The most dangerous and exciting car race in the universe is held only once every five years. And that's tonight. The competitors are lined up at the starting block. In his vehicle, JP, the most daredevil driver on the circuit, is ready for the green light. Female driver Sonoshee, with whom he is secretly in love, is also on the starting line. She will stop at nothing to get on to that podium. In this race, not only is anything possible, but also anything is allowed. In fact, their adversaries have modified their vehicles to equip them with highly destructive weapons; with such participants, it is hardly surprising that Redline is forbidden by the authorities, who will try anything to halt the proceedings.

Damn, Redline was one epic movie. I can't believe it took me so long to check this out. The animation is out of this world (those 7 years of production did not go to waste) and the whole movie just oozes style. I'm not even a fan of racing but this had me at the edge of my seat the whole time. Also, that OST was just bumpin'. I'm still listening to REDLINE DAY (feat. Rob Laufer) from the credits as we speak (click below). Madhouse can do no wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbJanCYONrk

Peak of japanese animation. The author really tought :"waith, this is an animation film, i can make wathever the fuck i want happen on the screen" and really made whathever the fuck he wanted happen on the screen. Masterclass in pacing and animation, aiming to be a more "fun" type of film, it always respects the audience and never explains whats happening with usless "explaination" type of scenes. A rare gem that shows everyone what making a "fun" movie means. Do i put this film in the olympus of animation films? Yeah, fuck you it fucking deserves it. Ps watch it in a language that you can understand, film is unwatchable with subtitles

This Movie symbolizes everything I've ever wanted in my life. A collective passion, fueled by unchecked late stage capitalism, featuring the most diverse cast of awful people all fiending to get their fix. Engaged in the most platonic ideal of competition one can imagine. Seeing this film again fixed my mental health.

WOW this is one epic racing movie! I found this movie by accident a few hours ago and i have to say that this is one of the best racing movies i have ever seen!

The animation is beautiful. I can see that those 7(!) years in production have certainly paid off. Its over the top, realistically impossi More

An interplanetary outlaw space race draws fame and fortune for its participants, though some seem willing to eschew the former in favor of more latter. JP is one such shady customer, a perennial runner-up who’s never qualified for the grand finals because his connections in organized crime make be More
