Fantastic film.. Would highly recommend this to anyone, whether you're an F1 fan or not..

I was really looking forward to this and wasn't dissapointed. A great movie about two personalities who couldn't be more different and yet so much alike.

First I have to say that sports movies or in this case motor-sports movies are not the genre I usually prefer to watch. But I gave Rush a chance, because friends told me that the movie is good, and Niki Lauda is an Austrian like me. Of course not the best reasons to watch a movie from a genre you are not into. And I shouldn't have watched it. For me it was pretty boring, I started to skip some scenes. The acting of Daniel Brühl was really not good - and I hated that Austrian-English-accent. I guess yes, the people in Austria were bad in English at this time - but this accent for about two hours long. Noooooo. But if you are into Formula 1 racing... I guess you gonna like it. I don't know. 4/10 hearts.

Nikki Lauda races for his wife, James Hunt races for his boyfriend.
