I watched Rush today. I liked how the story was presented, the acting and attention to detail. Lovely to see all the authentic old cars. However it's a shame they chose to go with a heavily processed digital look for the movie. In places it makes it look like a NFS trailer. The races were also covered poorly with more attention on experimental camera shots and fast cuts instead of making the cars and tracks shine. I would have loved to see IMAX cameras put to good use here, instead it's often blurry with a lot of shaky cam. It's a good thing the actors kept the movie interesting. 6/10
In the behind the scenes footage Ron Howard explains he didn't want to go with modern F1 coverage but take a more movie like approach. I didn't find the result very appealing, the last race on Fuji was especially bad. The footage in the extras looks so much better. Awesome to see the old 6 wheeled F1 cars, never seen them before.
