A biography of Formula 1 champion driver Niki Lauda and the 1976 crash that almost claimed his life. Mere weeks after the accident, he got behind the wheel to challenge his rival, James Hunt.

Rush was absolutely fantastic! Pretty much captured the essence behind formula one racing and brilliantly personified the logic and the passion of the race by the two drivers Niki Lauda and James Hunt. I felt every moment of the movie... Well moreso from Lauda's POV than Hunt's. I absolutely recommend it!

And lo and behold; Hans Zimmer did the soundtrack! I knew there was a reason why I liked it!

I seriously would love to see Niki Lauda and James Hunt's charts. Such amazing personalities.

Huh... The critics from Rotten Tomatoes actually liked the movie.

Its so rare of see them give any movie a mark above 50%.

I also have shots from this year's Honda Indy which I will share later on. Its always a thrilling experience seeing a F1 or Indy race in person!

And some really good movies are in their rotten pile. I get that "searching for existentialism through a haze of bong smoke" is a past time for some of these reviews but come on!

BTW Randall, did you see the movie?

And as promised here are the highlights from this year's Honda Indy in Toronto (through my eyes.)

Pre-Race Super Trucks Race.
