At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

OK so it is very one dimensional focusing on one team, but it says that on the tin. Surely Truth in 24 was as such? So I went in to this not expecting the next Senna or Rush or even Ti24, I went into it hoping to learn more about a small privateer team, an angle we often overlook at Le Mans, and that is exactly what I got, and in bucket loads. The cinematography was superb, the slow-mo shots breathtaking and images of Le Mans from angles I had never seen. So if you want all glitz and glamour with rivalry and stars maybe not for you, but if you like fast cars and beautiful images, with a good underdog story, then this is a must watch.

When you are a petrolhead, a 'journey to Le Mans' movie will get you interested. And I am a petrolhead, with some Le Mans experience, and I can tell you this is nothing like a Le Mans experience. It really is nothing more than a personal story of the Jota team. Must be great to see for friends and relatives of those involved in the Jota team, but why releasing it to the general public? It puzzles me. Considering it's not that interesting for petrolheads, fairly boring for motorsport enthousiast and straight-out insulting for documentary fans.Sure, getting Patrick Stewart (needs no introduction) and Tiff Needell (a car journalist) looks good on the poster, but honestly, the Jota LMP2 team is not that interesting. The documentary contains half kind of interviews with those involved, and half clips of racing action. Le Mans Radio audio-clips are edited to the racing video's to make sure you can follow what's going on with the Jota LMP2 team. The title of this documentary is misleading and don't get your hopes up about it's quality.

This was the perfect look into Le Mans. It wasn't a boring thing just talking tech like others I have seen made for TV, this had the cinema shots that made it feel like a film, while it was real and based in reality, the repetitive hard reality that took the view of the whole team. Nice to see it made by an indie most of these things are business things for corporates, this felt like a team of guys who just loved to race, meant more because of it. Seeing Le Mans from the inside when as a fan I have only seen it from the outside is very cool. It may not be one to watch with the girlfriend but for anyone who wants to see stunning cars and a team of nice guys pushing hard, Its a must see IMO. Will be watching again.

Sorry to say that this was not made by petrol heads and it showed. Too many close ups of neatly coiffured blokes and not enough of the engineering or racing. It would have been nice to have a full lap of in car footage, instead we were treated to a succession of close up's of people stood in the garage. The editing was constantly to quick (except when interviewing the frankly bland participants).A number of clips were used on more than one occasion (the exit from the pits behind a Chevrolet for example)which detracted from the continuity. Overall a big disappointment lacking depth and insight, it left me cold. The makers admitted in the question and answer session, following the premier, that they had not seen other racing based films and it showed. There was never any real tension created, even in the crash sequence, and at no time did I connect with the main character. If you are a true motor sport fan best give this limp offering a miss. Sorry.
