The Live action movie was complete crap. Sorry, someone has to say it. All other Initial D fans out there will agree.

I have it on my hard drive, 681MB. The movie was OK, it's watchable cause it's Initial D, but personally, I was disapointed.

There wasnt even any real drifting. They butchered the story AND it was just a bunch of mock-up cars driving around.


The Screenplay was okay, as was the cinematography.

S4 and S5 FCs came with a 8 grand tach, the S5 NA came with a 9k tach

i didn't like the movie. since they totally screwed up the storyline, and i have seen all initial d anime (stage 1 episodes 1-26, Stage 2 episodes 1-13, stage 3 movie and stage 4 episode 1-24) before i saw the movie and it was VERY VERY VERY disappointing!!! the cars aren't real, and the people are chinese even though the movie was made in Japan (Eneos Gas Station in the movie, GC Gas Station in Anime).

Two Thumbs down. (like Ebert and Roeper says)
