Review of Speed

Speed (1994)
Dennis Hopper steals the show
15 January 2003
Excellent concept here, virtually the entire film takes place at top speed, and afterwards you get the feeling you have been on the chase for 2 hours also. Reeves and Bullock are fine, but the sinister performance from Hopper is by far the most memorable. This was during the time he was filming those acid-trip NIKE commercials, and his character here fits that bill. He manages to shine despite being in relatively few of the scenes. Maybe it was those commercials or other films he made, but he was entirely believable and perfect in the part. It had excitement, had a solid plot, but most of all, had Dennis Hopper at his sinister best.
