Doesn't deserve the ho-hum reviews.

Gran Turismo is a biopic about Jann Mardenborough(Archie Madekwe). Jann is one of the best players of the Gran Turismo video game & also dreams of becoming a real race car driver, someday. A motorsport executive named Danny Moore(Orlando Bloom) gives him this chance & Jann gets the help of former race car driver Jack Salter(David Harbour), to help him achieve his lifelong goal.

Gran Turismo is an awe-inspiring film. Director Neill Blomkamp has gone past his sci-fi roots & given us a movie that is an absolute treat for fans of racing films & inspirational biopics. The racing set pieces are mind-blowing & are further enhanced in IMAX. David Harbour is phenomenal as Jack Salter. Orlando Bloom is brilliant as Danny Moore. Archie Madekwe is spectacular as Jann Mardenborough. This is Madekwe's breakout role & he will have a long & varied acting career. Darren Barnet is awesome as Matty Davis. Djimon Hounsou & Gerri Horner are brilliant as Steve Mardenborough & Lesley Mardenborough, respectively. Josha Stradowski is perfect as Nicholas Capa. The supporting cast is impressive. Gran Turismo is a must watch for racing movie aficionados. Watch it on the biggest screen possible & have a whale of a time!
