After bashing all those movies that raped our childhood memories, I want to talk about one that, IMHO, had a very good approach.
Usually, when Hollywood adapts anything that's remotely childish, they try to make it more adult, more serious, darker, etc. They even want to translate the cartoon is "to the real world". So this movie was in serious danger of becoming Fast and Furious with a different name.

Problem, officer? |
Luckily, the Wachowski brothers opted to leave it as it is: over the top, colourful, wacky and asian. They even kept the monkey! To me, this was a great choice.
Another great thing about it was the cast. It feels just right.

Speed is a little effeminate, just like the cartoon! |
Yes, it may not be the best film ever made, it may even be so-so, but I celebrate the approach.
Rating: 6/10
Ya it gets a little over done when they make it more kid oriented. I'm all for terminator 10 tho
