The best racing film is one with a triumphant finish.

Presentation:

This is likely my favorite racing film with a ton of heart, drive and fierce competition that you should expect from competitive racing. Burnt rubber and fast pace, slow when it needs to be in one of the best time periods for pure racing. Daniel Bruhl and Chris Hemsworth have a ton of chemistry despite being foils.

Conclusion:

Racing films often dont capture the thrill and speed, especially with modern CGI but this one feels authentic, fast and exhilarating. Even for people that don't care for racing, a fantastic story with a photo finish.
