Been off work with man flu for the last couple of days generally getting pretty bored, Well today I managed to watch Fastest the movie (yesterday was better as that was the TT flick) Now I decided against posting about the TT flick as rightly so everybody knows it's a bloody good film and those boys deserve the spotlight. However........ Fastest THE MOVIE was another story all together. Now don't get me wrong, I'm no Barry Norman and I'm not saying it's crap.....but if your not a 200% dayglo wearing, number 46 sporting Rossi-ette then be prepared...... If the film maker EVER decides to crawl back out of MR V Rossi's anus during the next year I'd be surprised, how one sided can you make a movie is beyond me and I felt physically embarrassed at times simply down to Ewan mcgregors narrative and how it oozed brown nosing of the highest calibre........suit you sir. Oh your just AMAZING sir....and so on That said some of it is really well worth watching, some bits make me laugh and there's some quite interesting parts. But in the main it's all about how great Rossi is............. and for me that's a pity cos we all know that don't we? so why waste our time going over old ground......... Sigh :bad::bad:
But thats quite clear before you watch it, its the story of the GOAT and the amazing feats of recovery he went through. If you want his best film, watch faster (the original in the series) and The Doctor, Tornado & Kentucky Kid.
RDP's recovery was also brilliant, but wasnt anywhere as near as serious as Rossis, and before you say it, im no rossi fanboi, Im probably the Biggest Stoner fan ever, even before he rode for the big h
I thought it was the same break, two bones with RDP....he's hard as nails For the record I'm also a HUUUUGE stoner fan, but one thing this movie does is paint him as an inconsistent rider who can't take the pressure , and yes it's even edited that way hence my annoyance.
I think if it came down to a fist fight in a Bulgarian boozer, RDP would kick VR's backside.....if he could catch him 1st that is. But they race bikes.
