This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Another great movie from director Mark Neale, showcasing the 2005 USGP at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. Although a mediocre race in comparison to the Italian GP which took place a few races before, the history behind a race absent for 13 years is mesmerizing to say the least. Rich with celebrities, state of the art Motogp machines, and 50,000 rabid fans, this documentary will satisfy any fanatic of the awesome world of Motogp. Hopefully there will be a directors cut with footage of the 2006 GP that ended with similar results. Nicky Hayden in his maiden top step podium finish proved to the world and to his Repsol Honda team that he can be a world champion, the only problem is a young, charismatic 6 times world champion who goes by the nickname "The Doctor", Valentino Rossi and his American counterpart and teammate Colin "The Texas Tornado" Edwards. I also recommend Faster, and the sequel Faster & Faster
