Speed on VHS—pure 90s action bliss.This is the movie that reignited Keanu Reeves’ career, turned Sandra Bullock into a superstar, and let Dennis Hopper chew up every scene he touched.Sure, the premise is ridiculous. But that’s the point. You don’t watch Speed for realism—you watch it for the thrill. For the impossible stunts. For the moment a bus jumps a freeway gap and somehow sticks the landing. Praise the movie gods.And honestly? If you’re firing up a VCR, this is exactly the kind of tape you want spinning.@movies
🎵Bus from Speed🎵
I finally got around to watching this last year and enjoyed it, unsurprisingly. The jump is tremendously dumb (seriously, could they not even have contrived a ramp‽) but other than that I was happy to buy into the silliness. You chew that scenery, Hopper!
The DVD extras allow you to watch the real bus jump from five different angles. It didn't look too healthy once it landed. 😁
