Torque (film)

The Television & Movie Wiki: for TV, celebrities, and movies.

Torque is an 2004 action movie. Martin Henderson, Ice Cube, Jaime Pressly, Matt Schulze and Monet Mazur starred in the film. The movie featured many impossible motorcycle action sequences - motorcycles being used like swords, wheelies at 150+ mph, and a crash at over 200 mph from which the hero walks away - and highly extravagant visual effects. In one scene the camera follows a motorcycle going perhaps 200 mph and then 'goes through' a truck and out the other side. In another scene, the camera slowly zooms in on a motorcycle traveling down a freeway, but the camera goes inside of two cars while doing so, long enough so that you can hear the music playing in the cars. It was often called "The Fast and the Furious on Motorcycles" referring to the use of many of the same thematic elements between the two films.

The complete lack of reality in this movie makes it worthless to watch unless you are stuck on a desert island and are being tortured with a solar powered DVD player.
