Garage run by small-time crook Yannick (Olek Krupa) who rips off his customers. Rachel's oddball neighbor Sean (Will Patton) likes lizards. Sean hangs with his pal, welder Johnny (John Turturro), who can't overcome his shyness to secure what he envisions as "the perfect relationship." However, a meeting with Rachel puts Johnny in a gentleman-caller mode and opens the doors to a restrained romance of sorts. Sean is curious, since there are no women in his life apart from his mother (Gemma Jones). Meanwhile, with Rachel's car eating up her savings, the trio decides to get revenge during a final showdown at the O.K. Garage. Shown at the 1998 L.A. Independent Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
Avoid [All Revved Up] at all costs, even if you've got to watch a three-hour Celine Dion concert or plunge nails into your thighs.

Steve Rhodes, Internet Reviews
The characters warm your heart even if the script doesn't exactly dazzle your brain.

I honestly have no idea how all of this is supposed to fit together.
