Group B
(2015)

Good but too short, and too dramatic.
This movie nails two of the most important aspects of the group B era. The sound, and the fear. People were constantly crashing and dying. We now know its basically impossible to Drive that fast in those places (so the fia says...). The movie really nails that with the vibe it has. The cars are beautiful and the way he prepares and operates it looks authentic.

Where this movie falls off is in the measly run time of 26 minutes. For a movie that has to be bought for $3 I want more group b in my group b. By the time it gets to the good stuff were out of time ( you do get to see some amazing on board shots and exterior that do the car justice) but still. The second is that the actors are your typical grad film actors. Great at being super serious and super sad and that's it, granted its fitting here. It still gets old fast and the almost video game level silent character in real life wouldn't be let behind the wheel of a moped let alone a 800bhp death machine... Also the co driver is such a wasted character. You think crazy boy is scared what about the guy who's life is in crazy boys hands, but instead he just mopes around because hes not crazy boys lover co driver.

rant over.

This movie is okay. If you love the group B era this scratches that itch until Hollywood can finally give us a proper rally movie. If you want a masterful telling of the trials of the Bs then probably save that $3
