As a teenager, Yann (Archie Madekwe) loved playing Gran Turismo. His father (Djimon Hounsou) He was a professional football player, his younger brother (Daniel Puig) was safely finishing high school, and Yann worked for a month in a lingerie store to save up for a new PlayStation steering wheel. By that time, in his native Cardiff, he had already beaten everyone several times and competed exclusively with himself for days on end. So he would have sat at the console until old age, but Nissan, namely marketing director Danny Moore (Orlando Bloom), with his idea of transferring virtual racers to real sports cars, saved Yann from the life of an overage gamer.
The most amazing thing about the film "Gran Turismo" is that it is based on the true story of Yann Mardenborough. Indeed, in 2011, Nissan decided to experiment with Gran Turismo racers in reality, and Mardenborough became one of the few who successfully moved from a gaming chair to an automobile one. Minus this circumstance, the picture does not even look like a computer game, which might be nice, but like a two-hour commercial for a computer game.
Conditionally, the film can be divided into two parts: gaming and racing. In the first, Yann spends most of his time in front of the console, conflicts with his parents, who for some reason are not happy with his son's obvious obsession with a Japanese video game, builds ingenious strategies for overtaking virtual rivals and tries to prove to others that this is real life. In general, he behaves inadequately, but one day the world bends under him. At the same time, Danny Moore, Nissan's marketing director, persuades Gran Turismo bosses to hold a competition among gamers and release some of the best on the real race track. The idea gets the green light, Mardenborough shows the best result among British players and becomes one of those admitted to training on real sports cars.
Here, their "coach", engineer Jack Salter, performed by David Harbor, begins to pull the blanket over them. This giant sometimes seems to be the only one who could save the picture — Madekwe-Yann obviously lacks acting skills, and Bloom and, for a moment, twice Oscar nominee Khons, it seems, simply have nothing to play, and the timing of the characters is allocated to a minimum. Salter is sarcastic, Salter is harsh, Salter makes real athletes out of "couch racers" and even takes a liking to the recruits. And at the best moments, when only the race remains in the frame, and they forget to add lines like "This is reality, not a game, remember this!" and "If you doubt, you won't be sure!", you can even confuse the picture with "Baby on the drive". But, alas, neither the director (the author of "District No. 9", by the way), nor the screenwriter Alex Tse stood next to Edgar Wright, and therefore the expensive commercial remains a commercial.
Outstanding actors in the background and the once promising director Neil Blomkamp are powerless before the fact that they are adapting a racing simulator. A two-hour film exists as if without a core, it is probably an ideal picture to demonstrate all the possibilities of the 4D cinema format, when the viewer, among other things, shakes in a chair in all directions. A complacent intonation without unnecessary emotional swings at some point, of course, can take over: when else will there be a movie where the main character moves so smoothly and sedately to inevitable success, bypassing all obstacles in a maximum of 5-10 minutes? But this lack of conflict only enhances the feeling of watching a children's letsplay, not a movie
