The first reactions to Neill Blomkamp’S Gran Turismo The movie hit social media and critics love and praise it as one of the best video game movies ever made. It’s great to see these critics so enthusiastic about the film and it makes me excited to watch it!
The film has been described as “the ultimate wish-fulfillment story of a teenage Gran Turismo player whose gaming skills won him a series of Nissan competitions to become a true professional race car driver.” Jann was able to translate his impressive Gran Turismo gaming skills into real life through a series of Nissan competitions, which led him to become a professional race car driver.
Reactions call it a ‘solid fit’, a ‘turbo sports epic’, ‘a winner’, ‘amazing’ and more.
#Gran Turismo it’s a solid fit! I really discovered the way they incorporated some gameplay images into the film and Neill Blomkamp’s style for the film in general. Many very effective and more intimate handheld cameras work with real texture that makes everything feel… pic.twitter.com/vFaxE53poC

Add #Gran Turismo to this year’s list of amazing video game adaptations. A turbo-boosted sports epic that knows exactly when to speed up and slow down. Star Archie Madekwe channels the agile and courageous gamer in all of us. David Harbor steals the show pic.twitter.com/Efp6kPBVXm

THE #Gran Turismo the movie is a winner.
The shocking true story told here runs around most video game titles as movies. I found myself hooked, especially in the second half. Slick racing with creative nods for gamers. Excellent work by David Harbor and Archie Madekwe. Nice film! pic.twitter.com/ianMi6Ogen

I just finished watching the #GranTurismoMovie. I can’t give a full review but I can say that the racing action was filmed in a great and unique way. The story gave off Karate Kid vibes at certain points. Curious to see the reaction of the Gran Turismo community to this movie. 🤔 pic.twitter.com/6UxdnKG53I

#Gran Turismo is the real deal and a glorious, crowd-pleasing return to form for Neill Blomkamp, who directs the hell out of this sports movie based on a true story. Blomkamp mixes visceral reality with heightened video game flourishes to great effect, plus real emotionality 🏎️ pic.twitter.com/KLyTeP7fLA
