Speed Racer discovers that the world of auto racing is fixed by powerful and corrupt moguls. With the help of his family, the young race-car driver competes in a cross-country rally to expose those responsible. In this live-action adaption of the seminal Japanese anime, style and CGI are turned up to the max for a non-stop, candy- colored rush.
