      Successful in that it's actually a good anime adaption that stays 100% true to the source material. There's plenty of shitty movies that have made tons of money. Critics tanked it because they where butthurt, nothing more.

        that's not what successful means. You can claim it's faithful if you want

            Movies are made to make money, so the only standard of success is if it made money or not.

        Good adaptations don’t just mimic the source material. They make appropriate adjustments to fit their media type.

    While it wasn't a commercial success it's one of the better anime to live action movies around. Under appreciated Christina ricci

      Adaptations are for everyone BUT the anime fans. It's about seeing something a group of people like and trying to market it to the widest audience possible.

      It's made to try to appeal to a wider audience, but you're right that weebs only like anime because it's animated. I've never met a weeb who likes live-action Japanese movies from their golden age (i.e. the movies that inspired the anime they like).

    No anime adaptation is good, its nostalgia warping your mind. Zoomers are starting to be nostalgic for the fricking DragonBall movie now of all things. In about 10 years this same exact thread will be made with Netflix Bebop guaranteed.

    Even though the Wachowskis we're losing their minds by the time they were making Speed Racer, enough other talent was around to help and it shows.

    It really was a great family oriented film. Family, love interest, drama(his brother), suspense of plot/winning, and overcoming all adversity to win in the end.

    I don't think there's a single thing I'd change to the movie, maybe the bits with the younger brother and monkey (mostly the *record scratch* cooties warning at the end of the movie), but again, this movie was aiming for age 6 to 60 family demographics.

    As gay as it sounds, I want this movie to be remastered in 4K

    Yes I know I'll be buying it again but 4K would be worth it for how colorful this film was
    Also, anyone know if it was shot on film or early 2K digital?

          Because it was "le too colorful" and the effects where "le overwhelming" aka an anime. Also it had an all white cast and promoted nuclear family values which is "le toxic"
