John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: Movies like this are best enjoyed with your mind completely on autopilot. Read more
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune: A movie made by people who seem to have chuckled up their sleeves as they shot the picture and expect to laugh all the way to the bank afterwards. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: This is a movie that knows you know it's dumb, and that's enough to make the whole thing worth tolerating. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: Torque is a terrific action picture, fast-moving, studded with great stunts and smart enough not to take itself too seriously. Read more
Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post: For all the fast cuts, the furious vibes, the faux sexiness, Torque is canned and mighty flat. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: A guzzle of yahoo-Mountain Dew empty-calorie satisfaction. Read more
Matt Weitz, Dallas Morning News: Welcome to the last frontier in computer-generated effects -- where you're not even supposed to believe that what you're seeing is possible, just cool. Read more
Chuck Wilson, L.A. Weekly: Zippy, stylish fun. Read more
Gene Seymour, Newsday: As long as you consume it as fast as it moves, you won't get indigestion. Read more
Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger: A vapid attempt to ride the high-octane coattails of Fast and Furious. Read more
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: If your idea of a great time is drinking a case of Red Bull while playing video games at top volume, Torque ought to provide just the right level of hyperstimulation. Read more
Elvis Mitchell, New York Times: This monotonously macho action-adventure film wears testosterone as if it were a new fragrance. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: A chase picture for 12-year-olds. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: It's difficult to tell which is worse -- the acting or the writing. Read more
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com: Produces little in the way of rotation, torsion or anything else that could be roughly diagrammed as excitement. Read more
Walter V. Addiego, San Francisco Chronicle: A strong candidate for the most thunderingly stupid movie of the year. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Amazingly enough, this two-wheeled spinoff of The Fast and the Furious has dumbed down the franchise. Read more
Stephen Cole, Globe and Mail: A good stupid movie. Read more
Susan Walker, Toronto Star: The creators of Torque needn't have gone to all the trouble of making a movie; they could have proceeded straight to the video game. Read more
Joe Leydon, Variety: Even the more attention-grabbing scenes are too obviously faked to build suspense, and too confusingly cut to sustain continuity. Read more
Nat Johnson, Village Voice: Thankfully, Torque knows what it wants to be ... and flashes a jocular self-awareness about its genre affiliation. Read more
