 Cool for a 1st grader August 31, 2007
2 out of 7 found this review helpful
I really dug Speed Racer when I was in 1st grade, it had the coolest car, Racer-X was mysterious, and Trixie was hot. Having seen it again years later as an adult, It was fun to watch, but I'm not sure I can sit through more than a couple of episodes. I gave it to my girlfriend's son who is 4 and he appreciates it far more than I do now. I look forward to the live action version by the Wachowski brothers. However, one critique after seeing a still of the movie car, the camber is totally off on the wheels for the Mach 5 to make it effective in the corners. I'm just saying, not even Michael Schumacher could win a race with that much postive camber.
The Best of the Speed Racer Releases May 13, 2007

I finally picked up the first of the volumes the other day. This is the best of all of them. I am still enjoying the on screen Mach 5 demonstrations. Way to much fun!
I can remember being a kid and watching this show in the morning before school. It's been so much fun to recapture the energy of this show on dvd.
The other following volumes are only ok. I mean they're good each on their own, but nowhere near as great as this first release of the set. The quality of the show went downhill as can be seen throughout the volumes subsequent releases.
It was my first taste of Japanimation; even at an early age. And it isn't going to be my last all these (30 +) years later.
Memories April 9, 2007
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
It's about memories! One of the reasons I enjoyed this DVD so much is because of childhood memories of running home from school to watch Speed Racer and a few other 70s classics. Cartoons have changed tremendously! So, the one thing that will make a difference other than quality (in which I thought the DVD was of good quaility), is your early memories. My children even watch it.

It takes you back to the good ol'days. I wish the picture was clearer - a little fuzzy.
