Movie Review: The Fastest Indian
Summary: 4 Stars
A real surpirse. This one hit the theaters and was gone so fast I didn't have the privilege of seeing it on the big screen. Anthony Hopkins at his heartwarming best. An endearing story about a ordinary guy who has an extraordinary talent for loving life, people and engines. Hopkins travels from his home in New Zealand with steely determination to race at the salt flats in California. He meets a long string of wonderful people all of whom are only too happy to help him through the day. The movie is a study, albeit a bit Pollyanna, of the best of humanity's children. A great story, don't let this surprise pass you by. I'll watch it over and over.
Movie Review: I'm so glad I watched this movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband is big into motorcycles so when he suggested watching this movie I was less than enthused. I am so glad I watched it with him! It was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time!
It's about Burt Munro who travels to the US from New Zealand to race his 1920 Indian motorcycle at the salt flats. Munro hits a few snags along the way trying to get there. The whole time you're cheering him on just for him to run into another obstacle. I laughed a lot watching this movie because this man made friends so easily (and quickly) with everyone, from a transvestite to an old woman living by herself to an Indian that gives him dog balls to help with his prostate. I had a big smile on my face and the best feeling after watching this movie. I'm also really glad (as is my husband) that I got a chance to see Anthony Hopkins play a role that is more pleasant. At first all we could do was picture him in Silence of the Lambs so it was a nice change of pace.
So if you're a motorcycle fan, an Anthony Hopkins fan or just want to see a "make you feel good" inspirational movie, this is the movie for you! Enjoy!
And just to add, I rarely ever buy movies. I have to absolutely love a movie before I spend my money buying it. I'm actually going to buy this one and make my husband think I bought it for his birthday!
Movie Review: Excellent!!!

Summary: 5 Stars
As a youngster crazy about motorcycles [Indians in particular] I recall reading about Burt Munro and his record breaking antique Indian. It seemed surreal that Burt would be running an Indian at Bonneville long after the Indian brand had met its demise, and setting impressive records. The film does justice to a great true adventure. Burt merited to be portrayed by a front line actor like Anthony Hopkins. The result is a masterpiece. Movie Review: The World's Fastest Indian

A wonderful heartwarming story for anyone with an interest in racing. This true story was recommended to us by our son, and my husband thinks it is a great flick to share.
