Chris Stuckmann reviews Gran Turismo, starring David Harbour, Orlando Bloom, Archie Madekwe, Djimon Hounsou, Geri Horner. Directed by Neill Blomkamp.
David Harbour’s character going from “disgusted to be here” to “you made me a believer” felt like my own journey with this movie
Me too. At the beginning of the film I hated all gamers. But then I realized that gamers who turn into athletes can actually be OK! I'm glad I matured so much with the movie

@@spewsideways169 it’s another gear from Hopper that I think he could play for the next couple of years
The mechanic was awesome. He carried the movie.
My favorite part was at the Le Mans race, when Jack salter told Jann he was 6 seconds behind capa and it transitioned to capa zooming off then Jann came exactly 6 seconds later.
Such details make the movie a masterpiece.
Loved that part
💯 percent
Liked that part, but didn't like them using Hungaroring for 80% of the scenes in the Le Mans chapter
@@EdDeezNuts944 it was to cut costs I guess
Hungary is known for it’s cheap prices regarding movie production
as a Hungarian I was delighted to see it, but yeah, they should’ve used Le Mans for the whole chapter
and other details like the cuts between corners making absolutely no sense??? lmao
Lets take a moment to just appreciate the OST of the original game.
They didn’t have to go so hard on menu music, but they did.
Moon over the castle was what brought me to even look into Gran Turismo. That organ version of the track on 7 is incredible.
What do you expect from Lorne Balfe? The man always brings his A-Game!
The original original OST? Or the shitty American version that we got in the US that removed Moon Over The Castle with some shitty licensed track?
I hope you're talking about the japan/asia version of OST. Not pissing the US track listing but Masahiro Andoh compose beautiful music
@@TheOrisya yeah i don’t give a single fuck about the Japanese release.
Im from North America, i played that game and couldn’t care about a missing track I’ve never heard.
Guess what? Thats not a song i care about.
But sure, pretend im talking about that, just so you guys will shut up about it
I was so surprised with how this movie turned out. I NEVER expected to get emotional watching it. I was so tired of seeing the trailer for it tbh, but my expectations were pretty low to mid. I thought it looked fine.
I’m glad that I left pumped, inspired, and happy. It had so much more heart than I thought it would. It’s not perfect, but I think it’s actually very good. Most surprising of the year so far for me.
Chris grew up with Gran Turismo
@kishenkoolskills90 Ford V Ferrari is still top tier. One of my favorite movies. I cry every single time.
This was actually a really good movie!! I really enjoyed watching it. ❤
That one Djimon Hounsou scene also made me tear up.
100%
I'm going to go see it just to support my boy Bloomkamp. Been waiting for another film from him and I hope he gets another chance to do sci-fi.
It'd be interesting if he makes an Alien or Predator movie
@RememberMe911 bro he was going make an Alien movie then they cancelled it
Imagine if he makes a Half Life movie
I just got out of the theater. I was quite surprised with how engaged and immersed I was in both the story and the racing sequences. Very entertaining. Good job to Neil Blomkamp and the rest of the cast/crew. An enjoyable capper to the summer season.
no it sucked
@@steveb7932no it was good. You are the one who sucked the diddle
@@steveb7932No it sucked*
Maybe this is exactly what Blomkamp needed right now. Hoping he has a really bright future as a Director I love all of his movies.
Even Demonic? That was a crap fest...
@@lupolinarI loved Demonic, it was different, trippy, and hit trauma well. Then again I have Neil’s balls far past my esophagus so anything he does is great to me😅
@kishenkoolskills90Blomkamp alien movie would be elite
Thanks for sharing that wonderful image that I now want erased from my brain.
A new Robocop would be better, it's been almost a decade since the reboot. I would prefer something that's more like the original. He's already proven himself to be good with mechs and robots. @kishenkoolskills90
This is the best theatre experience I’ve had all year. My audience was gasping 😱 crying and cheering.
Agreed. I loved some of the other movies I've seen this year, but nothing had me aching for more like this one did.
My family is probably annoyed I won't shut up about how much I liked it and "If any of you guys want to go with me, I'll see it again!!"
Its something about those cars racing on the track and hitting corners or passing by another car that gives me the same feels of a horror flick, lol.
@@blessethisheadrenaline?
This was easily the biggest surprise of the year for me. I went in to this expecting to be mildly entertained as a fan of the game, and an avid car enthusiast. I brought my dad with me who instilled his love of cars in me, and grew up watching me play games like Need For Speed and Gran Turismo. We both loved it, and both were really surprised by how exciting and tense it was. The sound design REALLY shined in the theatre we saw it in as well. I was constantly getting goose bumps. Great review as always, Chris!!
my dad was in tears which set off my mum. Brilliant movie.
Sounded amazing in Dolby Atmos
That must of been experience especially the scenes between son and father. Honestly the scene before his last race got me chocked up man.
100%
@@roni2971 it really did
5:32 "I have my own basement, thank you very much" as a fellow basement owner, Chris is truly most relatable UA-camr
Saw this movie last night and was blown away, I thought it would be good but it ended up being really good. I could literally feel his anxiety when he was about to start races, and during the races too. The sound of the car, the way the cameras moved, it was just so good
The ptsd flashbacks after the rainbow car crashed at le mans 😭
So glad you appreciated this movie. As someone who works in and loves sim racing, this movie feels like immense validation, to see our niche portrayed on the mainstream stage, it's amazing. There were plenty of cliches and tropes in the movie but I can see past them.
Definitely one of the most fascinating game adaptations out there.
it's not a video game adaptation, it's based on a true story of a racer that involves using a video game
It’s not an adaptation, the same way the Tetris movie isn’t an adaptation
Chris grew up with Gran Turismo
Saw this at an early screening and LOVED IT! It really captures the danger racing poses to the drivers and fans. Unlike the Fast and Furious movies, when these cars flew I was genuinely scared for the characters.
This film will surely be one of those sleeper hits that grows into something appreciated. So many people overlooked it. I had a ticket for opening night and went in feeling pretty 'meh' about it, only to end up having such a blast with it. Easily the most fun racing film experience since Ford v Ferrari. If more people gave it a chance, they'd see that there's a lot to love here.
Great video Chris, I saw this film at an early screening in amc and I really think it’s one of the surprising films of the summer. David Harbour stole the show!
Bro watched the whole video in 17 seconds 💀
Chris grew up with Gran Turismo
Love the cartoon network shirt.
the movie is bland and dull
I basically predicted the whole damn movie, 24 hr le mann, all the character tropes etc. But man I did not expect to get emotional in this film. The part where he visited his crash was brilliant, david harbour is fantastic as well. I left the theatre feeling inspired and wanting to play some gt myself!
Yes!!! That surprised me to, I left the theater very happy kinda how I left after watching Top Gun Maverick. My only nitpick was that they didn’t make the scene of Jann and David Harbour driving in the Porsche longer those were some beautiful shots they captured at Nurburgring.
Saying you got emotional is bullshit since you claim you predicted anything.
Bro predicted a true story 💀
@@roni2971 same! I kinda expected they would do the same thing to end the movie in le mann, but it did not happen lol. Would be a perfect ending ngl
@@Patrick-lf3of i mean it really is not that hard, every racing movie ends with 24 hr le mann. But damn i sure did not expect to get teary eyed in that scene with his father. I was like bro i did not predict this why am i sobbing in a racing gamer movie
I'm astonished how well this film turned out. I know it's probably not a masterpiece but wow. This film could have easily sucked
It sucks, they did 3 shots when main character is winning by 0.00005s.
3 same cringe shots in 2 hrs movie.
Ramming oponents on racetrack without penalty ? Its there
Main char have clearly stronger car even they are racing same one - its there
Boring, easy to predict, story for kids
Commercial fest playing on nostalgia.
I didn't see any trailers. And saw it now playing, watched it, and indeed a very good movie. Some things felt like they didn't fit in this movie but for the vision/story they werw going for. The mechanic definitely sold this movie. Lol
Im sure the movie would've gotten a 100% tomato score and produced billions of dollars if they fixed everything u said, right. Cos nothing screams interesting than having a dude race 100 laps with nothing thrilling going on. If u want real racing, go watch a documentary or fox sports smh... @@Dar1usz
@@uzeirgamazsi721 His favourite movies are the type that are so badly written that even the writers don't know where the story is gonna go
@@LoganScottY fr 😂
It’s sad that Neil Blomkamp never got to do his vision for a Alien 5. He’s a very talented director, I think this is a sign that people should consider him as a big time director and should be hired. Honestly I’d love to see him direct his vision for Alien 5, but I’d want to see him to do other movies like another A Quiet Place spin-off, or even a Transformers movie.
I just came back from the theatre, it was aaaaamazing!!! My heart raced through the whole movie,I was thrilled, impressed, surprised and got really excited the whole time. Great visual, no stupid dialogues, great acting. I'm a fan,and I'm surprised. As you said, the movie is far,very far from the trailer. Usually trailers are a bluff, catching the few best moments of a movie. Not in this case. Not at all.🤷♀️
Watched it, it's definitely an A-/B+ movie. It's extremely good. You don't get many A+ or S-tier movies; this movie blows expectations out of the water as much as you can realistically expect. I loved it and definitely want to see it again in theaters with my dad, who loved GT back in its old days.
How movie with 3 cliche scenes in 2h ish movie [ winning by 0.0005 s ] can be A-B tier :D
Just asking :) I will not mention racing with pushing out opponents and finishing it without any penalty.
Theres no logic in this movie and still people are giving it A-B tier ...
@@Dar1usz Logic doesn't make or break a movie. Do you really think MOST A-B tier movies are even remotely "realistic"? It was entertaining. Not amazing, but very good in my opinion. If you get caught up on things like that, idk how you enjoy cinema at all.
@@Dar1uszyou have the same 2 complaints that equals 30 seconds of the movie. Get a life
Loved this movie. Blomkamp's direction was fantastic.
2023 has a lot of great biopics. Oppenheimer, Gran Turismo, Air, Tetris and Blackberry.
One of the better films this year. I really enjoyed it.
This and Dungeons & Dragons were the absolute best surprises of the year!!
Looks like PlayStation Productions are 3 for 3 this year with adaptations from Last of Us, Twisted Metal and Gran Turismo getting great buzz.
Last of Us was okay… it felt like they add basically adapted the cutscenes with a fraction of the charm of the games
@@firstlast9846I see what you mean. I didn’t mind that - even being a fan of the game and show - but me personally I love the direction they went with.
7:09 the fact that critics are liking it usually means it’s awesome 😂
I wish I could've enjoyed the GT movie as much as Chris did, I usually share a lot of similar tastes in film, but maybe its living in the GT sphere which has jaded me, I found it incredibly overdramatic, to a soap opera level in many cases (especially Orlando Bloom) and although most audiences won't notice or care, any fan of the game series who've been playing from the old days will find more than a few moments and technical specifics to be hilariously opposite to what the game actually offers.
The entire ''Brake fade'' fiasco being a prime example in the movie. Spoiler - there has never even been brake fade simulated in Gran Turismo. The idea of GT ever being as realistic of a ''sim'' as the movie presents it as, is pretty hilarious. *cough* 330 mph Alfa Romeo's in GT6, 600 mph wheelie tunes in GT3 etc etc. Even now in the latest of GT games you can still wallride at 450 mph with little more than sparks around the streets of Tokyo, but in the movie it presents Jann as being some technical prodigy who knows better than a chief engineer of 15 years (as the movie makes a point of highlighting) exclusively because of his time in GT.
I am glad to see more people than I'd expect enjoying the movie, its just a shame that the most avid of followers of the series which share its namesake are more often than not the least satisfied with the result.
I don't mind them doing the whole advertisement for GT but I wish they stayed with the PS3 and not going "Look at how advanced GT7 is, it's incredible!". I mean you get my benefit of the doubt with GT5 because hey it was a really good sim of the time but not fully there yet. Now with GT7 it's not even the most advanced as iRacing is the most commonly preferred sim racing program. Even F1 drivers don't really use their licensed games most of the time, opting for iRacing instead.
This movie was 10/10, a masterpiece
To everyone who said playing video games will never add to anything.....suck it!
Just say this to haters....Video Games bring more money than anything and will never go away
Hi, amazing channel! A slight side track but still in the realm; could you consider creating a tribute to the late and amazing Kevin Conroy? He passed away last year, and was the sole reason I got into acting. On MsMojo there was a video about the best voice acting in animate d movies and I think he should've been included for his role in Batman the Mask of Phantasm (the scene at the cementary). I have a VA background and there are some preconceived notions that it's not as demanding as regular acting; but the vocal training itself and perfecting the craft may take more time than any acting school. l feel like he's very underrated as Batman (ditto Mark Hamill as Joker) and even non existent in the conversation. PS. You almost saw me as Leon in those new Resident Evil games :)
It's a classic underdog tale and really tailored for the big screen. David Harbour is a definite highlight. This might be one of those movies you can take someone with who usually never goes to the theater and they will have a great time.
Absolutely exceeded my expectations, as well. While I think it runs a bit long and is, in a sense, predictable as we know the inevitable happy ending, the performances really elevate it and I had a great time in the theater.
Watched it twice, first time in IMAX and the racing scenes were incredible. It was super exhilarating and the racing scenes are worth watching alone
How u will explain they have same cars, same spec and somehow main character on straight after all racers reached top speed hes been gaining positions like he had more gears or obviously stronger car.
Races without penalty ? This movie have nothing common with racing except cars.
Same with actors.
Cliche winning by 0,005 s ? Its so good they did it 3 times in 2 hrs movie.
WTF haha cringefest
@@Dar1usz sorry, we were too busy having a great time with the movie
k, no one been able to answer so that was all i needed@@WillPaskee good luck enjoying a movie about racing have nothing common with racing, clown movie for clowns simple as that
@@Dar1uszgo touch grass
For years, Joseph Kosinski (Tron Legacy, Top Gun Maverick) was attached to direct, but Neill Blomkamp doing this as a massive fan of gaming himself might've been the best choice
I had the opportunity to see this at an AMC Investor Connect screening 2 weeks ago and thought it was great, even with some loud distractions during the show. I admit I'm not the best movie critic because I generally "grade lightly", but I saw it once again this past weekend with my gf and she cried more during this movie than any other we've seen together, so I'm glad to finally see a review that reinforces how good I think this movie really is.
This movie was somehow both "nothing special" and yet also the best time ive had in theaters all year and pumped UP for movies.
Im trying to get my family to see it with me so i can watch again and as soon as i got home i turned on some of my favorite movies to keep the energy going. I cant explain how but this movie just did something movies have not been able to do for a long time for me
Watched this movie with my Son who just turned six we both loved it!! It was an emotional roller coaster ended up at gamestop right after 😂😎😎
I was pretty tired and I still decided to go see the 10h20PM representation - I was scared of falling asleep during the movie. I did NOT. It's a very entertaining movie, great acting, music (nostalgia alert for the gamers), the RACING SEQUENCES were perfect. The father/son relationship was really touching too.
Had the chance to see this last week. Had a good time.
Feel ashamed to say as a PlayStation fan ever since PS2, I never owned Gran Turismo😅but I played it at my Uncle’s house. Fun game. Never thought it would work out great for true life story.
Djimon Hounsou is CRIMINALLY under rated, he is one of the best aspects of every movie he is in... papa midnight in constantine, I remember that character even from childhood, i thought he was cool af, and he had like 2 minutes in that movie lol. Hell even in that shit fighting movie Never Back Down... he literally acts circles around every other person in that movie. Gladiator, Djimon has always been a side character and yet his side characters are almost always memorable.
2:03 I really appreciate putting "in the world" along with Orlando Bloom
Solid acting. Fantastic action sequences. Touching story.
Gran Turismo is this summer's surprise sleeper hit.
I cried three times watching this movie. The racing sequence is brilliantly shot, and as you said, the acting was top notch which really got me. So happy this movie came out so great and audience is loving it!!!
Can you just Review NIMONA already? You scared of it or something, huh?!??
I went to a free screening last Monday night and this is definitely one of the best sports and video game adaptations. David Harbour and Archie are excellent in their roles in the movie along Dijmon Hounsou as his concerned, but caring father.
Love Your Reviews Chris.
Can't wait to see Gran Turismo.
Amazing Love it it was so good I give it 9.6 out of 10 also find it odd Orlando Bloom now looks more like Joaquin Phoenix
This ended up being quite possibly my favorite film of the year, after seeing it this past weekend
THE BEST SHOW I’VE SEEN IN YEARS!!!! PERFECT!!!!! I’ll return again and again. Going for the third time in a few days!!!! The movie and the top guys deserve the best movie awards!!!!! Fabulous acting!!!! And awesome true story!!!❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏🎊🎉🎊🎉
Critics didn’t like the film because they were expecting Lightning McQueen to make an appearance
so glad to see reviews starting to come out. I saw this back on July 25th and loved the movie
rly excited about this one :D we gotta watch it with the cinema colleagues next week
The only thing that ruined the Le Mans segment of the movie for a racing fan like me having followed Le Mans every year since 1997, was seeing how many track shots were very obviously not from the 24 hour segment of the track, but rather different sections of the permanent Bugatti circuit not raced at during Le Mans...
I wasn't sure if I want to watch the movie but I think after your review I'll actually going to watch it. Sounds like a nice time
" I didn't support you properly." STILL brings me to tears from just remembering the scene. The tone of his voice just communicates that he regrets how little he bonded with his " gamer" son while spending all his time supporting his brother. Although I do love how he says..." This Playstation,... I don't understand that shy..."
GRAN TURISMO FOR best picture at the oscars
Yeah the story was a little generic but I'm a sucker for inspirational sports movies so I enjoyed it- shot very well
went in expecting to be disappointed due to a review from a critic but when I say I loved this movie! I almost cried. I haven't felt this much emotion in a while watching a movie
I played GT2,3,4 prologue, 4, gt hd demo, some of 5
Obviously the racing is being over dramatised like in every movie ever about racing. Also allot of filming was done at Hungaroring (they drove reverse to kinda hide that i guess) and bits and pieces of that were edited in the parts of silverstone and le mans. As someone who has loved racing all his life and has a sim rig of his own and was easily top 1% in Gran Turismo these things are easily noticed. But tbh it didnt bother me to much. The film was still done very good despite these things. Enjoyed it allot actually.
Just took my family of 6 to go see it, and I was so surprised, it was an actually very good film! Neil Blomkamp* did an amazing job directing, he really made the movie special
If you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all.
Stuckmanns movie reviews are film criticism minus the criticism.
Loving a film and thinking its prefect is acceptable but it doesnt feel like Chris has a baseline anymore. Everything is good.
It sucks that Chris forgot what made him big, but he clearly has no interest in being a movie critic anymore and he wants to be a Hollywood guy. It feels like he's only keeping this channel around for money and to keep his name out there.
the first 15 mins of this movie feels like it's a $100k movie budget, then when the racing starts it's a $200M+ movie
😂
Looks like Stuckmann has the *NEED FOR SPEED* to review this flick 🏎️
I can say the same it’s really exciting especially when you finally beat your rival that feel of satisfaction after tons of torture from them is just too good
FIRST
Sound of Freedom is one of the biggest movies of the year, why have you not reviewed it or even mentioned it? Hard to take you seriously as a film critic otherwise.
Reetahd. lmao
I really really really liked it a lot..Made me laugh and made me cry..I really enjoyed it. So go see it.
Neill Blomkamp directed it, Chris Stuckmann loved it. I absolutely have to watch it!
I actually went to see another movie, but it was full, so ended up seeing this one. The trailer didn’t do it justice. Turns out this was a delightful movie experience and was a great time! Definitely recommend it.
It is a brilliant movie , it released in india today and I went to see the matinee show . I too had least expectation from the movie but it deserves a lot of credit . Back in my teens I was more involved with fighting games like TMNT or Mortal Kobat or Tekken . These games have no reality connect.can't expect tu turn into a turtle like donatello or freeze opponent like subzero does.
Just watched the movie and thought it was great. I'm also a huge Gran Turismo fan for mamy years now so it was up my alley.
The obe thing though, Gran Turismo isn't a proper Sim Racer as it tries to make you believe. It's a so-called SimCade Racer. (A hybrid between simulation and arcade).
The difference is that it tries to be realistic as possible yet easy enough to puck up and play even with a cotnroller. So the cars don't really behave like real cars, the driving physics aren't geared to be hyper realistic. Forzs Motorsport would also fall under the SimCade genre.
But we got a lot of great SimRacers thst are even more realistic than GT the mast few years.
Games like Assetto Corsa Competizione, rFactor 2, AutoMobilista 2 and iRacing but these are mainly PC Games.
Critics always talk shit & things are NEVER good enough. Or they are bias. Viewers/ audience on the other hand connect better.
Damn, I’m very surprised you don’t have a Blue Bettle review🤔…usually when a movie is being made, you see that movie even before the director gets to say “thats a rap!”……..but I see you gave a Barbie review 🤔 hhhhhmmmmmmmmm
hi...I just managed to catch this movie, its really a great movie, flows perfectly just like a car race with ups and down... I was really impressed although i had a gut feeling it will be good... it exceeded my expectations... the best part was watching this with my son... both of us really enjoyed it well.. Cheers from Malaysia
Just came back from the movies and man this movie was good. I got nostalgia from the sounds of the game during the races.
When will you review The Sound of Freedom? Do you have something against exposing child trafficing?
Looks like the race car driver equivalent to that Zac Efron movie about being a DJ
One of the biggest surprises in my life watching movies in teatre. Very nice time with the movie.
This movie looks SO good...Can't wait to see it!!
It’s definitely a B/B- movie in my eyes. Although I still want to rewatch it just for racing sequences because they are exciting and I adore racing films in general.
So you can say this movie is "Top Gun Maverick" from Cars Racing?
This movie had my curiosity, now have my attention.
I couldnt believe the Nissan GTR flying actually really happened to Jann. I thought there is no way that could happen other than a mercedes at le mans. Also the LMP2 car looked wicked(ligier nissan dpi).
It was kind of boring to watch halfway in the movie, the romance felt unneeded and didnt really affect the later parts of the movie.
I really didn't like this movie at all, honestly. Usually when adapting a true story, you tend to romance it, but the story besides the races felt like the most generic "young underdog trained by a grumpy veteran that had an accident" sport story ever. Most characters have absolutely nothing to tell
Yeah, it's not a video game movie. The video game is only a conduit to introduce the character to the premise of his story in the beginning. The film is a biopic/sports movie.
What fast n furious should be about. Actual racing like the first 3(should have stopped after Tokyo drift) lol
Have people recognize gow Sony pictures is taking her over????? I mean disney is dead in water yet Sony makes hit after hit i love it
Slight spoilers:
Anyone noticed the ending music from Heat at the ending of this movie?
I agree with you… great movie.. it was nice to see something that gets away from the woke Hollywood propaganda crap around lately
Critics hate games who gave bad scores same of what is happening in the movie. The movie was so intense as gamer and car race enthusiasts from F1 to Le Mans. I cried in the movie I was angry in sometimes and happy sometimes . What a great movie really please go and watch it and have good time.
Was really cool seeing Geri Halliwell as the mother. Wife to the Red Bull F1 team boss Christian Horner
The problem with this movie is that the actuall racing details are way off. In the Le mans race he says that the racing line is off so he seems to take a wider(and longer) line in every corner which just doesnt make any sense
This movie was really well done. Maybe its when the cars racing on the track that give me the same feels of a horror movie. Best character was the Mechanic. He was the honest guy, who puts doing the right thing over something shady which was his whole character because he seem to be surrounded by a bunch of shady people which made him brutally honest when he spoke. But we did see his character develop, the guy was key to the film. Especially when picking who won, that really showed how things be in the real world with hiring. The main character fits the story vision. But i kind of wasn't feeling the family and the relationship. Both felt a bit off. *B-* movie. Not bad.
Definitely the biggest surprise of the year, WAY better than I thought it would be
I was surprised how much I loved this film, considering i've only played the game only a couple times
I watched it earlier in DBOX, it was amazing.. best movie of the year so far.. f the haters
Loved District 9, I've loathed everything Neil has done since then, until now. GT is my film of the year, seen it twice already in as many days. Perhaps Neil Blomkamp should take a step away from sci-fi until the right project comes along and do other genres, he really hit this one out the park.
This movie is it..... incredible director. Acting all around is awesome
3:32 Happy Gilmore technically did the same thing 😂. Sandler went from Hockey to Golf
