Rush [Blu-ray]

Thank you!

Never got to see the movie because the DVD was Region 2, not Region 1, where I have lived all my life. This is the third instance of receiving a non-Region 1 Blu Ray disc from Amazon. Looking at the product description, it was absolutely not clear at all that this is what was being promoted. Yes, there is a disclaimer buried in the upper third of the product description, but I have to ask: What is the value of selling a product to a resident of Region 1 that will not work in Region 1? Not everyone owns an off-brand, open-region DVD player. Either list the region-specific nature of the DVD in the header, or restrict the sale of this product to its specific region ONLY.

I ordered the DVD three times and was told they would play on a Blu-ray player and the first two said the would play in all regions. We went and bought a DVD player for all regions and it did not play. The third try was successful. Love the video though. If you enjoy Formula 1, you will enjoy this.

Just gave this as a gift to my husband. I am very disappointed to find out that this disc does not play on my Blu-ray player. I had no idea that there were US blu-ray discs & European ones. Now I have a movie that's opened, that I can't play AND I have to buy another disc.

Not a great film over all .. great concept .. good characters.. lacking any substance .. needs a better director / writer .., It’s a shame ..

I did not know this DVD came from England and I live in the US. When it came in for my brother, he tried to use it but could not it would not work in his DVD player. I have to send this back and make sure to get one that is from the US.

Was not made aware of the B-2 warning - stating it would not play on some Blue Ray players? We could not view this movie, very disappointing; and want to return it. Please advise.

sold by an outfit in UK. this cannot be played on any player in the U.S. you think they would have mentioned that in ad....

When this film came out initially it didn’t interest me. I tell a lie; the myth of the James Hunt / Niki Lauda rivalry meant nothing to me but as one who had grown up around a Formula One obsessed Dad, I knew the names well. No huge draw to me though, but still sounded an interesting biography. Now a couple of years on how glad I am that that I finally had the chance to watch this on the off-chance it would be entertaining. It was everything I expected and more. From the opening minutes I was won over by Chris Hemsworth and the brilliant Daniel Brühl as Hunt and Lauda. They immediately portrayed their characters in relevance to the sport and the era of the 1970s perfectly and they hooked me, with their electric chemistry evident from the start which is the foundation for this film to work. Both actors are superb in being totally different men but fuelled by the same thing; winning. Director Ron Howard crafts a faithful look to the 1970s racing circuit as I would expect, with the locations and characters just how I would imagine. It looked natural and authentic with no evident sugar-coated Hollywood touches. It could have passed as an expensive documentary rather than a multi-million dollar biog. It’s clear from this look that the money has gone into the details, such as the racing cars themselves and the set design, once again evoking a truly authentic look. And never mind the look; the sound is superb! The diegetic engines roaring to life were like nothing I’ve heard before. Howard captures the world of Formula One racing and those involved in it, really surrounding you with a sense of how it felt to be in the racing pits or spectator stands. The soundtrack by Hans Zimmer at times is TOO much like a ‘Batman Begins’ nod, but that can be overlooked on the fact his music is superb anyway, and mixed with the literally nail-biting racing sequences and drama played out, it accompanies the visuals perfectly. The cinematography in the racing sequences are fantastic, from the tight camera angles of the racers to the claustrophobic confines of the racing helmets themselves, it’s the big and small detail that paints a picture of the world Hunt and Lauda lived in, and fuelled them in a life or death sport. The racing is breath-taking even if you know the outcome or not, and thankfully I didn’t and so was as hooked as audiences would have been in the 70s, and I know I could watch this again and still feel it thanks for the authenticity of this masterpiece. Winning performances, exceptional direction and a world created with great detail and passion make this a stand-out film that isn’t just aimed at sports fans, but those who love great drama and tension from their films.

parfait
