Rush...into the cinemas!

Rating: 10/10 (1 October 2013)

What a movie! I am not particularly interested in the F1 or racing sports; nor did I even knew James Hunt. Niki Lauda as an Austrian bloke I knew. As I toddler I have seen him on TV and described all F1 cars as "Niki Lauda".
With the director, the cast and the trailer I had huge expectations and I wasn't disappointed.
The script is great, the director does a fine job to get you to the edge of the seat as you watch the racing scenes as well as the strong dialogs.
Hunt and Lauda are the most interesting characters since a long, long time. It's refreshing to have heroes not based on a comic! Hemsworth and Brühl do a superb job, Brühl even manages to talk in the viennese dialect of Lauda, which is really really hard(trust me, I am from Vienna and I couldn't do it).
The story is a kind of modern Shakespeare drama, with two actors giving us their best performances as actors so far.
This movie should get a bunch of Oscars (Director, Music, Sound Effects, Hemsworth, Brühl, Script).
Do not miss it on the big screen!
