The Wachowski sisters’ adaptation of the Japanese cult-classic cartoon became the first film shot entirely with green-screen technology, for better or worse. Emile Hirsch plays the title boy driver, battling the forces of corporate greed as he battles for first place amid a dizzying abundance of candy-apple colors and endless yawing maneuvers, courtesy weightless digital physics. Love it or hate it, there’s nothing else like it. -Lee Gardner
2008 Lana Wachowski, Lilly Wachowski 2.35:1 Color DCP 135 min.
