The movie Torque is an action movie with a "ridiculous" amount of special effects. The film was released in 2006 and is directed by Justin Lin, the director of the Fast & Furious trilogy. Although it's considered to be one of the most expensive independent films ever made, it has had a overshadowed release with critics describing it as "a simple-minded action flick". The film stars Clancy Brown as Martin Riggs, a Vietnam War veteran turned police officer who discovers that he is able to drive cars at superhuman speeds and then joins forces with another car-obsessed detective John Hobbs played by Sung Kang. The film was written by Adam Marcus, with story by Ian Shorr. It was produced by Neal H. Moritz, David Valdes, Andrea Iervolino and Brian Oliver. Moritz said he loved the original film so much that he wanted to honor its legacy with this movie. It was filmed in the period of 40 days, with one day being used for rehearsals and pre-production meetings. The producers have indicated that the film will have additional footage added to it after its initial release. This is very unusual in modern film production as most films are released fully completed. The producers of "Torque" were able to obtain use of an Audi R8, one of the two Audi R8s ever made (the other one is owned by the film's producer Neal H. Moritz). According to the producers of the film, this was made possible with their ability to obtain $12 million in funding from Aston Martin. The Aston Martin team helped install some modifications on the car for use in the film, including its steering wheel and some original paint on it. The filmmakers decided not to hard-code any specific Audi parts into their version of the car, but instead digitally "add' on" or customise some characteristics that were missing or not present in an authentic R8. According to the director of the film, Justin Lin, critics have strongly criticised the film because it is "incomprehensible" and contains a "ridiculous" amount of special effects. A reviewer from the automotive magazine "CAR Magazine" said that if they hadn't been able to follow some of the car stunts in this movie with a high degree of intelligence, then they would have been extremely disappointed. However, many reviewers have been more positive about it. On Rotten Tomatoes, which aggregates reviews from a wide variety of critics and users, the film has an approval rating of 67%, based on 97 reviews with an average rating at 4.8/10. The website's critical consensus reads, ""Torque" has enough action and big-budget production values to make it worthwhile for fans of no-holds barred stunts". The film's crew is made up of both veteran and newbie film makers. Director Justin Lin has previously directed "Better Luck Tomorrow", which is one of the few independent Asian-American films made in the past decade that has managed to achieve commercial success in mainstream markets. Most of the special effects were done by in-house technicians at San Francisco's Industrial Light & Magic, who previously worked on movies like "", "Matrix Reloaded", and "X2". cfa1e77820
