The Transporter star Jason Statham takes the wheel in director Paul W.S. Anderson's remake of the Roger Corman classic about a hyper-violent cross-country race that breaks all of the traditional rules of the road. The time is the not-so-distant future, and as America's prisons begin overflowing with violent criminals, the powers that be devise a grisly game that will free up space in the cells and entertain the masses at the same time. Jensen Ames (Statham) is a three-time speedway champion with a dark past. A survival expert and ex-con whose sordid history comes back to haunt him when he is framed for a murder he didn't commit, Ames is forced to choose between donning the metallic mask of a mythical racer known as Frankenstein or languishing away on Terminal Island -- America's most notorious penitentiary. Over the course of the next three days, this unlikely champion will get behind the wheel of a nightmare machine outfitted with machine guns, grenade launchers, and flamethrowers in a desperate attempt to outrun some of the most violent criminals ever imprisoned. Should Ames be the first to cross the checkered flag, he will win his freedom; should he come in second, however, death would be preferable to a grim future in a cramped concrete cell. Co-stars include Joan Allen, Ian McShane, Natalie Martinez, and Tyrese Gibson, who takes over the role of Machine Gun Joe, made famous by Sylvester Stallone in the original. ~ Jason Buchanan, RoviMovie Title : Death Race

Review For Movie Death Race
It's brainless fun, but while Anderson's brilliant staging of the flesh-ripping stunts surpasses Bartel's cheap thrills, this update lacks the sardonic wit and satirical bite of the Corman-produced version.Nigel Floyd-Time Out
Let Death Race serve as a warning, or maybe an inspiration, to any TV producer who says she'd kill for high ratings: Why not stage a pay-per-view car race in which prisoners compete to stay alive on the course?
Lisa Schwarzbaum-Entertainment Weekly
The combination of good actors and terrible dialogue might have allowed the film a chance at minor cult status, if it weren't for the frustratingly inept action sequences.
Peter Hartlaub-San Francisco Chronicle
Death Race is cartoonishly brutal and pleasantly disreputable.
Stephanie Zacharek-Salon.com
Statham's films never promise to be something they're not or offer something they don't provide. Death Race is not an exception.
James Berardinelli-ReelViews
Of all the Z-movies in the Roger Corman catalog, they had to remake Death Race 2000.
Roger Moore-Orlando Sentinel
Violent action remake races to a high body count.
James Rocchi-Common Sense Media
The most epically loaded triple-cheeseburger action film since "Con Air." Driving-team maven Spiro Razatos handles second-unit duty, and flings gas, sweat and oil at the screen with the hard-cornered glee of having real Hot Wheels with which to play.
Nick Rogers-Suite101.com
This is both a bad film and a bad influence, and on many levels. Still, for all of its brainlessness, it somehow manages a train-wreck hold on attention.
Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
Lean on substance, but bustling with excitement; Death Race is entertainment in its most primitive form.

Joseph Proimakis-Movies for the Masses
While the premise creates plenty of entertaining opportunities for violence and destruction, how much better could this have been as a true "cannonball run" coast-to-coast..?
Kevin A. Ranson-MovieCrypt.com
An orgasmic mix of on-road mayhem that plays at 1000 miles per hour! Marvel in some terrifically-choreographed stunt
Clint Morris-Moviehole
Director Paul W.S. Anderson really isn't known for Oscar contenders, but the guy understands over-the-top gratuitous violence better than most.
Kit Bowen-Hollywood.com
A must-see for petrolheads and cineastes alike.
Jim Schembri-The Age (Australia)
There's some fine action, but the film never gets within spitting distance of breaking any taboos or taste barriers, which, for a schlock spectacle, is like racing within speed limits.
Jason Di Rosso-MovieTime, ABC Radio National
While not being the most awful filmic experience available, it's certainly one of the dumbest.
Jarrod Walker-FILMINK (Australia)
Petrolheads and gorehounds, this backfiring blast of cinematic carbon monoxide is your film of the year.
Leigh Paatsch-Daily Telegraph (Australia)
It's all pretty senseless and senseless is how I felt at the end of it all, after being party to a sadistic and deadly race that relies on the killing of its participants for its entertainment.
Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile
Neither as bad as you fear it could be nor as good as you might hope.
James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk
Anderson finds a few interesting angles from which to cover things, but there's nothing really memorable or original to wow jaded action fans.
John Hazelton-Screen International
The main problem with the new film is that it tries to make the whole thing credible, whereas the original never tried to make any sense.
Jonathan W. Hickman-Entertainment Insiders
Basically, it's a videogame masquerading as a movie, but the action scenes are so loud and messily edited that they're tedious rather than tense. If it weren't so incoherent, it would be a classic.
Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall
Death Race is a travesty of the original film but it delivers enough explosions, violence and vroom-vroom action to ensure that it remains entertaining if you leave your brain in neutral.
