Considering the subject matter, Rush delivers the expected visceral jolts; what's surprising is how endearing it is, even when its two protagonists are behaving like little more than boys with very fast toys.

Rush is not a particularly deep film. But more importantly, it is not a film that mistakes itself for deep. And this self-knowledge makes Rush, in some ways, a wiser film than many that aspire to loftier goals.

Howard's good sense on Rush is to repeat his Frost/Nixon success by surrounding himself with superior writing and acting talent

Nearly as narratively compelling as it is viscerally thrilling, "Rush" is Howard's most efficient film since "Apollo 13."

An entertaining movie with two solid performances that only occasionally stalls because of its sometimes heavy-handed treatment of Hunt and Lauda's differences.

Thuddingly obvious and proud of it, Rush is a slick, breakneck entertainment.

One of the best looking and sounding films of the year on top of being one of the most exciting.

Rush is an outsize Hollywood spectacle about two outsize personalities in conflict, a sleekly assembled thrill machine that makes up in excitement for what it lacks in nuance.

Rush is pure 'print the myth' stuff -- but since both its heroes really are myths, it gets away with it, with more grace and vigor than you might expect.

If you don't already know the story of that season, lucky you; even now, it exerts a ridiculous thrill.
