Watch them hold on for their lives and try to go faster than ever before.

Nice, but nothing more. The whole thing starts off very slowly and is not even interesting at first. Then it comes to life and becomes a nice insight into the world of Moto GP. Unfortunately, they don't really dare to focus on a specific topic, so you end up looking at a summary of 10 years of Moto GP, which is just a bit too long. I'll round it up. *3.0

Often spectacular and certainly entertaining, but all in all this would have worked better as a series. This documentary, about six riders who are followed over several seasons in MotoGP, is very fragmentary and often no more than a summary of races, where it is difficult to tell the different riders apart. The subject calls for a more comprehensive and detailed approach. Producer Brad Pitt's voice-over is passable, but his voice is ultimately on the formal and business side.
