I saw this movie a month ago with English subtitles, won't tell ya how *cough*. Very well made, although won't make you shed any tears henners88. :p It's very detailed, accurate and very long. Won't appeal to a casual fan, but is a MUST watch for a hardcore die-hard F1 fan, even if you have seen Senna's career unfold.
Also, it shows Prost in a rather bad light, almost like a villain, so I'm sure Prost fans are gonna call it biased. When I saw the director's name, it was Indian, so I was seriously hoping he doesn't Bollywoodize this. Thankfully that's not the case. :)
That's not what I've heard at all X. Many have said that it will appeal to a huge number of people who haven't even seen an F1 race.
I've heard the same. Apparently on IMDB the film actually gets its highest scores from American women, many of whom weren't expecting him to die when the film gets to Imola '94.Quote:

I can understand how it's almost a documentary/movie kind of a thing, especially how they build it up from the beginning, about how Senna came on the scene and everyone took notice etc, then he met his villains, ala Prost and Jean Marie Balestre, how the journalists talking about him in the documentary are so emotional, one of them almost crying. So, it is made into one of those "rise-to-the-top and fall" sort of movies.Quote:

I cant seem to find it being shown outside of London other than at Showcase later this month. The Showcase airing is on my birthday so the I guess the other half is really lucking out this year. Who needs a posh fancy meal when you can go see a Senna movie eh? :D
Sorted - Off to Bluewater for the 7:45 tomorrow night. Not many seats left though.
It's on in Manchester and York!Quote:
