Full Plot Details

Revenge of the Electric Car presents the recent resurgence of electric vehicles as seen through the eyes of four pioneers of the EV revolution. Director Chris Paine (Who Killed the Electric Car? 2006) has had unprecedented access to the electric car research and development programs at General Motors, Nissan, and Tesla Motors, while also following a part time electric car converter who refuses to wait for the international car makers to create the electric cars the public demands. As more models of electric cars than ever before start to arrive in showrooms and driveways across the world, Chris Paine's film offers an inspiring, entertaining and definitive account of this revolutionary moment in human transportation. Revenge of the Electric Car follows these auto makers as they race each other to create the first, best, and most publicly accepted electric cars for the new car market.

Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 9/10 by Daniel M. GoldIn the end, Revenge of the Electric Car is a slick, enjoyable valentine to a retooling industry. This optimistic film lacks the outrage of the earlier work, but that's O.K. A movement needs its triumphs too.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Mick LaSalleA curious thing about "Revenge" is that auto executives who might have been portrayed as villains in Paine's earlier documentary are likable characters here.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertSo Paine's 2006 doc has a happy sequel. His film is just as polished and good-looking as his first one, gives us a good look at automakers we like, and is entertaining. But the first film was charged with drama. "Revenge" is somewhat anticlimactically charged with a wall plug.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Jennie PunterGiven Paine's penchant for B-movie-sounding titles, let's hope he gets to make it a trilogy that concludes with The Electric Car Lives!
Salon.com - 8/10 by Andrew O'HehirPaine seems delighted to root for all three companies and essentially declares a three-way tie, which may be fine for the moment.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 8/10 by Chris HewittI doubt "Revenge of the Electric Car" will change any minds, but I could see it shifting them slightly, and that's not nothing.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Chuck BowenThis is still the kind of film that's probably most necessary if movies hope to play any kind of part in our cultural rehab.
The List - 8/10 by Miles FielderHere's a rarity: an environmentally themed documentary that's got a positive story to tell.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch - 8/10 by Calvin WilsonLacks the urgency of "Who Killed the Electric Car?" But Paine's thorough knowledge of his subject, and engaging way with an interview, make the follow-up film a fun ride.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 8/10 by Colin CovertIf you thought you'd never mist up at a nonfiction movie about plug-in autos, you're in for a surprise. This is a surprisingly emotional trip, and a very enjoyable one.
