Movie Reviews

Variety - 10/10 by Peter DebrugeNot just one of the great racing movies of all time, but a virtuoso feat of filmmaking in its own right, elevated by two of the year’s most compelling performances.
AALBC.com - 10/10 by Kam WilliamsA compelling, high-octane thriller, literally and figuratively!
Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA) - 10/10 by John WirtA movie that reminds us what a great storytelling medium film can be.
Illinois Times - 10/10 by Charles KoplinskiThis is Howard's most assured film; it brims with life - and death - and he executes it with a degree of precision and confidence that mirrors the approach his characters take toward living, that of being constantly on the edge.
Alternative Lens - 10/10 by Jennifer HeatonMuch like fellow sports movie Warrior, the film gets you rooting for both sides, and makes the races between [Hunt and Lauda] that much more tense.
MediaMikes - 10/10 by Michael A. Smith(Howards) latest film is yet another jewel in the crowns of one of the finest filmmakers of the past quarter century
Spirituality and Practice - 10/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA start-to-finish winner by director Ron Howard about two race car drivers who start out as enemies and after many years find themselves in a place that neither of them could ever have imagined.
USA Today - 10/10 by Claudia PuigBrilliantly captures the exhilaration that comes from facing death head-on. It's also an ode to joyous rivalry.
Sky Cinema - 10/10 by Tim EvansPeter Morgan's script, an object lesson in soberly effective economic writing, lends what could become two rigid stereotypes a pulsing emotional dynamic that Hemsworth and Bruhl flesh out to keenly dramatic effect.
Birmingham Mail - 10/10 by Graham YoungThere's no mistaking Thor star Chris Hemsworth as the dashing, boozing, vomiting, smoking, blond god of the track, James Hunt. If he ever becomes James Bond - as he should - he'll make Daniel Craig look like an over-developed hamster.
