“Collide” (*** out of four) was a fast and furious action thriller about an American backpacker (Nicholas Hoult) who becomes caught in a web of organized crime and deceit between two rival gangsters (Anthony Hopkins and Ben Kingsley) which results in him having to be on the run across the Autobahn. Plot is both simple-minded and overcomplicated at times but is told in high-speed and high-style and never stops moving! Enthusiastic and campy performances from Hopkins and Kingsley give this an extra boost. Should satisfy racing and car crash junkies until “Fast 8” comes out!
