I watched it the other day, I thought it was really good. Like everything you have to wonder about accuracy since it's always the truth according to who's telling the story. Having said that I thought it seemed pretty well balanced over all.

I still haven't seen the movie yet though.

Could have been so good! The cars, the actors, etc etc....

But it was utter garbage. Was there a single downshift in the whole movie?? The way that the cars closed the clock at 200mph. The 'not yet' in the lead up to important passes..... It all just totally undermined the credibility of the film, for me. Super disappointing, because it's such a crazy story!

I thought it was a fantastic movie. I hope it is up for an Oscar
