A lot has changed in the biker-movie genre since Hell's Angels on Wheels, and Torque may be the new benchmark of feverish chopper action. Martin Henderson plays Cary, a speed king and relatively civilized outlaw with a knack for annoying everyone, including drug smugglers, the FBI, an ex-girlfriend, and, worst of all, biker gang leader Trey (Ice Cube), who thinks Cary killed his brother. On the run from everyone, Cary survives by playing all sides against one another. But the story is less important than the frantic, over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek action surrounding it. The Fast and the Furious producer Neal H. Moritz is responsible for this crazy, violent, yet appealingly sardonic cowboys-on-wheels piece. --Tom Keogh

 Mountain Dew or Pepsi???? August 24, 2008
So in the big climatic scene, we are treated to shameless advertising for Mountain Dew and Pepsi. WOW. How lame can a movie get? If Pepsi really wanted to add to its sales, they should have put up billboards for Coke, because this movie did nothing to encourage me to be associated with any products protrayed in it. This was one baaaad file. The stunts were so weak that they looked like they were rejected from the video game. The back flip off one bike to land on another? lol. The martial arts while riding at 200 miles an hour? hahaha. The plot? Can't tell you. I couldn't make heads or tails out of the sorry mess of a plot except when the hero pulled the misunderstood bad guy off the tracks before the train got there. How telegraphed was that? How original! I guess if you're 14 years old or younger this might be kind of a cool movie, but anyone with more than a tenth grade education has got to find this one mind numbing. I suggest you save yourself the experience of destroying brain cells you might need in the future and skip this one. My head still hurts.

well,
+ for the visuals
+ for the actors
+ for a very sexy Jamie Pressely
- for the over the top stunts
- for the very visible change from road bikes to motorcross bikes made to look like road bikes doing the offroad stuff
- for all the fake CGI bike fighting

yes this is not the best movie ever made but it is fun for me and my girlfriends to sit and eat popcorn, hoot at the acting and oogle cute guys. Our latest crush is Will Yun Lee and the scene of him barely covered by a sheet is worth sitting through the rest of the movie. Ladies check him out!!
An action-filled dialogue-deficient movie March 13, 2007

I realize that this is one of those man movies that was never meant to make any sense and whose target demographic is fourteen-year-old boys. However, my canary in the coal mine in these situations is my husband. If he finds one of these films unwatchable, then it truly is bad, and not just so bad it is good. This was the case with "Torque". I tried to appreciate the stunts and the occasional humor that did work such as the truck from "Duel" still chasing Dennis Weaver after all these years, but it just can't compensate for a lame plot and dialogue that sounds like it was written by the reincarnation of Ed Wood. I think a somewhat rearranged quote from "Billy Madison", another silly man's movie that I actually enjoy if I'm in the mood for it, is most appropriate at this point: "At no point in your rambling, incoherent (movie) were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having (watched) it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
