Gran Turismo (12A): Leveraging Brian Eno-Rage to beat the Grand Pricks.

A One Mann’s Movies review of “Gran Turismo” (2023). “Grand Prix”; “Le Mans”; “Rush“; “Le Mans ’66” (aka “Ford v Ferrari”). There have been some cracking films based around the sport of motor-racing.

One Mann’s Movies Rating: A long time in the waiting (again) but “Black Widow” is an excellent addition to the Marvel canon: almost a “Rogue One” in the series, taking us back to fill in some gaps after “Captain America: Civil War”. It’s just great to … Read more
