The Doctor, The Tornado & The Kentucky Kid (2006)
THE DOCTOR, THE TORNADO & THE KENTUCKY KID is the electrifying follow-up to Mark Neale’s 2004 MotoGP smash hit FASTER. Narrated by Ewan McGregor, the movie tells the story of the biggest motorcycle race in American history, the 2005 Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix at Laguna Seca, California. It’s a tale of extraordinary characters chasing a dream in the face of real danger, under unimaginable pressure, with no margin for error. For lovers of maximum adrenaline action, this is the pure, unadulterated, 100% genuine article.

Good start, but then it gets ruined
Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Another great movie from director Mark Neale, showcasing the 2005 USGP at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. Although a mediocre race in comparison to the Italian GP which took place a few races before, the history behind a race absent for 13 years is mesmerizing to say the least. Rich with celebrities, state of the art Motogp machines, and 50,000 rabid fans, this documentary will satisfy any fanatic of the awesome world of Motogp. Hopefully there will be a directors cut with footage of the 2006 GP that ended with similar results. Nicky Hayden in his maiden top step podium finish proved to the world and to his Repsol Honda team that he can be a world champion, the only problem is a young, charismatic 6 times world champion who goes by the nickname "The Doctor", Valentino Rossi and his American counterpart and teammate Colin "The Texas Tornado" Edwards.
