Making this documentary in 3D was a waste of money which could have been better spent on subtitles. It follows the 2010 campaign by Guy Martin and his new sponsor to win the Isle of Man TT race.

What’s the Isle of Man TT? It’s an annual motorcycle festival considered so dangerous by a bunch of soft cocks that it was removed from the GP series. There are six events held over 7 days that are each four laps of the island which is 252 km. On average, every year, two riders die. Google it. Be amazed.

If you ride motorbikes you must see this movie. And if you think you have some skills when it comes to riding this movie not so gently reminds you that your skills are barely above those of a caveman discovering fire compared to Einstein spitting the atom.

Guy Martin is a the loveable larikin of the motorcycling world. He is from England but speaks some weird ass dialect that only his mother could understand. Again, subtitles would have been good. They guys that ride TT are obsessed. Being the fastest here makes you the fastest anywhere. And the bravest; going into corners where you can’t see the exit with your right wrist twisted all the way down, left foot ratcheting down to top gear (race bikes gears are opposite to street bikes) and no thought of braking. All for a piece of tin and some cash.

While this is a doco the story is compelling and unless you know the results of the 2010 TT race then get thee to a venue where you can rent or download is as soon as possible.
