RUSH is about Superheroes: Best film ever

2013-09-26 Elisabeth Schabus Chris Hemsworth, Daniel Brühl, Niki Lauda, Thor, Zurich Film Festival 4

Niki Lauda has always been a living legend to us Austrians. After having seen Ron Howard’s epic film RUSH here at the ZFF though, Niki goes right up to Olympus for this Austrian girl. And so does German actor Daniel Brühl. It’s eerie how he just IS Niki Lauda, gait, face, speech, eyes and all. Kudos, Mr. Brühl! Oscar worthy. Studied close ups, frantic cuts, shrieking atmo and an amazing score by Alan Zimmer add to the impression: This is the best film I have ever seen. No kidding. Nothing comes close. Nothing! One word to übersexy THOR star Chris Hemsworth playing James Hunt: A British accent makes even this Adonis of a man that tad more attractive 🙂
