My opinion: Motorhead necessity

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2019)

I've had a mild obsession with the GT40 since I got to see the winning car up close in 1966, just a few days after the race, so I am not an impartial viewer. Giving such a movie 10 stars may seem excessive, but for this type of film I think it's perfect. The characters, both central and peripheral, are performed perfectly, and the film includes the best in-car race footage since Grand Prix. Side note: the sound systems in modern theaters have often caused me enough discomfort to cause me to put in ear plugs, but the sound of a full-race 427 at high rpm didn't bother me at all.
