I enjoyed the feel of the movie very much. It reminded me of that time and how it felt to be living in that time, when anything seemed possible. The photography was excellent, and the visuals superb. I have to say Christian Bale did an excellent job portraying the energy some still carried after WW2, and There were a few times where I felt a some of the charm of Carroll Shelby emanating from Matt Damon.

Its not going to win any prizes for the racing or the way they filmed the gearshifts, but honestly I don't think you can often expect that. Those were days when charisma, brains and raw talent could mix with empirical knowledge to get you to the top.

It was Young Tom Edison meets Seabiscuit, with cars. Maybe a tiny bit of The Right Stuff thrown in. The inevitable ending got me.

I cannot go back to the sixties, but this was a very nice visit for me, and I often look back at those days with the kind of golden glowing aura that this movie provides. If you are going in to analyze the accuracy of every moment, don't go. If you believe in the magic of the right people at the right place at the right time in history, that is this movie..
