Born to race cars, Speed Racer (Emile Hirsch) is aggressive, instinctive and, most of all, fearless.
His only real competition is the memory of the brother he idolized -- the legendary Rex Racer, whose
death in a race has left behind a legacy that Speed is driven to fulfill. Speed is loyal to the family racing
business, led by his father, Pops Racer (John Goodman), the designer of Speed's thundering Mach 5.
When Speed turns down a lucrative and tempting offer from Royalton Industries, he not only infuriates
the company's maniacal owner (Roger Allam) but uncovers a terrible secret -- some of the biggest races
are being fixed by a handful of ruthless moguls who manipulate the top drivers to boost profits. If
Speed won't drive for Royalton, Royalton will see to it that the Mach 5 never crosses another finish line.
The only way for Speed to save his family's business and the sport he loves is to beat Royalton at his
own game. With the support of his family and his loyal girlfriend, Trixie (Christina Ricci), Speed teams
with his one-time rival -- the mysterious Racer X (Matthew Fox) -- to win the race that had taken his
brother's life: the death-defying, cross-country rally known as The Crucible.
For charismatic party guy Jack Fuller (Ashton Kutcher) and buttoned-up commodities trader Joy McNally (Cameron Diaz), a rowdy weekend coincidentally shared in Las Vegas should have, by all rights, ended up being little more than a random blur. That is, if these two vacationing New Yorkers didn't have a signed marriage license staring them in the
face to shockingly remind them of the giant misstep they took while feeling no pain, Vegas-style.
Stacking the deck, not only did Jack and Joy tie the knot after tying one on, but later scored a mind-blowing three million bucks in a slot machine bonanza. Well, Jack won it with Joy's quarter. At the machine she'd already been playing. Or was it the other way around? And
whose loot is it anyway?
Set in the west-side Los Angeles fight world, a world inhabited by bouncers, cage-fighters, cops, and special forces types, Redbelt is the story of Mike Terry (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a Jiu-jitsu master who has avoided the prize fighting circuit, choosing to instead pursue an honorable life by operating a self defense studio with a samaurai's code.
Terry and his wife Sondra (Alice Braga) struggle to keep the business running to make ends meet. An accident on a dark, rainy night at the Academy between an off duty officer (Max Martini) and a distraught lawyer (Emily Mortimer) puts in motion a series of events that will change Terry's life dramatically introducing him to a world of promoters (Ricky Jay, Joe Mantegna) and movie stars (Tim Allen). Faced with this, in order to pay off his debts and regain his honor, Terry must step into the ring for the first time in his life.
