Rush races onto Blu-ray in an edition that offers roaringly good high definition picture and sound. The movie itself is an effective, if simplistic, retelling of the Formula 1 rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda in 1976. There’s a quiet sense of the period, and a fairly strong performance by Daniel Bruhl as Lauda which gives the movie its teeth. The Blu-ray offers some deleted scenes and about 50 minutes worth of featurettes to balance out the package. Formula 1 fans and Ron Howard enthusiasts will certainly enjoy this movie. Based on the strength of Bruhl’s performance and the overall effectiveness of the movie, this Blu-ray is Recommended for purchase or rental.
