Went yesterday and I really enjoyed it. Of course Hollywood takes liberties with the story but overall I thought it a good movie that should also be very satisfying to non racing fans. Also a good tribute to Ken Miles. As a geek I appreciated the authentic sixties look and feel of the Le Mans track, and I recognized which turns they were depicting, even the Daytona roadcourse chikane.

Wife and I went to see this yesterday. We both loved it, really great movie.
Grand Prix has always had the best cinematography, Le Mans is more about pure racing, Rush had a good and true story about drivers. This movie combines it all really well and easily has the best story in a racing movie.
Very well cast, great performances and very believable even if some might be dramatized.
I did notice some CGI, but what was noticeable was never key to the scene. During Le Mans, it looked like some racing lights were digitally added to a real shot of the course. No big deal. As for the action, I couldn't tell what was real vs cgi. SURELY some had to be for practical purposes, but it's so well done that I really don't care.
I knew the story about the GT40, Henry Ford II and Shelby, but I didn't know Ken Miles story, just his name. This was a really great flick IMO.
I have movie posters for Grand Prix and Le Mans on my wall, I may have to get this one to go with them one day.

Ok this is weird, I see the embedded video in my post in the quote box but not when I go back to the original post on the first page.

Same. Shows in quote but not original.
