1. Hot Wheels Acceleracers Boxed Set
My seven year old son is in love with these movies. The problem was that we were able to find only two of these movies in our local movie store. But, we decided to get this to give away as Christmas present and we are glad we picked it. The bliss we saw on his face can not be explained in words. He has already watched them several times. And, now he is interested in the next part because of the surprise available in the movie #4.
Although these movies are amazing due to consistent plot, I think the racers are unnecessarily morphed into muscular giants. It looks a bit unrealistic to me, especially when compared to the other movie ““ World Race. I am not saying they are bad, but they are different. Plus, they are involved in a little unfriendly competition. But, that’s nothing really serious, especially from kids’ point of view. That’s why you can call it a good movie for fans of Hot Wheels cars.

2.Hot Wheels Acceleracers, Vol. 4 – The Ultimate Race
There are people who are of the view that the Hot Wheels movies are actually made for older kids. But, I have to disagree, as my 4 year old son is in love with these movies. The Ultimate Race is one of his most favourite movies and he has already watched it several times without getting bored for a minute. The amazing thing is that whenever he’s given a choice to buy a movie, he opts for the Acceleracers. If you ask me, I am not very big fan of these movies because I just can’t seem to understand the whole plot. But, my husband thinks these movies are quite amazing. So, I would recommend these movies to all those parents who think their kids love cars, trucks and Hot Wheels.

3. Hot Wheels Acceleracers, Vol. 2 – The Speed of Silence
World Race has always been a favourite movie of my son, but now he is in love with Acceleracers movies. Sometimes, I don’t believe my eyes when I see him getting engrossed in watching these movies. The Speed of Silence is one great movie in all respects, but I have to say that story line has become much more complex. And, you may also find graphics and characters on the darker side. But, what disturbed me after watching this movie was the character of Marky Wylde. This character has some physical changes that are accompanied by a complete change in attitude. It’s the only confusion thing for me and my son. The rest is just fine!

4. Hot Wheels AcceleRacers, Vol. 3 – Breaking Point
Watch this movie and you will have to say that each next movie is the better than the last. In this one, you will come across better music, sound and animation. The best thing is the use of amazing cars and bikes. They are super cool. To keep children interested in the whole thing, there are much more difficult, fast and dangerous racing realms.
Many people think this movie is primarily targeted to young boys, which is true. But, the use of amazing graphics and stunning racing sequences has made it perfect for everybody. If you like fast bikes and hot cars, you are going to love this movie. The only thing you need to keep in mind is that they are some mature themes used in this movie. So, I hope that your child don’t get embarrassed when a team member doesn’t comeback from a realm. Well, it is better to watch fourth part as well because it clears the whole thing and makes kids know that everything would get better.
Another thing that I really don’t understand is the unavailability of toys from this line. It is strange why Mattel has done nothing to introduce bikes from these movies in toy form. Well, I really hope that there will be some toys from "the Ultimate Race" and "Breaking Point". Just wait and see!

For instance, you will find many kids who are well aware of Tork Maddox, Taro Kitano, Deezel "PorkChop" Riggs, Mark Wylde, and Sparky. All these characters have different role to play in these movies and take story in different directions. Moreover, there are several realms in these movies such as Wind Realm, Chrome Realm, Solar Realm, Desert Realm, and Micro Realm. The introduction of these realms has added to the excitement and thrill, and that’s why kids love watching these movies.
