I don't see anyone else having portrayed any of these characters any better than the cast that was hired to do so. Also, having such an incredible cast makes it all the more intriguing. For it being a movie, it was nice to see something so different as far as the approach to making it go. That aside, as far as it being a movie and a work of art, I would give this movie high marks in both categories. I'm now intrigued to go back and check out some episodes of Speed Racer. I don't believe anyone who considers themselves truly knowledgeable about Tatsuo Yoshida's work can say that this was not represented well on the big screen. Although, this is still a different type of situation where one who was a big fan of the shows might be seriously critical of every little detail of the turned movie. I must admit that I know, or knew rather, very little about the story or history of Speed Racer- and his TV series - and maybe that is why I enjoyed this movie so much.
