This film is presented as a quiet adventure really. Monroe's character has excellent dialogue. The whole film is really crafted well, and engulfs you leaving you fully entertained by a great story. Anthony Hopkins presents his character brilliantly with his usual skill. His character is of one of those rare people who touch other lives in a way that seems to be a thing of the past in the film industry. The scenes on the salt lake flats are well done, and look credible. Not sure how they managed to do that, but that is Hollywood. Well done script writers. I would recommend that you go and see this film, or at least rent it.

i appreciated the movie... i won't say much... just not to raise up the bar too much... it's is a fine movie! i wanted to watch this in a fast forward way, but I forgot about that and watched it whole... got engulfed in it... Burt Monroe was a well determined man from what I saw. a fine gentleman, with his talks up to date, ingenuity, respect and simplicity... what touched me about it, is that it reminded me of my dad. He is also a determined man who did a lot in his life never to ask for anything in return... That's why this movie was special and touching for me... It also reminds you of how old people are, behave, sometimes getting on your nerves but still people who are able to live... never to depend. that's how i wanna grow old to be.. loved the light man Burt Monroe was... I must say... Great Performance by Anthony Hopkins!! If you respect your elders you will somewhat find it touching... If you don't, you may start to... Worth watching ;)

The usual pattern of online reviews is followed here it seems. First we get a flush of people who love the film and then a few who don't and seem to delight in telling us. Some of the more recent poor reviews leave me a little confused – can you really be that impervious to a good film, or perhaps you think yourself more sophisticated than the rest of us for making disparaging remarks of that which others enjoy? The film is a delight and works on many levels. The acting and story are superb and it deserves those first gushing reviews. It receives criticism for being slow, it isn't, its subtle, there is a big difference. Also - guys, it is based on a true story, so criticising it for the turn of events depicted is pointless. I only got round to watching it very recently, hoping it would be an antidote from the crash and burn pyrotechnic antics of mainstream Hollywood. It is much more than that. I love Burt, you can't help but love Burt.

Is it really necessary to write a review for a movie in which Anthony Hopkins stars? He has played a dominant part in many magnificent movies like Silence Of The Lambs, Hannibal, Instinct, The Edge, etc. An actor like Sir Anthony Hopkins can break or make a movie. In this one, I really believe him to be the adventurous Burt Munro. In this movie he has this funny accent and he meets a lot of exceptional people. Like Tony already mentioned this movie lacks any special effects. But when Mr. Hopkins is performing at his best, there is absolutely no need for expensive, special effects. Take a nice bottle of red wine or a glass of whisky and a cigar and enjoy this movie. It really is one of the best movies that has been released this year.

I wanted so much to like this movie, but it just got to be too much to bear. "Crazy but Sweet" Burt gets on your nerves after the first 10 minutes and it becomes a challenge to grit it through the hackneyed situations and corny dialogue. The gratuitous menagerie of "California Flakes" that Burt encounters on his trip to the USA is also way over the top. The only reason this movie got any stars at all was that the motorcycle scenes are above average, though the manipulation of the film speed is pretty irritating. Sorry, but this turns out to be a big yawn.

A great story with a touching and humorous performance from Anthony Hopkins, The World's Fastest Indian is one of those perfect films to watch on a lazy Sunday. The camera work is superb and there are some brilliant shots of the eponymous Indian motorcycle. It could easily drift into being sentimental and cheesy but never does, being respectful of the history, while remaining charming and funny. A film not just for fans of motorcycles but also anyone that enjoys a good old fashioned underdog story. Very inspiring and a great reminder that you are never too old to chase your dreams.
