Charged--movie

[SVRACER01]

i watched the movie Charged last night on Netflix. narrated by ewen mcgregor and i believe the film is done by the same guy that did the Faster movies.
it was a documentary on the Isle of Man TT electric bikes. it was pretty interesting. it covered the first year they were at the TT in 09 and again in 10. mainly follows the MotoCzysz team. theres some weird guy on there that talks like a cartoon or something out of monty python but the movie was pretty good.
if youre looking for something fairly interesting to watch and have 1.5 hours to kill, then check it out.
i think i may revisit Fastest since thats on netflix as well.

I was just getting on to post about it. I finished it yesterday. Good documentary on how far those bikes hade gone in the span of a little over a year. $350k for the first generation motoczysz bike is insane.

Good movie, even my GF enjoyed it. That one guy is so weird tho...definitely added some comedy to it! Haha

I thought the production value was somewhat lacking compared to faster/fastest/etc. but overall it was a good movie. Anyone know what's up with motoczysz these days? last I heard they had shut down.

The have run out of financial backing multiple times, on multiple projects.


Basically, he has some cool ideas that don't produce any money for anyone.
