I suspect more than a few here are not familiar with Akira. Don't compare it to an action movie, compare it to a superhero/sci-fi movie. Like "psychic batman in the 22nd century" or something. It looks a little less hokey that way. The graphic novel was freaking awesome.

Any movie where the car/actors look designed like the inevitable toy to come. Really the one piece bright red jump suit same color as the motorcycle? How Doushie

Not yet anyways. Not until Leo kills Akira once and for all.

A lot of good movies...
Mad Max / Road Warrior
American Graffiti
Death Race 2000
Bullit
I'm surprised only one mention of
"Grand Prix"
CinemaScope, Technicolor, with in car cameras. I still remember how it made you feel like you were in the cars racing. One of the first and for me the best for that realism. A great story with great actors. I still quote lines from this movie.
