Dirt

From the minute this starts, you know where it'll go (no pun intended) and where it'll end. It's predictable like that. You can't blame the characters being surprised by the obvious "twists" or story turns. The actors are decent and as another reviewer wrote: It's a family movie with a positive message. Something that people need in general.

I do not quite agree with his 10/10 rating, but that is me. I reckon he was very joyful watching him and I wouldn't blame anyone for that. Actually good for that reviewer or anyone else who'll enjoy this, maybe even due to the fact that either they are not as cynical or have watched as many movies as I have. For others this will seem like time wasted, even though it isn't really a bad movie

It's refreshing to see a movie with a deep emotional story. This movie has a easy to follow story line that deals with currrent issues while giving you a sense of hope that there are good people out there. Great movie for most ages. Well written and well directed. Great cast. The movie has a nice flow to it with a some funny scenes sprinkled throughout the movie. Highly recommend it!!!!

I'll attempt to put aside what I know about the politics and positions of Forrest Lucas the executive producer of this film (as the viewers can look that up for themselves) and try and rate the movie on its own merits.

I picked this DVD up at Redbox, not knowing anything about it. and it's not a bad B-movie quality endeavor. Kevin Dillon stars as Rick Radden, an ex-champion off-road racer and who now owns his own truck racing team. DeRon Horton co-stars as Dez Truss, s former car thief, who's now trying to go straight and is given a second chance by Rick to work with his team.

They're both quite believable in their roles, as are many in the supporting cast. The plot elements are quite predictable and formulaic on the whole, but an air of tension is reasonably maintained in the off-road racing scenes and other areas, and there's an eventual feel-good aspect to it all.

Overall, aside from some of the blatant commercial plugs, I felt the film was reasonably well presented and better than I expected.

Might be an old cliche, but today it's good to watch a movie like this. Young black teen gets an opportunity to get out of the car stealing business and makes good with the help of a dirt track race truck owner and his team. Good race scenes very realistic.

Was just thinking this was going to be another loud car movie but was very pleasantly surprised by the story, variety of characters - most with a likeable personality and the whole film in general. Uplifting with enough action and some great racing footage. Well worth a watch..
