My Thoughts:

Here's an amazing five minutes clip from the film.

Synopsis:
Every five years, the toughest and most destructive underground car race in the universe, “REDLINE” draws the most elite drivers for a winner-takes-all asphalt battle! JP is a dare-devil reckless driver oblivious to speed limits with his ultra-customized wheels named “Transa Am.” One of his competitors, Sonosee is a hot girl determined to do whatever it takes to stand on the winner’s podium in the REDLINE. In order to win the finals, they’re up against the craziest drivers on the race scene with their deadly and awesome road-tearing vehicles. Moreover the biggest problem for JP is that he secretly is in love with Sonosee!

The only one rule in the race is there’re no rules. While cars crash and burn and the courses become a merciless hell, JP whips his ride into a dead heat!

Who will survive to win in this mass-destruction race?! And what about JP’s romance?

EDIT: Looks like Redline will be shown in France in June:
France's Annecy, the world's largest animation film festival, has announced on Wednesday that Takeshi Koike and Madhouse's Redline anime will compete in the Feature Film category of the June 8-13 event.
