    Awesome

    This movie was dope and one of the best racing related movies I've seen in awhile. A long time friend put me on with drifting through GT to be exact. Miss the days of being able to actually go to a drift competition. The production that went into this was well thought out and it was a joy to watch. The driving scenes were all fast-paced and beautifully done without the need for any CGI nonsense. A classic underdog story which teaches to believe in one's self and also to never underestimate anybody for anyone can rise up and be a champion of something. Real drivers and real cars whats not to like? 100% recommend.

    Refreshed

    So refreshing to see a drift movie that's not cringe our outdated but involved the real world of what drifting currently realy is.. Over joyed to watch this seeing all my drift heroes present ♥

    And also it touches upon one of the greatest rising industries in motorsport!! Simulation!!!

    The future is going to be crazy.. I always have this theory that when cars phase out everyone's gonna be fully cracked onto the Sim.... So the earlier people solidify their names and presence into the Sim Drifting industry the better

    But besides that... Super happy about this one. Hope it catches onto the international world.

    the car movie we all needed

    This really is a great movie, 100% will become a cult classic soon if it hasnt already began...the driving shots are so spot on an some of the angles theyve achieved are remarkable. The director has captured some really amazing footage of the characteristics of how a car actually reacts in situations an it's beautiful. Nothing faked or CG'd, just pure automotive elegance.

    The story line is also a nice down to earth realistic tale, being a simracer and a amateur drifter, this movie is 1 that i could understand emotionally from start to finish.

    Its awesome to have people out there that still want to make movies like this.

    I freaking loved this movie's plot

    I have been involved with the drifting community for over a decade here in the states. In a million years I never wouldve though I would see such a honestly wholesome well written movie about drifting. It literally is about drifting. No crazy cgi, no crazy criminal gang war. Just a perfect story about the a young man, a team, and how driving has evolved. I saw alot of my personal experiences in the drifting community displayed on here. The driving is phenomenal. You feel like you're in the car with them. The cars sound exactly like they should. The anti-lag, turbos, blow off valves the tire sound exactly the way it does. Thank you for this awesome peice of work.

    The BEST Driving movie with a story line I've seen

    This is easily at the top of the list for an action movie that has driving with a story line. It captures the heart of those that grew up playing racing games and plucks the heartstrings of the dreamer in you of becoming a race car driver one day. The best parts are the ones that a normal person who doesn't know cars can understand but also someone who drives, and more importantly drifts, sees as an important detail in the driving. (We are all tired of 27 gear changes in a chase scene from the other movies) (NO SERIOUSLY!!) Overall, this is a great movie and can be appreciated by all who watch.
