It was pretty true to Martin Donnelly's actual accident. The photos of the driver in the road were actual stills from that crash.

As to the movie, it was fine summer entertainment. Fun to watch. Entertaining. Not deep. Racing footage was good , still prefer LeMans.

But OMG the trailers, I really don't need to be subjected to some dystopian thing about guys on a walk being gunned down in IMAX at excessive volume, then several other shootem up pictures. C'mon. Close to 30 min of trailers and ads, all earsplitting.
