Well....
I watched the trailer and it looks like a lot of fun, perhaps not very accurate but a good old Hollywood version of some historical event.

I read the book from a few years back that I was told the movie was going to be based on and it's a good read, I do recommend it. I felt it might have been a bit biased but it's still very good. Names, dates, places the author had some really good access to original source material and people for sure.

Apparently the makers of this movie have erased any connections to Mr. Blaine's book so I am sure they will be playing fast and loose with the facts too.

I will go and see it, perhaps more than twice as I am sure the racing scenes will be more than incredible given modern film techniques. So count me a looking forward to it just for the spectacle of it all.

You build what you like and I will build what I like...it's all good
