Wonderful character development!

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Brilliantly made movie, not just for people into racing but for everyone. It tells it from the point of view of the people who make this sport awesome-The Riders. Awesomely made.The story line is also very good with a record being broken at the end also all the main characters that they have shown at the end end up in the hospital shows how dangerous it is of all the sports.This movie shows the true story without any edits and makes it stand out wonderfully. If you are true racing fan you are gonna enjoy it even more. Very different from all the mainstream Hollywood racing movies which brings in different angles of crime.This is unlike those, concentrates on purely the sport and racing.Its All about racing in this movie.

I so wanted to like this having heard nothing but great things about it from biker friends and even non-bikers that had seen it, that I was feeling a little apprehensive when I finally sat down to watch it. I shouldn't have worried as even with the weight of that expectation, what a treat! What a fantastically well told account of the build up to and the actual TT races themselves one particularly year in it's history. Told with such human interest from a range of characters including the wonderfully maverick and unintentionally comic Guy Martin, the world record setting Ian Hutchinson and the TT legend that is Jon McGuinness amongst others, TT3D CTTE is a superb film on every level. Beautifully shot, high octane pace, great characters and back stories and I have to say a sensitive and thoughtful approach to the tragic events that year. The tagline says something about not being alive just because you're breathing, and bike fan or not how true is that? It's been 20 years since I made a boyhood trip to the TT but the memory of the thrill remains and it's now on my to do list once again. Laugh out loud highlight for me was Guy's explanation of what he would find "unbelievable". That's worth the price of the DVD alone.If you liked "Senna" and/or you have an ounce of adrenalin in your body, whether or not you think you're interested in bikes or the TT, watch this film. You'll love it. 10/10

Forget that it's a documentary, forget that it's about motorbike racing, this is simply a fantastic movie, with more tension and heart than almost anything I've seen on the screen this year - or any year.Sometimes a documentary really captures the human condition the way feature films find it hard to do. It happened in Anvil:The Story of Anvil and it happens in TT3D. I defy anyone not to fall in love with this movie within minutes of the opening shots, which are possibly the only poor shots in the film - rider-eye-views of the TT track which should have been terrifying but which suffer for the lack of a horizon in the framing. At this point your girlfriend might be excused for wondering whether she could drag you out of TT3D and into Pirates of the Caribbean before she misses a single frame of Johnny Depp.But these moments are brief, and as soon as Guy Martin pops onto the screen with his eccentric, selfish, bawdy, but strangely innocent, obsession about winning a TT race, you know you're in for an amazing ride, and so it proves. With just the right mix of characters, contemporaneous footage and vintage thrills and spills, TT3D takes you on an incredible journey into a place where glory is often harder to come by than death.Like Anvil and the outstanding The World's Fastest Indian, this is a movie that transcends its subject matter and takes you on a white-knuckle ride through the Isle and the soul of Man.

This is an outstanding study into the psychology and mindset of sportsmen who push themselves to the limit (sometimes paying the ultimate price) in this legendary race. In much the same way you didn't have to be a tightrope walker to enjoy 'Man on Wire', don't make the mistake of thinking you have to be a motorcycle fan to enjoy this film. The pacing and editing is first rate, and the on board action is heart stoppingly exciting. You have to keep telling yourself that the film is not sped up, and that they really are riding through those narrow streets at up to 200mph. The film is at times hilarious, exciting, tragic and life affirming. An amazing piece of work and highly recommended.
