everyone bitches that no one ever makes decent movies about the real import scene
someone finally takes the time and puts in the money and effort to make a movie that looks like it will actually be a decent and fair depiction of the scene and all of you cheap fuckers want to see it for free or will likely steal it from a P2P site
:disgust1:
spend the fucking $20 and buy the god damn movie
even if it sucks... im sure youve all pissed away $20 on far more worthless shit before

I'm pretty sure we all meant what we said as a joke. I've already bought it. Just haven't received.
Oh sorry, I forgot to tell you guys how it was. I bought it 2 weeks ago...
It was ok. The trailor really does make it seem better than it actually is, just like most movies anyway.
IMO, it's more of a documentary on how street racing started and where it is today. It's not about just the big street racing boom from the last 5-10 years.
I guess I was expecting more actual street racing clips than what is in the movie. I'm not real happy with the purchase of this DVD but I am satisfied with it.

1320 - A West Coast Story
Street Racing
1320 takes a documentary approach of the street racing scene in greater California and the issues surrounding it. Starting with historical references to the muscle car era, the rise of sanctioned groups such as the NHRA, the main theme of the documentary is that there will always be street racing for two main reasons.
First, tracks are limited, not convenient, and the ones that do exist are facing financial difficulties and are facing the possibility of closing.
Second, the light-to-light races will likely never end due to 'men being men'.
The movie takes you to the streets and shows some clips of street races and interviews some street racers. Just when you are worked up and excited about the concept, the writers bring in the sad side to street racing- accidents, car impounding, tickets, and even deaths and life-long injuries.
All in all, it was a nice historical representation of what happens on the 'other coast' from me. I've never been out west and haven't seen any thing quite like what they represent first hand. If you're expecting footage over and over again of street races and hot cars, you will be a bit disappointed. While there are a few scenes of actual street races, most of the movie is interviews and topics surrounding why street racing exists and the inherit nature and problems therein.
Fortunately, there is no "Michael Moore" attitude in this documentary. The filmmakers present the material as it is and do not offer their own opinion or narration on any concepts one way or another. It's nice to see an objective documentary on a topic which we are all familiar.
