    Falling asleep in the second half, the director sucks in many places, and the fake actors are ok

    An inspirational film that teaches people to never give up. In the racetrack, I felt the speed and passion that could not be felt in countless drag racing movies. It's worth watching, but it's a bit too far ahead, and the movie's conception is general.
