Torque - The Movie

[Hillbilly]

Anyone seen it? My flatmate got it out on DVD. It's produced by the same guys who made XXX and The Fast and The Furious.

Got some amazing stunt riding in it too! The best part was the Aprilia RSV 1000 being chased by the Triumph Daytona 955i. (You could tell what they were courtesy of the multitude of closeups of the bike graphics, and the "gangland" characters wearing matching branded race leathers) Anyway, they get to jump these two superbikes onto a moving passenger train that has aluminium skinned carriages, racing across the roofs jumping from carriage to carriage.

Then there's the "carbon fibre" bike that's "powered by a helicopter engine" and "goes from 0-200km/hr in 10 seconds".

I'm not quite sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but that bike does actually exist. Its the Y2K made by an outfit in the states. Comes with a 400km/h guarrantee- no one has claimed the money back!! Jay Leno has one, and I believe theres a couple of threads on it round here somewhere

PS I quite liked the movie- of course its not real life, what'd be the point of hollywooding it up then? You dont go to the flicks to watch some guys boring life story do ya now?

The only part of that movie thats any good is where Martin Henderson embarrasses those clowns racing their cars. The rest of the movie was a load of crap.

The blond chick was hot.

The some of the riding scenes through the winding desert roads were cool.

Mostly I just liked the blond chick.

[carver]

that movie was so full of shit, that dude that directed that needs to get a physics degree.
I mean going down crowded streets at 200+, swerving around vehicles...
how about the fight scene with those 2 girls on their bikes..

I only got this far twice then had to go for a ride.

I like the bit with the geeky harley rider too. That was funny.

That is one bull shit movie, the only part i liked was the begining when their riding through the hills, then the crap flows thick and fast!

[willy_01]

yep i agree - it was really shocking its worse than Fastest and Furious’s’est run of movie's - honest!

[Street Gerbil]

Hmmmm... Not a bad movie (assuming you have enough beer).

[Buster]

Tragic movie but good for a laugh. It would have been better if the blonde chick took her top off.

[Deano]

The duelling bikes was just a little toooo much.

[Bend-it]

Hey, it's hollywood... best taken with a barrel of salt... great entertinment though!! It's part of what got me on bikes!

Mostly the car scene and canyon scenes at teh start though...

I believe the bike exists, it's just the way thet were talking about it. What got to me was the animated right angle turn the "hero" did. Looked like something out of Batman. The movie was entertaining in it's own right, but I expected it to be better especially after the opening chase scene.
