I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Excellent adaptation.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

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

Let me start by saying, this is an absolutely wonderful film about a truly exceptional family. It's hardly perfect, but a beautiful tribute non-the-less. It starts off exciting, drags a little in the middle, and the last half hour becomes truly epic. In comparison to a film like Senna (which I truly love in almost every respect) it won't have the flair or fast paced manner, however, the subject matter here is so much more dangerous, and in some ways more exciting. There is tragedy within the film, but there is so much more. It feels a little too lengthy but I promise the payout is there in the end. If you're not moved by the end then you have no soul. Please enjoy and spread the word, its worthwhile.

This is a powerful and very moving film excellently and subtly narrated by Liam Neeson. The film is about 2 sets of brothers, Joey (Yer Maun) & Robert Dunlop and Robert's sons William & Michael. These men are probably the greatest motorcycle road racers of all time. Motorcycle road racing is without doubt one of the most dangerous sports in the world today where even the smallest error can be fatal. This movie captures some amazing and thrilling footage of the riders in action on Irish country roads and on the legendary Isle Of Man TT Course, there are also many fascinating interviews with the riders, their families, friends and their mechanics. This can at times be a hard movie to watch, it's hard not to shed a tear at some of the incidents shown. Liam Neson's narration is of the "less is more" variety, intelligently it lets the riders and the pictures do the talking. A must see, even for those who are not fans of motor sport.

There had been a Joey Dunlop documentary on BT Sports earlier this year, which had centred solely on Joey himself. This documentary expanded on the Dunlop family dynasty with brother Robert and his sons Michael and William who are both still active in the sport.You'll get most from this film if you're a road-race fan, MotoGp fan, biker or simply a fan of motor sports in general. It's the heartfelt and intensively emotional interviews with the family and friends of Joey and Robert that make this so engrossing just from the human interest element alone.The final crash footage towards the end of this documentary was so gut wrenchingly sad. The subsequent insistence of both sons to continue racing 2 days later was just mind-blowing.This is a real-life story that just holds your attention from start to finish.

With the slick, bombastic intro slowly building towards an orgiastic climax, I expected this movie to be moving and transfixing along the lines of "Senna"—but ultimately, it's a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing. As the expertly-edited intro credits fade to the narrative about a two-generation Irish driving dynasty, there is little here to keep the interest of a viewer who isn't already familiar with—or better yet, a superfan of—these Irish road warriors. Ear-splitting audio effects sharply intercut the standard talking-heads interviews, and I began to question whether Liam Neeson's sturdy- but-sonambulistic voice-over work wasn't hampering the narrative, as I struggled to understand why I should care about this particular family over any other Irish motorcycling daredevils.The odd crash excites, but the crash footage is oddly bloodless and, as much as the filmmakers try to demonstrate what the thrilling reality of driving a back at such a breakneck speed is like, there's isn't much evidence of what happens to the human body during one of these high-speed disasters. Much like the toothless "Formula 1", this is a great documentary, if you already follow the subject, and get aroused simply by the noise and thunder of engines and exciting footage. Unlike its spiritual cousin (and, I suspect, inspiration for all moto-docs since) "Senna", this film lacks the heart and effective explication of the sport to casual viewers that creates a memorable, moving documentary. Rent "Senna", unless you're an Irish Moto fan.
