Product Description
Bluray Disc

Kip Raines (Giovanni Ribisi) is a cocky young car thief working with a crew to steal 50 cars for a very bad man whose nickname is "The Carpenter." Being young and cocky, Kip messes up, so it's up to his big brother, Randall "Memphis" Raines (Nicolas Cage), to come out of car thief retirement and save him. With a cast that includes Robert Duvall, Angelina Jolie, Delroy Lindo, Cage, and Ribisi, it would be easy to say this story wastes all their talents--which it does, but that's not the point. This is a Jerry Bruckheimer film. A good story and complex characters would only get in the way of the action scenes and slow the movie down. No, Gone in 60 Seconds (based on the cult 1974 film of the same name) is not about the stars as much as it's about cars. Fast cars. Rare cars. Wrecked cars. All cars. Too bad director Dominic Sena (Kalifornia) doesn't come across as more of a gearhead; he seems less interested in fast cars than fast cuts. But is this movie fun? Absolutely, and it's fun because it's so stupid. With pointless car chases and hackneyed dialogue in one of the most predictable plots of the year, Gone in 60 Seconds is a comic film that's not quite a parody of itself, but darn close. --Andy Spletzer

Never another chase scene like this. Filmed where I grew up. I enjoyed JC Agajanian's interview.
Product was in excellent condition and arrived on time.

The movie took a little longer than I was usual than expecting. I think it came 2 weeks after I ordered it (usually they come the same week). Movie is in better condition than what it said online.
 Watchable, fun, plenty of digital candy, but predictable and lacks staying power April 24, 2009
Alan Holyoak (In the shadow of the Tetons)
First of all, I know that there are people out there that think that this movie is the absolute greatest. It does appeal to many of the senses, but in my opinion, it lacks the makings of a classic movie. It, however, may qualify as a sort of cult classic, but not a movie classic.
The acting is clearly back-seated to many beautiful cars, hip music, and, surprisingly, big-name actors (e.g., Cage, Jolie, Duvall). I found the storyline to be quite predictable, as was the outcome.
You know the drill...there is an evil bad guy and developments endanger a family member of a good bad guy, thus forcing the good bad guy to bow to the evil bad guy far enough to try to save the other family member. There is also a street-wise cop that has a history with the good bad guy, but their interactions exist primarily to provide a situation for a high speed chase that is included in the movie mainly to total as many cars of as many innocent drivers as possible.
Don't get me wrong...this kind of action movie is amazing...it's got plenty of, well, ACTION. If that's what you are after, "Gone in 60 Seconds" will give it to you.
If you are, however, looking for character development, a story you could watch again and again, and more that digital candy, then this movie is probably not for you.
For those reasons I give this movie 3 stars. You'll probably enjoy watching it, but when you're done there's, alas, not much reason to watch it again.
3 stars...fun action, but it's quite predictable and then forgetable.
