I have a confession. I actually start to really like Speed Racer towards the end. It's tough to get into it at first, because the opening race is broken up by like 20 flashbacks to Speed as a little boy, and the next half-hour after the race is about contract negotiations. Also, the bright colors and the fake backgrounds and all the little kids running around make you feel like you're watching a cross between Spy Kids 3-D and Lazytown. But by the time you get to the end, everybody starts swearing a lot more, and everyone's motivations are a lot clearer, and you're a lot more emotionally invested in the action. (I also realized that the cartoon-y filmmaking style was actually pretty darn faithful to the original series' animation.) So I was pretty happy going into the extras for this DVD, but once I realized that there was no commentary track and only two features, I was kinda disappointed again.
