Speed Ratings & Reviews
- Ray Hopkin26 november 2024Such an exquisite and perfect action movie, with unbelievable chemistry between Reeves and Bullock, and a great deranged performance from Hopper. Considering it's only 3 major set pieces, elevator, bus, train, it shows just how good DeBont is in crafting a spectacular and exciting movie.
- ርልዪረ27 januari 2025🚌 They really do not make films like this any more. A defining action film from the 1990's that is so fast, exciting and entertaining from the opening credits to the end. As Keanu Reeves cop tries to save passengers on a bus that has been rigged to explode if the speed of the bus drops below 50mph, this film goes from one brilliant set piece to another, and is directed wonderfully well by Jan Debont. The dialogue is cool and snappy, their is good humour amongst the thrills, a great score, and really good performances from Jeff Daniels, Sandra Bullock, Dennis Hopper as the crazed villian, and of course Reeves, and this is my favourite performance from him. It does not matter how many times you watch this film, just leave your brain at the door for a couple of hours, sit back, turn your sound system up, and enjoy.
- Cole11 juni 2025Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves masterclass
- Ddoughnut20 januari 2026This movie had a lot of KABOOMS, so that was cool
- turbob2423 maart 2026The perfect action movie
- CmdrJorgs9 januari 2026If you are a bad guy and need to choose who to pick a fight with, Jeff Daniels is probably a much better option than Keanu Reeves.
- afore197 december 2025Top 15 action movie all time.
- Streetter17 augustus 2025Lightning In A Bottle!
- Kwestor13 oktober 2025The perfect action movie from start to finish. so much more than Die Hard on a bus, this movie solidifies Keanu as an action movie star ⭐️
- tellum21 augustus 2025Well executed action movie with a simple premise, but is well written enough that it doesn’t get boring or repetitive.
- PrimeViews16 augustus 2025So, the other day I decided to rewatch Speed for the first time in quite a long while actually. I'm usually not a big fan of most "classics" (which I define as pre-2000 movies) but this one holds up really well. The pacing is surprisingly good for a movie of its time, most older films are really slow in terms of pacing, but Speed manages the pacing almost perfectly. It never feels boring, right from the get go they throw in an intense sequence, and the intensity is pretty continuous up until the very end. Some people might be against that, since that means the story is pretty simplistic as a result, but I think it works well for this kind of film. Characters are likable, and the villain was actually pretty solid and well portrayed by Denis Hopper. I personally don't have a problem with the third act, some people say it was tagged on and the movie should've ended earlier, but I think that would've been kind of abrupt, and the relationship between the two leads would have felt rushed. I think having this sort of "final showdown" with the villain is appropriate and pretty satisfying. I overall don't really have any meaningful issues with the movie, it's really well paced, with good action, characters, villain, and a solid enough story. The only real nitpick I can come up with is the final line of Sandra Bullock's character. I thought the entire thing with "relationships that stem from intense circumstances don't last" should've been dropped entirely, but it's not a major issue. The only reason I dont give this 5/5 stars is because, even if the movie doesn't have any major issues, I can't quite say I like it more than all the movies I've rated as 4.5/5 stars. Hence why it earns that rating. It's still a blast and an awesome movie that's definitely worth watching.
