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).

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.

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 is a funny movie starring David Arquette and Famke Janssen about stealing cars. They are not just trying to steal any car though. Their main objective is to obtain a car called the RPM that is supposed to be a car that runs without fuel. More than that I think it is simply to be about the antics that take place.
This is one of those movies that isn't supposed to be picked apart and taken seriously. It has bad acting, effects, direction, etc. on purpose. It is made to be funny. Has anyone ever seen a movie from the decade called the 80's. By the way, this wasn't an inspiration for "Gone in 60 seconds". Gone in 60 seconds was a remake of the film Gone in 60 seconds (1970 i believe). That is also a film that is so bad that it is fun to watch.

"R.P.M.", a silly saga with David Arquette as an international car thief, can't manage to get itself out of park. From casting to acting to simple props and stunts and everything in between, "R.P.M." is a loser. The only good thing in this film is Emmanuelle Seigner who seems awkwardly out of place and in need of a good script.
