Speed Demon is Not Good

Not that I expect The Departed with every film outing, but this isn't even Leonard Part 6. Heck, I even enjoy quite a few "bad" movies: the inexperience (or simple ineptitude) of the director, writer, or actors can lead to some entertaining moments of unintentional humor or unexpected brilliance.

Neither of which happen in Speed Demon. It's not the worst movie I've seen by a long stretch, but it's unexpectedly boring for a film about street racers using otherworldly powers to gain an edge. The actors were wooden, the cars were slow, and the action was practically nonexistent. The only bright spots were the Chevelle and Candace Moon. Sorry, David DeCoteau, that's all I can come up with.

So, if I didn't really like it, why did I build a model from it (especially when so many more deserving movie cars are out there)? Basically because I needed a testbed for a few ideas I had, plus I wanted to finally be able to add a Chevelle to my collection.
