So terrible

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2018

We thought this movie might be awful d I’m the reviews, but gave it a shot since we are boat enthusiasts and were interested in the Donald Aranow story. The “plot” ? makes no sense. There is no story and the accuracies around the boating we’re almost non-existent.

True Story - SPEED kILLS - about Miami and life in the fast lane.

Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2019

I lived in SE Florida when Miami & Ft. Lauderdale were like the "wild west" days out West after the American Civil War.
The story was pretty true to what I know happened but the acting was second class. Definitly not Travolta's best effort. And several of the other charatcers were played by what I would consider B-list actors.
So, if you know nothing about these days in Miami you will probably like it more than I did.
People who live in SE Florida and remember Don Aranow and his go-fast boat companies may be disappointed.

Sub-par Offering

Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2019

As a huge follower of the performance boat scene, the movie line has potential to be a great story. Don Aronow is a pioneer in the industry, and the depiction of his persona could be a hit. However, that's where this film falls short. The horrible attempt to re-create scenes from the 1970's & 80's is widely apparent. Think a movie scene from 1960 using modern day vehicles and buildings. It doesn't work! The boat chase looks to be something from a 70's film using a bad video image played on a green-screen. I wanted to see it to simply see how they did..... EPIC FAIL! I'd rather have saved my money.

Really disappointed in Travolta's acting. This was a bad movie all the way around. Whether it is true or not, it was really disjointed in the story.

Travolta wieder

Reviewed in Germany on April 23, 2019

Verified Purchase

Vorweg, ich bin ein Travolta Fan, vielleicht schwinkt das ein wenig neu der Bewertung mit. Lasst euch nicht vom Cover in die Irre führen, es handelt sich nicht um einen Actionreißer. Due Geschichte basiert auf wahren Ereignissen Astra den Leben von Donald Aronow dar. Dieser Mann war ein sehr guter Rennbootfahrer und Bauer in den 70er Jahren. Donald Aronow hatte Kontakte zu Drogenschmugglern aufgrund der schnellen Boote und da ist es klar, dass der Ärger mit Polizei und Co nicht lange ausbleibt. 1987 würde dann Donald Aronow aus unerklärlichen Gründen getötet... Ich finde, das John Travolta hier eine Glanzleistung ableisten und der Film der gut und unterhaltsam ist.

am besten auf Englisch schauen

Reviewed in Germany on April 12, 2019

Man ist zwar gewöhnt das die deutsche Tonspur schlechter ist und sollte daher eh immer die englische wählen. Jedoch ist es bei dem Film extrem. Wenn es nur die deutsche Tonspur gäbe, wäre der Film nur für Travolta Fans was: nicht wirklich überzeugend. Die englische hingegen ist um Welten besser und wirkt stimmig.
Ansonsten keine Bösen überraschungen erlebt. Ein Film den man ruhig anschauen kann mit Jon Travolta.

Tolles Biopic - kein Action Film oder Blockbuster

Reviewed in Germany on April 13, 2020

Verified Purchase

John Travolta spielt in diesem Biopic Don Aronov , einen der größten Offshore Bootsbauern aller Zeiten ( Name im Film leicht geändert) Dieser Film ist kein Blockbuster ( mit einem Budget von wenigen als 10 Mio auch nicht möglich) und erst recht kein Action Film ( Die wenigen Action Szenen spiegeln das winzige Budget wieder )
Wer eine interessante Geschichte sehen möchte , wird nicht enttäuscht. Wer hier Fast and the Furios erwartet sollte besser einen anderen Film schauen.

Speed Kills ist die Verfilmung der wahren Geschichte des 1987 ermordeten Speedboat-Designers Donald Joel Aronow. Gutes Thema schlechte Umsetzung. Schade für die Schauspieler.
