I am not into cars, but I presume those who are fanatics might get more out of this film than I did. Gone in Sixty Seconds barely works. There are plenty of car chases, but they are filmed in such a manner that it is hard to tell what's going on. The camera swerves back and forth and the scene drowns into a blur.

Kip's boss forces the legendary Menphis to come out of retirement and deliver the fifty cars in 72 hours, or his brother will end up fossilized in a crushed car cube. Memphis agrees to the deal and gathers some of his old buddies to pull of the heist. It is decided that all fifty cars will be stolen in one night, whilst using the first two for scouting locations.

His Memphis flashes moments that are so interesting, that it's joltingly disappointing to see him waste away for most of the time in autopilot with minimum enthusiasm that is clearly seen through the boring droll of his voice. Angelina Jolie as his love interest is far better. She is under used, but when on screen she lights in on fire with that sultry face that's impossible to take your eyes off.
