3.5? I guess most people just don't GET this movie


Torque is a complete blast, its absurd, unrealistic and clearly intentionally tongue in cheek. I think its quite obvious that this movie was meant to be humorous and absurd and not a serious auto-action movie and in my opinion, it was *beep* successful.
This movie made me laugh so much at the absurdity and the action sequences, editing and direction were pretty damned awesome.

The director said he was trying to make a cult movie.

He even went as far as telling slashfilm he despises films like the Fast and the Furious.

Because we know TMNT III: Turtles in Time is about McCarthyism

Yeah- I love this movie! Is it over the top, totally and completely unrealistic...SURE but who cares!? It's a great thrill ride that isn't bound by the constraints of reality. It's a great action flick. Too bad so few see it that way.

Torque is by no means The Godfather but it sure as hell is not as bad as it's made out to be. 3.9??? Really???

Unfortunately, it's 100% serious... it's nice that you were able to find humor in it, but it wasn't intentional.
