Mini-review: Death Race

Modern remake of fun Corman classic which has more than a few nods to Mad Max. It's adequate, but lacks the depth of world building and humour which would have made this truly worthwhile.

 I did like the video game like approach to powering up the cars weapons.  As is normal for these kinds of films, the action scenes are edited to near incoherence in an attempt to inject additional energy.

Sadly, the copy I bought came with two straight to video sequels featuring almost none of the original characters.
