It's really that simple for me. Nigel Mansell was the Rocky of F1. I'm not taking anything away from his natural talent and skill. But you need to understand that he came from nothing. This isn't the typical F1 driver path. He had raw talent and unbelievable grit. He climbed mountains to get where he did. On the cusp of many world championships and luck just didn't go his way. He was the people's champion, especially for the British. Adored his wife (she was literally his rock) and his kids. Arguably one of the most gifted drivers of all-time.

This documentary does a great job of showing you who Nigel is. It seems the only person that didn't like him was Nelson Piquet. It opened my eyes to how nasty he was. So called "Playboy".

I enjoyed this from start to finish. It wasn't perfect. What is? But it brought back great memories and was very nostalgic. He came from an era of the last of the true F1 racers. Mansell is such an emotional guy and you can't help but think emotions fuelled many of his races. He loved the fans. He wanted to give them something to celebrate. But as usual, you'll see the typical British tabloid doing what they do best. Tearing celebrities & sports stars down.

I think this could make a great movie. Mansells story is as good as any F1 driver. If you love motorsport, especially F1. You'll enjoy this. If you're a gen X or boomer F1 fan, you'll properly enjoy this.

It's a Wayans movie. I can't believe some of the ratings on here. Clearly, they don't understand what the Wayans do and their style.

I rewatched this last night with my boy and he absolutely loved it. I enjoyed it too. Completely forgotten most of it from the first time I watched it back in '06-'07.

It's no "I'm Gonna Git You Sucka", but it's silly enough and ridiculous enough at times to pull some great laughs. And that's the point. Ridiculousness.

I was expecting a rating of around 5.5 because I know how poorly people rate most movies, especially comedies. Everyone is an expert writer, director, actor, etc... which gives them the right to slate other work that is up to their standards.

I enjoyed it enough to easily give a 6-6.5, but based on the ridiculous ratings I feel it deserves a solid 7.

Fans of the brilliant early 90's show "In Living Color" should enjoy this. Those who enjoy today's SNL show, won't.

Proof again for me to never trust the rating on shows or movies. Read through the ratings/comments first, or don't and just watch it.

Remember when you picked a movie in Blockbuster or your local VHS/DVD rental store? Yeah, you rented some brutal movies but you enjoyed most of them and found plenty of gems. Having access to ratings like this back then would have deprived you of so many little gems or entertaining movies, if you used a rating system and didn't rent/watch anything below a 5-6...
