An Adrenalin Rush

Rating: 9/10 (13 October 2013)

The best sports movies are the ones in which sports is the glue for insights into human attitudes, relationships and the spirit.Rush does very well on this count. Plus, the romanticizing of Formula 1 and the the rivalry between the methodical and the flamboyant is very entertaining.
The director manages to get under the skin of the real life characters.The script builds the characters so well that you like both of them.Some great acting and witty dialogs add to the fun.Keeps you on the edge with some racy music too. For me, the movie checks many boxes.Very relatable to non F1- enthusiasts too.It transports you to the F1 season of '76 and stays with you after it's over.
