"This is an amazing film!
The acting is amazing especially Christian Bales performance as Ken Miles.
The story was great and the cinematography was perfect. The ending although sad was very impressive and well made. My favourite scene was when the Ford GT40 over took the Ferrari 330 P3.
Overall this was a perfect movie with a great story, soundtrack, writing, acting and cinematography.
6/5"
