Our Experience

Rating:        9/10

Man, I wish I saw this on the big screen! Every time I watch it, I am fascinated and blown away. It is justsuch a fun movie, with an absolutely amazing soundtrack. I don't know about the accuracies in the movie or the details about F1, but I love the main character that went through hell, messed up his life, learnt from it, and has made his peace with it. He has found what he wants to do, and the 'noise' doesn't matter anymore. It's even a hit with my kids!
