Episode 14 - Need For Speed
from In The Queue - Film Conversations with Andrew and Phil Hosted by Andrew and Phil
Yo, Aaron Paul is starring in a movie now...bitch. Sorry to open the post blue, but I thought it would be instantly recognizable to "Breaking Bad" fans. That's right, Jesse Pinkman is the new Steve McQueen! Or that's what the filmmakers behind "Need For Speed" would have you believe. Paul is Toby, a mechanic who is also a steely-eyed street racer. The 'plot' of this film concerns a cross country race between Toby and his arch-nemesis, Dino, whom Toby holds responsible for the death of a dear friend. The star of this film are the car crashes, which are pretty cool. No CGI was used for any of these stunt scenes, which Phil and Andrew both admire. But sadly, the car-flipping and mid-air pirouettes are not enough to sustain a two hour and fifteen minute running time. Phil and Andrew unite in their lambasting of "Need For Speed." Sorry, Jesse Pinkman fans, you won't find anything to cook with here.
