Just watched it. It was alright it just never felt like it got into the meat of the story. The portrayals of the characters seemed very two dimensional like they were trying too hard to get across ones a party boy the other meticulously obsessive.
Senna was a far more intriguing and sincere film.

That certainly came across at the end of the film, no idea how realistic it was before that.



Great film, didn't know the story before and really enjoyed it.

It's not bad, but I was disappointed by the racing scenes, and the guy who played James Hunt just couldn't capture Hunt's charm.

Watched this the other night after having it for months as a present from the GF. I didn't know the story either but really enjoyed it! It's one of those films that after watching it you just want to get up and go straight to the nearest track and start blasting it around haha.

Need more motorsport films! Anyone got any suggestions??
