Impressive movie!

Rating: 7/10 (2 April 2020)

But pobably even better if you're really into cars, but good anyway. There is a lot of technical car stuff, I wonder what someone with a true understanding of racing and car engineering thinks/feels watching this movie, how much is on point? Beacuse it's some technical talk going on and stuff like that, about cars and racing. I personally don't know anything about it, I like racing video games but don't actually know that much about cars. But there is some beautiful cars in this movie, really mesmerizing. Acting is good too, on most accounts, especially Bale off course, but he already proven to be a great method character actor by this point, it will be intresting to see what he does next in his career. The story is off course very predictable if you already know the true story, which I actually did, but it was very good watch anyway, inspiring and tragic. Cinematography and sound outstanding. Also some humor and drama which both worked.
But the most beautiful parts of this movie, that I will carry with and that I didn't know that it would actually have a good impact, is the brotherly friendship between Miles and Shelby. Also their passion and drive. And the comment: "you can't win a race with a committee." Amazing and true about so many things, too many opinions of too many people that want to control a thing to what they want it to be, never works. It usually does the opposite of what it is set out to do.
Anyway, beside the big tragedy of Ken Miles, a real character and a genius it seems he was a tale of victory and success. All in all, a very good movie. I think it's even better if you truly know car stuff though, but it's good either way. I would recommend this movie to anyone.
