Review of Speed

Speed (1994)
7/10
A classic action film with stnadout bad dialogue
17 February 2024
Ahhh Speed. Always referenced, copied, but never bettered. There's a lot good about this film. Keane Reeves is a damn badass, great cop and great hero. I love Keanu Reeves acting, he does what he does very well.

The films action scenes are top, the setting is u ique and although ridiculous is always taken seriously and believable in its own way. The action scene to start the film. Is great, the one to end it less so. Sandra Bullock is on peak form and so is the supporting cast, and a very evil Dennis Hopper.

The bad - the last action scene wasn't needed. And the dialogue is so bad. The ending of the film, the last couple of lines are so bad, you have to either think the writers ran out of ideas, they genuinely were trying to be funny, or... something more subversive. Saving that it's a fun couple of hours.
