A master at work.

Rating: 8/10 (9 July 2008)

If only more men were like Burt Munro, I don't know how many liberties the director and Anthony Hopkins took with the performance but if even a little bit of it is accurate the world is a better place for men like Munro. Hopkins once again gives a masterful performance that made me love the character for the opening minutes. Every time someone or something would set him back it was a s frustrating and heartbreaking to me as it was to Munro. I guess that's what makes Hopkins such a great actor, that the same man was Hannibal Lector makes it even more impressive. The story itself is amazing and inspirational, and had me cheering him on by the end. The only thing I have to complain about is the supporting cast, I felt they all gave about average performances, nothing stand out. But I wonder if that is because of Hopkins being so damn good that he overshadows everyone else. I think we could all take a lesson from the character of Burt Munro in this film, about how to treat others and how to live life.
