Very well:

- He equates watching Speed Racer to putting your head into a candyfloss maker in a fairground.
- He supposes that the makers of Speed Racer have found some way of ingesting "Bazooka Joe" as a narcotic substance.
- He compares Speed Racer to Sin City and Spy Kids in as much as it bridges the gap between live-action and animation
- He acknowledges that Speed Racer is an artistic construction in a similar way to Sin City.
- He largely dismisses the plot as he supposes the overarching message about corporate corruption would be lost on young children.
- He reckons it's too long.
- BUT in spite of everything, he says that it's an exhilirating experience for children and from the perspective of design, it's inspired.
