Rush is the true story of two Formula 1 race car drivers James Hunt (Hemsworth) and Niki Lauda (Bruhl) whose rivalry during the 70's propelled them to the top of the sport. James the reckless, hard partying womanizer and Niki the meticulous self indulged prude, both from different but similar backgrounds, upon their first meeting ignited a fierce rivalry that pushed each to the goal of being a champion. But the prize did not come without sacrifices from the dueling pair as they both paid heavy costs, personally and financially.
Reel Talk:
I must admit that I am not a fan of race cars, but this is not just about racing, it tells the story of both drivers from the start of their career to their end and director Ron Howard does a good job bringing their story to film.Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Bruhl put in good performances as both Hunt and Lauda. This movie will keep you engaged with a good story and the fast paced action on the raceway is intense. A must see film that's well worth the admission.
