Saw one trailer that made it look really good. Saw another that made it look like "Days of Our Lives" with racing. I fear the Ron Howard effect will likely ruin it.

The Swedish TV commentator for F1 claims it is a really good movie. He is a former racing driver and as far as he can judge it looks to be the real deal. Looking forward to it.

Saw the trailer recently and it looks and sounds pretty good. Hope it doesn't turn out like Driven or Days of Thunder. If it is half as good as Grand Prix with James Garner it should be a hit.

No movie will ever replace "Le Mans" as the greatest (ultimate) movie. The reason is no movie will ever again be directed by an actor/racer who has no regard for the budget. Get it right at any cost is just not going to happen.

Buzz is that this is in fact a very good racing movie.
Let's see if Opie can redeem himself for some of the dreck he's produced in the past.

Here's hoping the CGI crap is held to a minimum.

David Hobbs and that other guy that co-hosts the F1 broadcasts on NBCSN both gave it a very positive review. That's good enough for me.

While a documentary "Fastest" is a very good racing movie.

I'm looking forward to seeing it.
One question. Who is Clint Howard going to play in this movie?
