On Day 2 of the race Goss is badly burned & comes back on Day 3 in a mask & dubbed 'Frankenstein'. (Yea right!) Lots of CGI makes parts of it come off as a modern day Saturday morning cartoon. They come up with the idea of a 'Death Race' inside the prison compound where the prisoners are allowed to have access to & to use heavy weapons to kills the competition. Of course it goes bad, he shoots and kills a cop, & goes to a privately controlled prison that promotes televised violence in the prison in order to make money. Synopsis: Goss likes & respects his mafia boss & agrees to do a poorly planned bank heist that he does not believe in. Gross looks the part & does a good job in his role but the rest, for the better part, fall short of acting the part. They spend at least a third of the movie developing relationships, situations that lead up to the race, etc. Preposterous plot plays out okay but the development phase is way too long. This movie is exactly what anyone should have expected when they ordered it & it is a solid middle of the road five star flick.
