With Brad Pitt & Top Gun: Maverick Director, Joseph Kosinski returning for F1, Tara & Andrew RACE to give their Rush Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review!!

Andrew Gordon & Tara Erickson shift into high gear with their Reaction & Review of Rush (2013), the biographical sports drama directed by Academy Award winner Ron Howard (Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind) and written by Peter Morgan (The Queen, Frost/Nixon). Set against the high-octane world of 1970s Formula One racing, Rush chronicles the legendary rivalry between two of the sport’s greatest drivers: charismatic British playboy James Hunt and methodical Austrian perfectionist Niki Lauda.

Chris Hemsworth (Thor, Extraction) stars as James Hunt, delivering a fiery performance that captures the driver’s recklessness, charm, and relentless need to win. Daniel Brühl (Inglourious Basterds, The Alienist) earned critical acclaim for his portrayal of Niki Lauda, showcasing the driver’s steely discipline and resilience—especially in the aftermath of the horrifying 1976 Nürburgring crash that nearly cost him his life. Olivia Wilde (Don’t Worry Darling, House) plays Suzy Miller, Hunt’s model wife whose relationship becomes strained amid fame and obsession.

Key moments include the gripping recreation of Lauda’s near-fatal accident, the intense final race in monsoon conditions at the Japanese Grand Prix, and the emotional reckoning between the rivals as they come to respect each other’s passion and purpose. With breathtaking racing sequences, sharp character contrasts, and emotional depth, Rush is not just about the sport—it’s about the psychology of greatness, ego, and survival.
