Absolutely Brilliant Film!

Rating: 10/10 (9 September 2006)

Virtually flawless is all I have to say on this wonderful, biographical "feel good film" all the way from New Zealand! Deadset unbelievable true story of Burt Munro, a pensioner from New Zealand who's dream was to travel to Bonneville Salt Flats and race his 1920 Indian bike... and as you can tell from the title - he did it! In 1967 he set the record as the fastest Indian traveling just over 200 miles an hour! Fantastic performances from Anthony Hopkins and Co, Excellent cinematography, realistic storyline of a man who is sure to have a place in your heart - he's a bloody champion! Nothing ever got this man down - nothing! Just goes to show, if you can set your dreams ahead of you, if you persist through whatever odds life or the road ahead may throw at you, you can achieve anything! Uplifting, moving, hilarious, witty and just too darn good to mention everything about it... i'd be here for days... For those who have seen it know this, for those who haven't - watch it, love it and prepared to be inspired... I know I was! Cheers.
