The Art of Racing in the Rain

[bucks]

I've seen this book mentioned a few times on PH and have read the book, it's brilliant. I just hope the film can do it justice.

Due for release on 9th August 2019.

A dog named Enzo recalls the life lessons he has learned from his race car driving owner, Denny.

I love dogs and cars, so this is ideal.

If the dog ends up dying in the film though, I'm going to have to leave the cinema before I become a very teary mess.

Looks like it is on Disney (Star) as well, so can be viewed "on demand".

Will be watching tonight.

Spoiler alert, if you don't want to know what happens stop reading now!






































Well, that was a bit of a rollercoaster.

Don't worry about the dog dying though, it's the dying wife and the child being taken away as well! It does have a reasonably happy ending and there is a one hilarious moment when the dog deliberately eats a chilli pepper and poops on the carpet.

Could I recommend it? Just about, there is some cool racing footage and he drives a lovely 3.0 csi BMW, maybe 3 stars out of 5.

When I saw then title, I thought that sounds good, has promise. Reality, a load of over sentimental tosh, with few redeeming features.

Oliver, I think you are being somewhat kind giving it a 3!
