What an amazing depiction of Niki Lauda and James Hunt’s rivalry wonderfully put together by Ron Howard. Some really good themes underlying in this movie besides F1.

Whiplash 2014
Still too, too good. The final act is one for the ages.
Excellence, can lead to obsession. Lack of awareness can be so costly in this world.
Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons’ chemistry is just so very good.
The scene of Andrew’s dad running to get him hits me every time.
I just love this movie wholeheartedly. -
Frost/Nixon 2008
What a riveting match between Frost and Nixon elevated by Michael Sheen and Frank Langella’s performances.

Thirteen Lives 2022
What a remarkable story. This happened during the 2018 FIFA World Cup, and I did not have a clue about these events back then.
I think Ron Howard was the perfect man to direct this film. He directs it with such steadiness and builds it up good enough toward the conclusion. The underwater filmmaking was truly impressive; and the dialogue, tension and leadership from our phenomenal leads stands out. Some may think that the film does not soar enough, and that it may be dry, but Howard makes it compelling and emotional enough that it pays off. -
Bullet Train 2022
This movie was a blast! Several surprise cameos.
Brad Pitt just has a lot of fun in this movie. Thought the cast was great overall, loved Aaron Taylor-Johnson.One-setting movies can be tough if it’s not paced well enough and its dialogue is not as engaging. Thought this film did well on both of those factors. Once you enter the train you gotta buckle up.
Very witty, fun, and great action sequences!
