An endearing film that harks back to classic storytelling. Anthony Hopkins gives a nuanced and human portrayal of Bert Munro and the film is also populated by fully fleshed out, interesting supporting characters. It's a triumph of courage and will that will make you cheer by the end.

This is one of those over-looked gems. Hopkins is endearing as Burt Munro, the quirky New Zealander who defied all odds to set a world land-speed record. I found this movie quaint, touching, funny and triumphant.
