Movie Review: WAYNE The Wayne Gardner Story

RELEASE DATE: 13/09/2018
RUNNING TIME: 95 mins
DIRECTOR Jeremy Sims

career highlights of Aussie racing legend, Wayne Gardiner.

Enthusiastic and often emotional, WAYNE captures the complexity of a man’s passion for doing something that you love.

WAYNE the film, much like its irreverent namesake, is a fun, fast-paced journey through the formative years and career highlights of Aussie motorbike racing legend, Wayne Gardner.

Via incredible footage of the brutal and short-lived 500cc MotoGP era of the late 80’s and early 90’s, the film provides an insightful view into the supportive personal relationships, competitive rivalries and ultimately well-deserved legacy that one person made on a sport and a nation.

Star rating: 4/5 “Awesome”
