Movie Trailer: Death Race
At least you can't say they don't know they've made something big and stupid. Jason Statham has built a resume littered with some incredibly hollow action films. I bet every time his agent tells him about a new project Statham eagerly asks "does it read like it was written by a chimp? Yes? Great, I'm in!"

There's a part of me that looks at this and thinks this may be the best film ever made. I don't let that part of me out much. My life is easier that way.






Screenwriter: Paul W. S. Anderson (Resident Evil: Extinction)

OK, so it's The Running Man for the generation that grew up playing Carmaggedon, with allusions to Stratham's multiple driving movies & a bit of Escape from New York thrown in for good measure (see the bridge scene). Looks like a turkey, 'cuz the slick style factor is completely gone in this punk/industrial wasteland.

Absolutely, they don't more derivative than this.
