Hit the apex

Anyone going to see it tonight? Mark Neale doing another behind the scenes film for a one off showing. Out on DVD next week

[Reardy Mister]

Terrible, cheesy title but I will watch it eventually, if only for completeness. Probably on DVD, mainly because I think it will be a film designed to make MotoGP appeal to the masses, which means I will hate it. The clips shown during the British GP made me cringe, especially the narration.

Is it out on DVD now ?

[SMar]

On the 7th Sept, apparently

[Tim85]

Think I'm gonna go to Leeds to watch it. .Something to do on an otherwise boring wednesday night.

I've seen the ads for it and it seems super-cheesy. Brad Pitt as narrator seems like a bizarre choice. I reckon it'll be "Moto GP for Dummies" but happy to hear people's views and be corrected.

Not defending their choice but Pitt has been seen at many MotoGP races more so than most others mainstream celebs.

seems like a decent choice,

[FartKong]

Apparently he's a huge fan and watches all the races. I hope its good and not some dumbed down crap.

At least its not Charlie "ooooh that's amazing" BoreMan.

mmmmmm Brad Pitt, I would

[Fleegle]

Or Henry 'bore for Britain' Cole

Seen it.

I was at the premier at Silverstone on Friday night, I enjoyed it, it shows MotoGP for what it is, warts and all!! The Director, Mark Neale was there and did a Q&A session after the film, and yes he is a biker! Colin Edwards was also there.

[Mastodon2]

I'd rather it was Ewan McGregor narrating, but I'll make sure I see it all the same.

[WaferThinHam]

I was upset by the sound. Seemed like they'd dubbed F1 car noises over the trailer. I'll probably wait until a stream pops up for it, or give the DVD a bash.

[eddd1e]

Went to watch it at the cinema tonight, thought it was very good.

[obscene]

Got to say, well worth the money. Was very long and detailed. Once again, great work by Mark Neale.

[LoonR1]

Why not Keanu Reeves? He's a total bike petrolhead and even did the flag waving at Suzuka, along with a (super cheesy) lap ahead of the race.

Went to see it tonight and really enjoyed it.

Following moto gp I knew where it was going but it had some great insights as well(without wanting to give much away for anyone going).

My non biking mates really need enjoyed it as well.

Enjoyed it enough to want to pick it up on DVD as well when its released.

I watched it last night and didn't think much of it to be honest. It was just a couple of seasons in review with a few exclusive interviews thrown in. It was enjoyable and worth grabbing on dvd and not sure what I expected really. When the producer came on at the beginning and said he wanted to do something different than faster and fastest I was quite excited, but it was practically the same just a different year. If anyone's been to see the isuperbiker films it's basically the same as those as well. Having watched the seasons religiously there was very little I hadn't seen before. The marco stuff was great though and I did have a lump in my throat.
