COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Superb Film and Score submitted by Daniel Saltzman on January 4, 2010, 2:06pm This movie is a classic. The scenes meld perfectly with the award-winning score by Vangelis, of which the main theme is in fact more famous than the actual movie. Watching the races is like being both a spectator and the protagonists at the same time, and you can't help but be utterly enthralled by the scenes. Wonderful, simply wonderful.

Understandably Classic submitted by steeny17 on July 4, 2022, 9:13am I'd been told to watch this classic film by enough people that I finally gave in... And I was not disappointed! Good themes, strong acting, and a solid script make this a timeless movie.
