    This is my favorite Japanese film.

    The director spent three years researching, planning, and writing the script for this original story about an e-sports racer aiming for the pinnacle of real drifting.

    The racing scenes are amazing, with the king of drifting supervising and past D1 champions participating as drivers!

    The sound of the engines, the smoke from the explosions, and the camera work are "breathtaking."

    The footage is shot from angles never seen before, so it's even more awesome than the actual racing!

    The intersection of virtual and real is also great!

    Also, the music is cool!

    If you see it in a movie theater, your senses will be stimulated and even if you are not a car enthusiast, you will be moved by it.

    The actors' performances are also excellent, and I watched the movie without blinking or holding my breath from beginning to end.

    The king of drifting said, "I think this is a movie that car lovers all over the world will admire.

    The Drift Champion said, "I'm sure you've seen all kinds of awesome drifting driving scenes on DVD before, but it's not on that level, it's more awesome! The drifting driving in the movie is not at that level!" He evaluated the film as follows.

    The people involved are amazing!

    Naoki Nakamura (Drift Grand Prix Series Champion in 2021)

    Taigo Saito (World's first "Lamborghini" Drift)

    Masato Kawabata (The holder of the Guinness World Record for the fastest drifting)

    Sumika Kubokawa (Drift Ladies League champion for three consecutive years)

    Masashi Yokoi (Drift Grand Prix Series Champion in 2018 and 2019)

    I don't think anyone would say this movie wasn't interesting.

    I could feel the "passion" of Director Shimoyama Ten who directed and edited the film. Thank you for the emotion!

    This is the best movie in Japan! As a Japanese, this is my favorite Japanese movie.

    Gran Turismo 1 to Real Life Drifting Performance Shop Owner In Japan!

    In the age of movies with a lot of computer-generated graphics, it was very refreshing to see Alive Hoon which features many top-level Japanese drift drivers. All of what you will see is real motion. The movie will be relatable to many of the people like myself whom got into cars as a result of Gran Turismo was a great hit. 1997 is when my love of cars began from GT1 now I am a pro drifter and pro automotive performance shop owner living in Japan!!

    Go See!!

    A true drifting action film!

    Having been involved with drifting for a couple decades now it's a breathe of fresh air to see a properly made movie that covers the real aspects of drifting! I loved seeing drifters that have inspired the sport playing their parts within the film! The cars are real drift cars that if you're involved with the motorsport, will recognize and appreciate. The shooting style and camera angles are top notch. Most of the time this motorsport gets captured from the same angles. This really gave drifting the proper "action effects" that you feel while doing it, but through a lens! Very well done by everyone involved and I hope this film carries you all far!

    Refreshed

    So refreshing to see a drift movie that's not cringe our outdated but involved the real world of what drifting currently realy is.. Over joyed to watch this seeing all my drift heroes present ♥

    And also it touches upon one of the greatest rising industries in motorsport!! Simulation!!!

    The future is going to be crazy.. I always have this theory that when cars phase out everyone's gonna be fully cracked onto the Sim.... So the earlier people solidify their names and presence into the Sim Drifting industry the better

    But besides that... Super happy about this one. Hope it catches onto the international world.

    the car movie we all needed

    This really is a great movie, 100% will become a cult classic soon if it hasnt already began...the driving shots are so spot on an some of the angles theyve achieved are remarkable. The director has captured some really amazing footage of the characteristics of how a car actually reacts in situations an it's beautiful. Nothing faked or CG'd, just pure automotive elegance.

    The story line is also a nice down to earth realistic tale, being a simracer and a amateur drifter, this movie is 1 that i could understand emotionally from start to finish.

    Its awesome to have people out there that still want to make movies like this.
