Can we be done with the vocal fry singing already? H. E. R. was just not right for the role. Or simply can't sing without adding the silly little frills.

Josh Groban and Joshua Henry were the highlights of the show musically. Henry was stellar in the recent Into the Woods production and continues to wow.

However, overall it was a rather disjointed mess. The back and forth between animated and live action was distracting and we didn't get nearly enough of some characters like Martin Short and David Alan Grier.

But the part that made it laugh out loud bad was the guitar solo. Whichever creative head made that decision probably shouldn't be put in charge of anything.

Ron Howard I'm just disappointed in this one. Perhaps it was a victim of its time, but Rush has all the fast cuts, quick zooms and rapid pace angle changes that made movies like transformers nearly unwatchable. I literally had to take breaks from watching the movie because it was so annoying

The story on its own is great, Niki Lauda was a legend. But the acting can at times be a bit over the top.

Was really hoping for a movie that allowed the story to stand on its own.

Perhaps it's the change of times, and the fact that this movie is peak 80s, but what I was expecting to be an enjoyable revisit to a movie I enjoyed as a kid did not turn out as I expected. The main characters are overly stereotyped: the playboy actor Danson with a different lady every night, the handsome architect Selleck (the serious one of the bunch), and the goofy but lovable (although now it comes off a little creepy) artist Gutenberg. And the jokes just fall flat one after another. Couldn't make it more than halfway before stopping the movie.
