I can't recommend this film highly enough for those who love human drama, winning against all the odds or motorcycles.

Not only is the main idea engaging but the path there is fascinating, a story in itself.

Anthony Hopkins is in fine form and far from the stuffy, British gents he usually plays. He gives his character flesh and blood and you are glad to get to know him.

Love of motorcycles drives this film, but you don't have to be a fan of the two wheels to enjoy this piece. You just have to appreciate how love, devotion and drive can make a dream come true.

A great film to share with Mum and Dad.

Yes this is a good film..
And Im not a bike fan at all....

Lucky this is about Burt Munro & his trip here more than about motorbikes...

I should add that I remember the Burma Shave signs when I was a kid & my family traveled for summer vacation.

Also I remember before the 80s when Americans actualy were kind polite & considerate of others...
Man is THAT long gone now..LOL
