Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
freddy-41-529926 Those documentaries made by mainstream "culture channels" are basically made for people who know little or nothing on a specific subject or sport. Great for my sisters to learn on car racing... That is it! This piece is not even that.I simply could NOT deal with the fact that this is a BAD promotional film for JOTA. Not that JOTA is a bad team. not at all. My out most respect for such a young team. BUT trying to be thrifty and NOT buying the rights for important clips from FIA or whoever to show key overtakes which are actually narrated on the film or not showing the events they discuss, well in a car racing film or documentary it is the equivalent of watching "Toy Story" without Woody. As to discussing technical stuff or even basic explanations, it is a total fail. C'mon! You guys wanted to promote JOTA Racing but you ended up promoting well... pit stops and the faces of your drivers.HUGE BUMMER. Get a better PR adviser next time.
liz-174-268170 I was gripped from the start and it just got better and better. Anyone with an interest in motor racing will be wrapped by this film. I'm not a huge motor sport fan but I found this film riveting. The story line is so strong it makes the film appealing to everyone. A must watch. The voice of Patrick Stewart narrating is just the icing on the cake. The professionalism of the racing team and the comradeship combined with the dedication and drive is inspiring. The film gives us an insight into the team effort from the drivers to the trainer and the mechanics. Also the camera work is astounding. I have bought the DVD and will be watching it again and again.
Giordano Boves This is a great documentary/film. It does exactly what it says on the tin and doesn't pretend to be something it's not. Motor racing is something that is usually seen only from the track side and from the driver's perspective, but finally a racing film where we don't just see the unreachable glamour of the sport but the blood sweat and tears of all those involved (probably too covered in motor oil to appear on screen in Hollywood blockbusters!), because surprise surprise, without mechanics, engineers, pit crew etc. etc. etc. there would be no racing! Cleverly put together, amazing cinematography, some amazing original music, totally enjoyed and highly recommended...
Chick Holden OK so it is very one dimensional focusing on one team, but it says that on the tin. Surely Truth in 24 was as such? So I went in to this not expecting the next Senna or Rush or even Ti24, I went into it hoping to learn more about a small privateer team, an angle we often overlook at Le Mans, and that is exactly what I got, and in bucket loads. The cinematography was superb, the slow-mo shots breathtaking and images of Le Mans from angles I had never seen. So if you want all glitz and glamour with rivalry and stars maybe not for you, but if you like fast cars and beautiful images, with a good underdog story, then this is a must watch.
