Thanks Ilsuk!

Gran Turismo | Movie Reaction

Comments

This was amazing to watch in theaters (unfortunately, it was pretty empty both times I saw it in theaters, but I like it better that way 'cause more room for me 🤣🤣🤣). I really wish this movie got more attention, but it is what it is. It seems like many people on here haven't seen it either. In the movie theater, I was gripping the seat in front of me the whole time!

This is one of the best movies to have come out in the last five years hands down. I was so bummed that I didn't get to see it in theaters because even in my living room I was gripping my couch cushions in anticipation and excitement. David Harbour is hands down one of my favorite actors and even in this he was so complex but also you could really feel his passion for the sport and the racers. I wish Orlando Bloom had given a little more in his performance I felt like he was just kind of a wash. The kid that played Jann was incredible and I cannot wait to see what else he is in. 10/10 movie time!

Helen Moore

This is easily one of my favorite movies I've seen in the past few years and I'm so glad you enjoyed it! So, Jann was 19 when he qualified for GTA Academy. Fun fact: there were actually 2 earlier seasons of GTA Academy before Jann won season 3 of GTA Academy, so he wasn't the first sim racer to become a real racer, just the most well-known. Jack Salter (David Harbour; guy from Stranger Things) and Danny Moore (Orlando Bloom) were original characters just for the movie, but both characters are based on multiple people involved in the real life events. Jann really was involved in a crash that killed one spectator at Nurburgring (2015), but that actually happened 2 years after his podium finish at Le Mans. All the races in the film (including Le Mans, which really is a 24-hour race) are real races that Jann took part in. Audrey (Jann's in-film love interest) was created just for the movie. That scene with the crash literally took my breath away when I saw this in theaters (both times) and Archie Madekwe's acting when he finds out a spectator died absolutely crushed me 😭😭😭 The scene where Jann and his dad tell each other how proud they are of each other had me in a puddle! Just don't mind the guy bawling his eyes out in the theater! lol. I was one of the only people in the theater, though lol The progression of Jack and Jann's relationship was a beautiful thing to watch. Jack finding out that Jann was right about the brakes being glazed was a pivotal moment in their relationship and he literally becomes Jann's cheerleader from that point (I totally would've been mad if they declared Matty as the winner of the final race of GTA Academy, too). Apparently, Capa was a real-life antagonist for Jann and the real Jann says that Josha Stradowski does a fantastic job portraying Capa. I look forward to your reaction for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and I thoroughly enjoyed your reaction to Gran Turismo ❤️❤️❤️
