An F1 racer at heart, Daniel regularly drives his fares at 135mph through 30mph zones, and boasts that they never vomit while inside his cab...only once they exit. He doesn't drive a small yellow go-cart either, at the flip of a switch his car can transform from street-legal to street-menace: hidden spoilers emerge, the wheels move out, and the steering wheel gets replaced.

Caught by the police for one of his trademark speed infractions, Daniel agrees to help Emilien, a loser inspector on the track of German bank robbers, so he doesn't lose his license and his job.

What follows is a film that is surprisingly engaging, funny, and exciting. The action sequences are adeptly filmed and paced, the comedic scenes are well done and rarely sappy, and the storyline--though admittedly thin--is always taken care of and progresses nicely throughout the film. This is easily one of the top action-comedy films we've ever carried, and offers an incredibly good time.      Notes Korean Version

/ Though this DVD is anamorphic and of extremely high quality, a small portion of one scene is cut out. The part that's missing is when Daniel's girlfriend is shown in bed very briefly without clothes. We believe this scene to be edited by only a few seconds.
