Slow and boring movie

Rating: 3/10 (10 July 2006)

I'm somewhat of a car/motorcycle nut and was really looking forward to seeing this movie about an amazing man and his amazing motorcycle. I wanted less personal relationship and character development and more details about the man and his dream. This is a chick flick with lots of warm fuzzy feelings. It is not a racing film. Anthony Hopkins did not play the sort of person that I imagined on a racing motorcycle. My vision is an energetic wiry motorcycle nut, not a slow couch potato.
Was this man really such a womanizer? That single fact dominated the movie. I will be investigating the history to confirm or deny this fact.
Of course the highlights were the actual racing scenes. It sure took a long time to get there!
