All of the bright color and cartoonish effects are really fun under the right circumstances. ;) Even if not under the influence, it can still be a real fun movie especially when it feels like it's making fun of itself. Was a fan of the original show so I liked the movie for that fact alone but the other factors take it over the top, just like the effects. A fun ride, just like the one the race cars have. It's like a more colorful family friendly Sin City. Much of the movie is like riding a rainbow. It is probably the most colorful movie there is. The plot stands on its own even if it is often overshadowed by obvious ridiculousness.
