Ice Cube, Martin Henderson, Monet Mazur

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 re...( read more  read more... )latively 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

    Everyone has a guilty pleasure movie they enjoy. THIS is one of those for me. It's bad. Oh, WOW, is it bad. But that's why I enjoy it so much. Bad cheesy acting, insane action, and hot chicks battling it out ninja-style while riding motorcycles. What's not to love?!?

    A cool MTV style movie about biker gangs. A bit like Fast and Furious but on 2 wheels instead. It has a cool, young cast, thumping soundtrack and some good chase scenes. Slightly over do the SFX in some scenes getting way beyond reality but overall an enjoyable action film.

    i kinda liked this one...yeah the story characters and over vibe of the movie feels very "cookie cutter" and uninspired...but the cinematography and camera work is very entertaining...if i ever watch this movie...its for that reason alone

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

Produces little in the way of rotation, torsion or anything else that could be roughly diagrammed as excitement. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

The film is better than it might have been, and better than it had to be. Take it on its own terms, and you might find it interesting.

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

Amazingly enough, this two-wheeled spinoff of The Fast and the Furious has dumbed down the franchise. full review
