REVIEW:

In a year of stupid and fun movies involving cars, it's nice to see that there's one that tells not only a fascinating story, but a true story nonetheless.  "Rush" tells the tale of the long rivalry that took place between British driver James Hunt and Austrian driver Nicki Lauda.  Hunt is a reckless womanizer while Lauda is a devoted driver.  They might not become best friends in the end, but the story in itself is riveting and extremely entertaining, to say the least.  Thanks to the superb acting from Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Brühl, some well shot racing sequences, and superb direction from Ron Howard, "Rush" is a fun and impressive movie that is sure to win people over in the coming years.  While it's not one of my personal favorites of the year, mostly due to pacing and other minor problems like that, I would still highly recommend it for fans of Chris Hemsworth, Ron Howard, and/or racing films.

Hello viewers of this blog,

Due to recent comments of spam and profanity present from obnoxious kids who think they are the funniest people in the world, I would like to request that the comments posted here are in good taste, meaning that they have no Anti-Semitic remarks, profanity, sexual innuendo, or any insults to myself. You can criticize the review and give pointers on how to make them better, but how about we be adults about this. Ok? Thank you, and have a nice day.
