Speed Racer (2008)

After his older brother Rex Racer dies in a car crash, Speed Racer starts driving for the family business. After gaining attention in the racing world, he is approached by rivals Royalton Industries who suggest that the Racers sell out to Royalton and Speed can drive for them. When Speed refuses, Royalton sends his drivers after Speed in the next race.

The movie is bright and colorful, but that can't cover up for the boredom factor. It takes more than colors that pop to make a good movie. And John Goodman looks like he's right out of Super Mario Brothers which is really distracting.
