      Audience Member If you like car racing or just cars in general you'll love this movie. It explains the design and building of open wheeled race cars and the testing of these cars. Excellent movie for it's type, and really looks good on a large screen. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Good documentary, great sound effects! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member 2: Pretty standard IMAX film, but it would be amazing in OMNIMAX, as all films made in this style are. Even on my flat home theater screen the sense of speed and movement is palpable and quite exhilarating though. The problem is that there is essentially no compelling narrative and I'm not terribly interested in Formula One racing. The only reason to see it is really because of the unusual angles from which we are able to get a taste of what driving on these cars might be like. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Kind of an overly-simplified version of open-wheel racing... totally worth it if only to see Mario blasting through town in the Dean Van Lines Special roadster... Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member must see on a HDTV projector- shot in IMAX it puts you in the drivers seat of a formula one race car. The last scene is one of the best 'driving' scenes shots- i can remember Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member nice documental , even if you don't like the cars , it was very good made , film in Imax 75mm , classic!!! Nice music very adock with the documentary , and it was so well film that you really feel that you are inside the cars. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Ross Anthony Hollywood Report Card Though elements of that push-to-the-limits speed appear in this film, "Super Speedway" is much more of a documentary than a ride. But it's a good one. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 25, 2001 Full Review Read all reviews
