Kermode & Mayo’s Take

CHAPTER

Gran Turismo by Neil Bonkamp

I am a fan of Neil Bonkamp. I love District 9. I actually liked Elysium, which had a slightly harder time with the critics. The story itself is kind of rather extraordinary. Archie Madocqui is really good in the central role again. It was a strange bit of casting initially, but then perfectly fine. There are some drawbacks to say the script is on the nose - there's no underlying message. But you know since you're seeing what we're literally stating right now, it's not all that bad.
