Chapter 115: "Rush" Special Screening at TGV 1 Utama

Date: 26th September 2013 (Thursday)
Venue: TGV 1 Utama, Bandar Utama (3.148219,101.616506)

This evening, me and my friends went to TGV 1 Utama to exchange for <Rush> special screening passes. And after this we had our dinner before we entered the cinema hall to watch the movie. When we entered the hall, most of us are happy because we sit in the TWIN SEATS as known as COUPLE SEATS. It's a bit weird for those who are not couple, but it's more comfortable than the NORMAL SEATS.

<Rush> Movie Review
This movie is based on the true story about the two highly skilled race car drivers, James Hunt and Niki Lauda. At first, I found that Niki Lauda was a arrogant person. Because when he buys his way into BRM Formula One team, he complained a lot about the race car are sucks and look down on the mechanic whom worked for him. And James Hunt is the one who is hot tempered, because he angry to his wife, Suzy Miller when he didn't get any sponsor from any Formula One team.

During the race in Nürburgring (German Grand Prix 1976), there are the hugh rain in the already dangerous race track. Before the race as we can see got one race car driver fall on accident and his leg are broke till we can look on the bone (It's disgusting). Lauda suggested to cancel the race but failed after Hunt convinces the others that Lauda fears losing the point race. Unfortunately, Lauda's Ferrari race car crashed violently and bursts into the flames because he trying to win James Hunt by adding up the speed. The competition is always a good thing but forcing yourself to win is not a good thing because sometime it might hurt your body. Luckily, Lauda was saved from the flames and sent to the hospital. And he learnt that family is more important than the race. (It's quite touching when his wife, Marlene Knaus cried and asked him not to join the race.) This make James Hunt felt guilty to Lauda because he suggested not to cancel the race.

In the final race (Japanese Grand Prix), there are hugh rain in the race track. James Hunt trying to suggest to cancel the race but failed. Lauda did join the race too but he give up in the middle of the race because he released that it's dangerous to continue since his eyesight is not that good and he did think about her wife (who will take care of his wife if anything happened on him). It's really make me touching because he put his wife as the important thing than the race car. Finally, James Hunt won the championship.

As a conclusion, the championship is not a important thing in our life, the most important thing in our life is our family. Be appreciate with what you had because you might have chance to win the championship next time.
