Rush the movie brought back pleasant memory that are strong in competitive nature between car and human though unreasonable to grammatically correct a silly mistake which brings roots. Roots like found in this 'Hemsworthian' movie brought strong dislike to driving fast on roads and being surpassed by strange biker who had a person at the back who was on the cell phone.
Realty that a review needs to please the reader enough to acknowledge the off chance opportunity of selecting to watch a movie based on reviews rather than watch what is available or the entire release list found in the first world countries.
First world review might need several pages from 'the five C's of cinematography' but to like and recommend a movie takes patience over attendance in cinema halls or movie 'marathons'. The movie 'Rush' needs to be viewed as a movie about sports and considered in the light of those achievements like in the Grand Prix circle where Lewis Hamilton is fifth in the lead up to the Hungarian Grand Prix or the circuit at Hungary who is a poor nation.

A great rivalry thoroughly dissected and cunningly brought to film. The first scenes were cleverly written and directed to introduce to us our two protagonists. Just a little over 5 minutes into the film and we already know what kind of people James Hunt (Chris Hemsworth) and Nikki Lauda (Daniel Duhl) are. So much so that after James Hunt is making out and having shower sex with Nurse Gemma (Natalie Dormer), we don't expect to see her again. And Ron Howard does well to let it spontaneously pass and not fuss over any details because letting it pass like that further builds Hunt's character. More importantly, however, is the build of the rivalry between Hunt and Lauda. Chris Hemsworth delivers by far his best performance in perfectly depicting Hunt's arrogance, cockiness and charisma. Daniel Bruhl also does a fascinating job in portraying Nikki Lauda. While the two characters may be on opposite ends of the spectrum, their rivalry pushes them to evolve and be anywhere on the spectrum if it means winning. While their fundamentals and core foundations do not change, everything else does. As these changes unfold the rivalry becomes stronger and stronger and the races ever more intense. The cinematography is notable and was indeed complementary to this film's immersion especially on the race track. The races were shot splendidly and conveyed the tension, ferocity, and thrill of the races. The brief shots from the driver's helmets were brilliant and gave the audience a feeling of subjectivity. I've seen a couple of movies that featured races and such, but never did any give me such an adrenaline rush. This, I think, is the result of amazing camera-work, powerful performances and of course masterful directing.
