Speed Racer and Southland Tales

I love 'Speed Racer' and I actually really like 'Southland Tales.' I reviewed 'Speed' back when it came out and gave it a 7.5/10, but I think now that a 8.5/10 makes more sense. Movie was really well done. Also, 'Southland Tales', I am more confused by peoples dislike of it than anything. There were lots of negative comments when it was finally released, but I think its not great by any means, but does enough things well and has a good enough cast to carry it's bizarre future world predictions to the point of an enjoyable viewing experience.
