While the film looks great, I am fraid this type of film will get snubbed at the academy like Warrior was in 2011. I could not understand how that movie was snubbed out. Hopefully this film won't get the same lame treatment

Destined to be a classic what? Oscar bound? What academy awards? 95%?

88% on RT and 78% everywhere else. I think that the funniest comment so far is that it is the best auto racing film of all time. Let's see. "Talladega Nights." Tom Cruise's movie (I refuse to look it up) that was basically Top-Gun at the racetrack. Steve McQueen's movie...uh any others? Robert Wagner...There is a reason that nobody produces auto racing films BECAUSE AUTO RACING IS BORING AND THE DRIVERS ARE INCREDIBLY BORING. Oooh wow...Nicky Lauda suggesting Magnesium parts fro a lighter car? No engineer thought of that? Two spoiled rich brats... Wow! These guys feet are so quick! I can bet that 95% of the teenage boys watching this have never even driven a stick before. And if Hunt, James Hunt had been born one decade later he would have died of AIDS. The real Hunt was figured to have laid over 5,000 women including 33 British Airways stews (What flight attendants used to be called.) Wow..What a stud! Wow! How boring is this?
Why did I go? Because my b-in-law used to be in the pit crew for Ricky Rudd....so this was mandatory. I think he had eight or nine orgasms in the first half of the movie. I left and went out into the lobby around the time they were changing Nicky's burn dressings. As a critical care and trauma nurse I didn't need to see this..Thanks Ron!!
Thank heavens I can get Henry V on Netflix.

Just saw it this past weekend. Honestly, this was an easy 9/10. I found this to be much more emotional than I thought it would be. It really hit every emotion. The racing sequences, though some were splotchy or completely skipped, were exhilarating. The final race in Japan was incredible. I also can appreciate that Nikki Lauda helped Ron Howard and Daniel Bruhl throughout. This link will make you appreciate this film more than already before. Some neat facts about the production and real life vs movie. http://www.historyvshollywood.com/reelfaces/rush.php

I'm actually sad. CWACOM got more money the first week. What has this world come to?

Betting for 90%. Some of those lines were classic. Best director goes to Ron Howard. Clue: when you can't really figure out WHO the underdog is, you have a really great movie.

There were some good camera shots but I would not rate this over 70%. To tell the truth I was about to walk out until Nicki Louda was injured. Things stepped up at that point so I stuck it out. I also stayed out of respect for Ron Howard.

95-100 %

I'd place it around the 90-95% margin, although I give it a 99-100% myself. Prepare for some awards to be given to this one, it was just excellent.

Movie Person

I don't quite think 95, having seen it, but hopefully high eighties, or low nineties. Ron Howard deserves a Best Director nod, if nothing else.

Just saw this. It was really great. The theater was PACKED.

Chris is a "slightly" better actor than his brother

I say 91-92%. I also see this as a huge contender in the sound category come Oscars next year.

Movie Person

I'd wager eighty-something. It doesn't look as Oscar-baity as you might expect,and it's release date is earlier than say, 12 Years A Slave. I'll be seeing it at the weekend, so I guess I can make up my mind for sure then.

89% at the time of writing. Just saw it this evening and it is a brilliantly acted, fast paced gem of a film. It may not get any oscars, but it rates 95%+ on my own tomatometer. Highly recommended.

I'm thinking it will be 80-85%.

around 90%. should be like 100% though, it was great.

Sep 17 - 07:57 AM

Cameron Corns

Also, I predict in the mid to lower 90% range

The movie will do just fine in the United States. Sure, some people will go to it thinking its about "NASCAR" (because uninformaed people here think all auto-racing is NASCAR :x ) I'm a huge auto-racing fan and I know I will enjoy this film. There's been a lot of ads here and I'm sure it will seel just fine to the United States.

Hoping it stays in the 90s. Really excited to see this one regardless of its tomatometer

You know what? I think it will not do good in the United States. Can't see a movie doing good in today's market about formula one in the 1970's. Europe maybe, USA no.
