Projet RPM

A professional American car thief goes to France to steal a prototype super car from an international car show for his oil baron/mobster boss - who sees the launch of this new alternative fuel vehicle as a major threat to his business.

Laughably cheap, unexciting, uninspiring caper not helped by poor casting, awful acting and a silly script.

the only plus points to this are the occasional nice car not forgetting the breathtaking scenery of the south of France. Its no surprise this film sat on the shelf for years without distribution.

One can only assume the likes of Famke Janssen and David Arquette quite desperately needed the money when they made this turkey.

this film is the worst one i have ever watched in my life ever and i mean ever.

from the minute i put it on it was crap i only watched ten minutes off it and had to turn it off i took it back and told them to take it off the shelf it should have not been allowed too even put on the shelf

the film should have been burnt

it said on the front fast and the furious verse gone in 60 seconds i don't think so it should not even been matched up to them two film it is not even in the same category

i have seen better school play that i have been too

I must warn you all, as a fellow member of the human race, to steer clear of this film...far clear. I rented this movie, and now I want those 90 minutes of my life back. However, I must say it felt far longer than that.

RPM was a disgrace of a film. It promotes the idea that oil is a perfectly good erotic lubricant, and numerous other monstrously ridiculous concepts. I write this comment not to insult the film, but to actually warn the public of this wretched beast of motion picture entertainment.

If you were to take Gone in Sixty Seconds, and remove anything that even remotely looks like a plot, good acting, and direction, you would be left with a movie, and I use the term very loosely, called R.P.M. And the strange thing is, this movie was made way back in 1997! So I guess you could say that Jerry Bruckheimer got the idea for ‘Sixty Seconds from R.P.M…..Naw. Starring David Arquette and Famke Janssen, this `movie' is set in the south of France where Arquette is hired to steal the prototype of a gasless car named R.P.M. (Deciding the name of the car must have taken a whole 2 minutes.). Arquette and Janssen soon find themselves out for the same thing, and their `chemistry' between each other is very hard to swallow at times, all the way up to the ‘secret' they share with us by the end of the movie. Everything about this movie is wrong. From the acting, and again I use that term loosely, to the unrealistic one billion dollar paycheck for the R.P.M. If there is to be any redeeming qualities of this entire movie, I must admit that Famke Janssen is looking as beautiful as usual.

It is this reviewers opinion to spare yourself the humiliation of actually paying money to rent this, and wait until it comes on regular t.v., not even HBO, and watch it in the privacy of your own home.

Simply awful. Bruce Willis was quoted as saying that every actor/actress needs a "Hudson Hawk" in their career. This was easily David Arquette's "Hudson Hawk". Dreadful story-line, very ordinary car chases, little drama, no suspense and no twist at the end.

The Best bit of the movie was the credits. The Worst bit was the 91 minutes before the credits.

Anyone interested in watching this movie take my advice, go for a 91 minute walk and save yourself the anguish of this movie.

(Can someone send me the Director's Address, I want to bill them for the hire charge of this movie).
