How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A high-octane revenge thriller that strips down to its core appeal: watching an underdog outrun both his enemies and the law across America in increasingly ridiculous cars. It's all kinetic momentum and vindication, plot stripped for speed.
