Hemsworth delivers a solid james hunt, but the winner here is clearly brühl as the unrelenting niki lauda. This story was epic as it happened, and so it is on screen. Both racers were fallible egomaniacs with a weird sort of mutual respect that drove them to constantly test their limits. They achieved, but they also paid dearly. They became the real life heroes others could only make up. It is only fitting, if not quite overdue, that they got their movie to attest to that.

Stellar filmmaking from Ron Howard that got me on the edge of my seat far more than I anticipated. The racing scenes are deftly helmed and quite intense, while Bruhl and Hemsworth work well as the rival racers. One of Howard's best films to date shows that he has serious directing chops when given the right source material; here's hoping that he gets more original-feeling films like this in the future.

For one who groans at the mere thoughts of biopics and sport films, respectively, the combination of these two subgenres was far from alluring. But Ron Howard managed to keep me very entertained, and both Hemsworth and Brühl inhabit their roles well. As much as I did enjoy it, though, I also came away with the feeling that the experience had been a somewhat vacuous one.

Really well-made movie. The story is really good, and accurate by the sounds of it. Howard's directing is also very interesting, with his use of lighting and the color spectrum he uses for all of the races and scenery. Hemsworth and Bruhl both do their roles flawlessly as well. It's sad that this is a seemingly forgotten and underrated movie. It's really good. Worth a viewing if you still haven't seen it yet.

A very pleasant surprise. Director Howard has previously been a good engineer at best: Apollo was an effective drama that captured a bygone era but it was also very dry. RUSH on the other hand is energetic and funny while likewise building a believable view into the 70's formula scene. It feels like a work of a young and hungry director. This must have been a pet project to him; I have to admit that I didn't think Howard had this film in him. Hemsworth and Bruhl own their roles as well.

Prior to Lauda's accident, 'Rush' seemed to reduce his fierce rivalry with Hunt to a blandly superficial series of childish insults and bitter remarks. But it manages to haul itself up in its second half which, although steeped in certain movie conventions, competently balances storytelling and modest thrills with admirable characterization.

Howard encapsulates a time period and the nectar of whatever bizarre fascination there is to be found in watching someone race a metal box around in circles really fast. The acting is stellar and the story is sure to keep most people hooked right up until the finishing line. After that, however, this movie is a Grand Prix easily forgotten.

A wonderfully compelling take on the rivalry between two '70s Formula 1 stars, Rush never takes the easy way out. The drama comes naturally as both Bruhl and Hemsworth get chances to shine - and shine, they do. The screenplay is sharp and witty and the direction infuses the whole product with energy. An effortlessly enjoyable film that kept me utterly enthralled.

Superficial but entertaining enough portrait of the Lauda/Hunt "bromance" is told in a laid-back, old-fashioned style by Howard and Morgan, but there comes a point when this fairly lightweight (and repetitive) tale becomes a mild chore, especially when nothing is done to develop the two men's personalities beyond their "beauty and the beast" archetypes. Helped immeasurably by Hemsworth and Brühl's charismatic performances and some throaty (and exciting) race sequences.

Ron Howard once again showing us how real life story can top any fiction in the world. Well paced movie with good character development and great acting! Only bit I missed bit more is more racing as it was done brilliantly and authentic as hell! Ending of the movie as well is fantastic closure to this brilliant story. I have good feeling that Daniel Brühl will surely be in Oscar contention! (edit: Oh well looks like I was wrong, biggest mistake by Academy IMO this year)

An absolute thrill ride. Ron Howard creates a visual spectacle that surely will be Oscar bait in a few months. I see a best director, best picture and best supporting actor nomination for Daniel Bruhl coming soon. Such a heated rivalry is made even more intense by creating a tone, an atmosphere full of pressure to win. Hemsworth and Bruhl are definite treats to watch in this film, there brilliant characters allowing for higher stakes when the two of them are on the grandest stage in racing.

Thoroughly entertaining biosportsflick. Well crafted all around with Brühl's performance being a highlight. The script gives sufficient space to both Hunt's and Lauda's very different personas and the film is all the better for it. It's all you'd expect from a Hollywood blockbuster...so: well done England.

Doesn’t rise above a Discovery Channel reenactment level. No subtext between the two leads can exist, as everything is spelled out on screen, sometimes literally in font 85, for the most inexperienced and lazy viewer that whine if they don’t get their baby food in sizable portions. I only kept watching because of Brühls kind of fun impression of Niki Lauda

Even though you know what happens, the ride this movie takes is thrilling and captivating. Both actors hold their own in every scene they are in. Both character (as they say to themselves), are assholes, but as the movie progresses both grow and carry a certain weight with them. Lastly I need to praise the direction of Ron Howard; those racing scenes are some of the most amazing, exciting and visual racing that has ever graced the screen, nothing can hold a candle to it. Best movie of the year!

Hits its marks. Decent dual main character film. They each have their arc, their story gets told, no one is the logical antagonist unless you hate either hedonism or critical thinking. Howard's score ramps up the drama too artificially at times & some of the colour filtered cgi was a bit shabby bordering sharknado quality.

It’s odd how often this is praised for its approach to filming car races: critics seem just not to have perceived how great a reliance is placed on imitation TV commentary and graphics, so that the whole thing does little more than replicate the methods of sports broadcasting, resulting in a rather tired and silly way of conveying narrative. Pace may be brisk, but to describe this as “a philosophical drama about the way men move through the world” (Ty Burr) is to lose all critical perspective.

Why was I not so impressed by this? I mean, the acting was good, directing was fine, cinematography worth mentioning... But the story never got to me. I liked the story, sure, but I never really got to care for the characters and their development, or lack thereof. Lauda's fight that got him back in the seat never touched me... Am I just a cold-hearted son-of-a-bitch? Still worth a watch, though. It was plain, but good. - Good.

Rush is an entertaining film that illuminates the rivalry and friendship between Lauda and Hunt, albeit in a conventional "Hollywood" style. The racing scenes are short and not that compelling (for someone who isn't an F1 fan), though thankfully the rest of the film is. Using both subjects as the dual focus of the film was an inspired choice as they complement each other felicitously. Hemsworth is good, but Brühl steals every scene.

Ron Howard's best film in years. A tight-knit and intense look at formula one racing that doesn't focus entirely on racing, but rather smartly on the rivalry between two racing legends. The film's racing sequences are genuinely thrilling thanks to the beautiful cinematography from Anthony Dod Mantle, but it is the fascinating relationship between Lauda and Hunt that keeps you fully involved in the story.

Pretty decent biopic, but also incredibly typical Hollywood which made me dislike it. Solid acting and filmmaking, but there were so many elements in the film that made me roll my eyes because it's so typical for Hollywood (biopic) films. We get a romanticized view of two people who were both kind of jerks and this always bothers me in films. We never get to see real depth. As a film this is a pretty decent watch, but there were too many annoyances for me which made me dislike the film.

Ron Howard, perhaps justifiably, has a bad rap for overly safe and predictable Hollywood fare. "Rush" isn't really far outside that wheelhouse, but it's quite a fast-paced and well made biopic.

Ron Howard's best film, and apart from Frost/Nixon (which I had almost forgotten) his first good film in at least a decade. The cast is wonderful, and the sound design and cinematography is exceptional. It's been a while since a film gave me this much of an adrenaline rush; My heart was in my throat for at least the last hour. The rivalry-friendship story at the core of this is what really makes it pop - I recommend the war film My Way to anyone who wants a similar experience.

You feel a bit sorry for Hemsworth & Brühl, who both give intense performances but don't have a script to really get their teeth into. And they're the only highlight; the rest feeling - in both tone and style - like a made-for-TV Sunday night job, full of dull dialogue and cheap visual effects. Plus the fact so much artistic licence has been taken with the story that as historical reference it's practically useless. Not a terrible film per se, but not worth two hours of your time either.

Howard does a good job, with the actual racing scenes being particularly impressive. It may be based on true events, but it feels like it was meant to be a movie. I liked it as just a character study, too - the different ways in which these two men approached the sport. Hemsworth and Bruhl both gave good performances. I think it's probably overrated by the public and underrated by the critics, but I definitely recommend it.

Rush is a great sports movie about a couple of rivals attempting to best each other in the sport of Formula One racing. It has two good lead characters played wonderfully by Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Brühl, and it makes F1 exciting, even if it could easily be dull. It's engaging, adrenaline-pumping, and surprisingly impartial in its portrayal of the real-life story of James Hunt and Niki Lauda.

If one doesn't know the actual events, this film has a most thrilling climax, keeping one on the edge of one's seat. The opposition between Lauda's cool thoroughness and Hunt's cool dash is perhaps a little heavy handed, but the film still delivers a sense of the kind of obsession needed to succeed at the highest levels of competition, and gives insight into why in the world of work managers make demons of their rivals.

Ron Howard is as bland a filmmaker as you can find, and this might very well be the best he's made. Damning with faint praise, sure, but that's probably not entirely fair. Hemsworth comes across as a buffer version of a young Peter O'Toole, but it's Bruhl who runs with it and is the heart of the film. Neither Lauda nor Hunt is shown as more than what the is, which is a flawed and competitive individual. This balance makes the film rise above the formula and the Howard trappings of blah.

The biggest problem with this movie is that Daniel Bruhl is so unbelievably good that he makes Hemsworth and his character mediocre by comparison. The man should have won an Oscar and he wasn't even nominated. Performances aside, this is a well shot, well edited and thoroughly competent film from Ron Howard, of all people. A great movie for everybody -- watch it with your girlfriend, your dog, your mom, in jail or on drugs.

Rush is a film I misjudged completely. Initially I assumed this was going to be a forgettable popcorn flick. Little did I know that it's actually based on a true story and further more has proved to be one of the best films of the year. I previously had no knowledge of the rivalry between Hunt & Lauda, but I now have great admiration for them both. Hemsworth & Bruhl are both brilliant, the cinematography is superb and the set pieces are visually stunning and intense. Possibly Ron Howard's best.

It's by no means easy to choose the part when watching the movie, I do not think that's the idea either. Something that raises the rating is that the actors played by Chris Hemsworth and Daniel Bruhl are very similar to the true character, which makes the story very credible. Is it fun that the very talented actor Daniel Bruhl gets the opportunity to show up, which may lead him to several major roles in the future? There are many who write that the film is about men, for men and made for men, b

Since its release, I don't think I've re-watched a movie more than Rush. Just thinking about Rush makes me want to watch Rush. Fuck yeah, Rush. Edit - Recent, revisit, Rush.

Enjoyed it, despite not giving a crap about the sport. I didn't even know what was gonna happen, having never heard of ... blonde dude, the name is gone again. Lauda was a much more interesting character, maybe the story should have focussed exclusively on him.

Rush supports my longstanding belief that Ron Howard is a smart director. Upon approaching a film about rival race car drivers, Howard paces the film tight and fast, never making us long for another exciting race sequence without sacrificing story. Said numerous racing scenes never get repetitive either; it's stylishly filmed with flashy transitions and the engines are appropriately deafening. Yeah, I liked this. I liked a film about racing. Keep doing what you're doing, Howard.

Intense racing complimented by wonderful colors and tight race photography. Unfortunately there is significant creative license employed to embellish the truth - rather aggravating given how much is factual.

It's a cookie cutter bio-drama, which is no surprise seeing as that's Ron Howard's bread and butter. Generic to the point of tedium. Life is too short for mediocre film/television

Brilliant entertainment and a superb adrenalin rush of a film, which starts out shallow and egotistical, but finishes solidly emotional; not only is there mutual respect between the two antagonists, but I would guess there would be deep respect for them both by the viewer. This is Howard's best film for a long time with fantastic editing, cinematography and sound. Daniel Bruhl was simply superb as Niki Lauda. The only thing that lets it down is the facile race commentary that acts as exposition

What in the first hour or so seems to be just another rivalry-story, of good versus bad, and hate fostering accident, actually turns out to be a lot more than that. So kudos to the script, just one of many fine dimensions of this film. Accidentally though, I'm not fond of the acting. Especially Daniel Brühl isn't at his best, trying a bit to hard to be very ... bitter. And, well, Chris Hemsworth's best just isn't very good. Luckily, it's mostly about the racing, and that

Howard set out to craft a compelling take on an epic rivalry set in a hedonistic age, one that's earned many critical raves. But the amount of explicit debauchery on display constitutes a waving red flag for moviegoers. (pluggedin.com)

Every shot translates the speed, adrenaline, and danger of the race. At any given moment the lead can change. And at any given moment, the driver can die.

After his strange, talentless doppelganger made The Dilemma, it's nice to see Ron Howard getting back to making real movies. I don't care about Formula 1, but I liked this film. (But though I give a 70 score to the film, I'd give like a 5 to its godawful trailer, which pretty much sums up and spoils every important beat of the entire film in two minutes.)

Really gets into the competitive drive. Fine acting by Bruhl and Hemsworth, the score by Zimmer sets the mood perfectly. So intensely competetive, I can relate. Bonus appearance by Margaery Tyrell as a hot nurse. - 2/4/14

Exciting and informative as any TV broadcast -- that means cameras everywhere and the usual intensity given by the narrators --, but what matters here is not Howard's view on history, which always looks attractive and never cinematically deep enough to overcome its production values. What really matters is the story of love and hate, of one man chasing the other with different strategies -- one is agressive, the other is scientific. I wasn't born yet, but F1 used to good, huh?

This is how I really like to see a "based on true events" movie go. It takes that source material and elevates it so that it really feels like a story worth telling. I hate to throw around the word "epic" like people too often do, but toward the end, that's really the kind of atmosphere that the movie sets up. Like some grand-scale legendary folk tale. How did this get zero Oscar nominations?
