If you want to watch a movie about jerks doing illegal things, this is the movie for you. Otherwise, not so much.

| Description: | Tobey (Aaron Paul) is a mechanic/street racer with an ongoing grudge against Dino (Dominic Cooper) who stole his girlfriend. Dino shows up one day with an offer — Tobey restores a Shelby Mustang and in return gets a quarter of the selling price. The car is bought by a wealthy dude who is represented by Julia (Imogen Poots). Dino challenges Tobey and his friend Pete to a race during the course of which Dino bumps Pete's car. He crashes and dies. Tobey is blamed and sent to prison for two years. When he gets out, he borrows the Mustang. Julia comes along to watch over it. They head to California to race against Dino. On the way, they are chased by cops and by Dino's hit men. In the end, Tobey wins the race and the girl. |
