A good movie

Honestly, I have never been a fan of Formula 1, as a matter of fact, I always thought it was one of the most boring sports on earth (and I'm from Le Mans!). Still, since this movie has some huge ratings (8.6 on Imdb and 8.2 on Listal), I thought I should give it a try anyway. I do remember Senna but mostly his last years when he was struggling at Williams and, of course, I remember when he died. I heard about the rivalry between him and Prost but I was too young when it actually happened. Eventually, I thought it was a pretty good flick with some thrilling racing sequences and lots of drama and tragedy. When I was a kid, I never really understood what was all the fuss about this guy. ok, he won 3 championships.... Big deal! Prost has won 4 of them, Schumacher has won 7 titles but somehow, Arton Senna is more legendary than many other drivers. Well, thanks to this movie, I understand it a little bit more. Basically, he was extremely talented, a nice looking man with a good heart (if you believe what they tell you here), there was also this fascinating rivalry with Alain Prost and, finally, he died at only 34 years old when he was still a great competitor. The weakest point in this flick would be that you never really learn much about the man himself who remains rather a mystery. Still, even though I don't even like this sport, I thought it was a rather spellbinding documentary and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
