Rush Movie Premiere

This is actually a very late blog post, apologies for the delay there are just so many things happening now and so many things coming in the future and so I am pretty busy but busy is good and there are so many events lined up I'm so excited! :) I won't be giving anything away yet but here are two clues: Neon and Sparks that's all I'm saying for now so here is the Rush Movie Premiere blog post!

Rivals. Chris Hemsworth as the English playboy James Hunt and Daniel Bruhl as the Austrian Perfectionist Niki Lauda. 

Last September 6, 2013 we were invited to an advanced screening of Rush at Rockwell. I really didn't think much of it and I just thought that it was your regular racing movie but looking deeper in the movie I realized just how wrong I was. 

It is mentioned in the movie that men love women but if there is something that they love more than women it is cars and I think that there is some truth to this as I have no interest in cars whatsover but Paul was all on the edge of his seat during the movie. Even if I'm not a big car fan i was very much impressed and enjoyed the movie Rush. You can check my upcoming movies blog post here. 

Rush tells the true story of one of Formula One's most fierce rivalries between Niki Lauda and James Hunt during the 1976 F1 World Championship. Not only does the story focus on their time on the track but the movie beautifully weaves in and out of their personal lives showing the two racers in a very human light. 

With award winning director Ron Howard at the helm it is no wonder how the movie can really transport you back in time and make you feel as if you really are in the 70s or on the very track where the cars would speed by all in a blur. From the blade of grass to the side of the road that flies up in the air as the cars race past Ron Howard gives you jaw dropping angles and camera motions that will really amaze you. I'll give you a tip- they actually mixed in actual footages of the original races in the movie to you that 'real' feel so watch out for that in the movie! 

Aside from the beautiful and masterful telling of the story, the story itself -true at that of how two rivals brought out the best in each one in the dangerous and competitive world of F1 racing. 

The ladies just love James Hunt. It is rumored that James Hunt slept with over 5,000 women. 

Aside from the beautiful story of rivals and the beautiful and artistic delivery of the story from Howard, I applaud the performance of the cast, especially Daniel Bruhl, who is both annoying and endearing as Niki Lauda. Watching Chris Hemsworth on the screen, I still can't get him as Thor off my head.

I got my eye on you. Niki Lauda staring down his Rival James Hunt before the start of the race. 

Depicting the rock and roll life of James Hunt, there were some nudity scenes in the movie, I would not recommend that you bring the little ones for this film. Aside from the nudity scenes, there is are a couple car crashes in the movie and some graphic injuries. I'm a nurse and I was squeamish with the injuries and hospital procedures. Of course all of it was important in the film, to portray the real danger that comes with the glam of Formula 1 racing.

Nothing is more fulfilling than being able to do a good deed while having fun at it- and that is exactly what you can do and more when you head over the BGC Wheel for Wheels Auto Show! 

Not only will the Car show be filled with amazing top of the line cars, booths for car paraphernalia, beautiful babes (basically anything that can make a guy smile) but by going to this Car show you also get to help our brothers and sisters from Tahanan Walang Hagdahan Inc., since 100% of the proceeds - YES! 100% of the proceeds will be going to them.  

To be more specific, the proceeds of the event will help fund the the construction of Tahanan Walang Hagdanan's proposed powder-coating facility which will support the livelihood of our brothers and sisters. It's great since it's going to be a 'Teach a man how to fish, instead of giving them the fish' kind of deal.  :)
