars in 3 days. So on the first day he assembles a small crew of men, and a woman, to help him steal 50 cars. On the second day they find out where all the cars are. On the third and final night they are going to steal all 50 cars. You are on the edge of your seat all the time. Memphis is unsure if they are even going to make it. That is different then most movies where they are trying to be positive.
The entire time this is going on, there is a timer that keeps appearing at the bottom of the screen. It is a count down until they are out of time. Kip is played to perfection with a combination of being scared, but still wanting to help. There are so many different stories going on in this movie, and it works very well. You see why Memphis left his brother, which is really tear jerking.
One gripe I have with the entire movie is a ridiculous jump sequence. The entire movie looks fairly realistic, but near the end of the movie they added an extremely fake looking jump sequence. All the events leading up to that moment are great, but the jump is just too fake. That is the only thing that knocks this down to four stars.
Rating:  - Great Movie!!!
This movie is great just to see the cars and the chase. I won't even compair this movie to the original because there is no compairison.
Rating:  - Gone in 60 Seconds
I liked the movie. However I felt duped as it is not in 1080P like it says. It has black bars at the top and bottom of my screen its more like 1920 X 800 resolution.

Rating: - NEVER DID LIKE IT.
Sorry to all those die hard fans, but I never did like this movie. It's just plain BORING for about 7/8ths of the movie. All planning, planning, planning. Then the last 1/8th is a great chase scene. I bought this movie for the chase scenes. I would recommend RedLine as a great alternative to anyone wanting to see hot cars being raced around. You'll even get to see a Ferrari Enzo in RedLine! Gone in 60 Seconds was just a teaser. The commercials hooked you, just as they hooked me. Then you're sitting there asking "Where are all the cool cars?". There's really only one great scene at the end with the car they call Eleanor. And that scene alone was not worth the price of admission nor is it worth the cost of the DVD.
