Have you seen the movie? Inquiring minds wanna know!

Yes, I saw the movie Thursday night, a day before its official release. It is terrific. Both actors did a terrific job portraying difficult personalities. And, the racing scenes put you into the car with the driver. Can't ask for more than that. If you've driven on a race course and know how it feels, then you feel it watching the film.

viewers might have hoped for a bit more racing in a film about famous Formula One icons but Rush still manages to capture the speed, intensity, and dangers of the track in sharp and poignant driving sequences that don’t overstay their welcome or devolve into sensory overload. Ultimately, Rush excels in its exploration of the Hunt and Lauda relationship as well as how the iconic rivalry helped shaped each racer – both on and off the track. A few stiff moments where philosophical musings as well as lessons on the value of respect and rivalry are heavy-handed but, overall, solid performances from Brühl and Hemsworth ground this exciting sports story with a likable mix of charisma, reverence, and speed.
