Great car stunts and high speed street racing with a stunning array of muscle cars and super cars mostly done in real time are the reasons for the existence of Scott Waugh’s Need for Speed. It certainly isn’t the infant pabulum that passes itself off as a narrative through-line which is as insulting and ridiculous as it’s possible to be. Fine actors are treading water in this mindless action fluff, but those stunts are something to see, and the film’s outstanding sound design does make the viewer feel as if he’s right in the midst of one of these racing demon cars.
