It required you to suspend some belief at times (rules wise), but genuinely doesn't need to be that realistic when the actual film making was that high level and fun in the racing scenes, it made you super invested to every shot and turn. Really well shot and done.
The plot isn't new, tho I liked how they used actual races and drivers fates as bases for several of them, mixed and matched a bit.
Tho only weak point of it all was the love interest story, but they didn't dwell on it, and both characters were likeable, so it's no big deal (it's contractual in movies like this). It didn't feel that cliche, more genuine. Only scene that felt cliche was the poker scene really.
I seen rush many years ago, and I definitely think this was better for sure. The actual racing scenes is so high level. Other movies may have better plot etc, but these super tense racing scenes carried the movie.
Its basically Maverick top gun (2nd one) but for racing (And maverick is super fun experience). Because the action scenes were peak. Which makes sense, because they said they consulted Tom Cruise for how to do the races, and The perfectionist daredevil told them to film it like this, exactly how it was in Maverick.
