Love the Beast
Hollywood superstar Eric Bana (Munich, Star Trek) delivers an exhilarating love letter to classic muscle cars and their die-hard owners in his directorial debut. Featuring conversations with fellow car enthusiast Jay Leno, Top Gear's Jeremy Clarkson and Dr. Phil, Love the Beast chronicles Eric`s twenty-five year journey with his very first car, a Ford XB Falcon Coupe he`s nicknamed "The Beast." In 2007, the duo tackled the Targa Tasmania Rally, a grueling five-day endurance event that totaled The Beast and nearly cost Eric his life. Left to pick up the pieces, will he find the strength to rebuild his faithful companion?

I went into this flick expecting someone with too much money to spend on cars. Boy was I ever wrong, Bana is a genuine racer and car buff.
While this is a car movie, it is accessible to those who aren't gear heads. Unless your other is into cars it isn't a date movie :)Surprisely excellent - Darrow42
I got this movie not expecting much. Eric Bana, a muscle car and his vanity project; I like cars, so I took a chance.
Turned out the film was a thoroughly entertaining 90 minutes or so. It was about, as Mr. Bana said, the two constants in his life: his mates; and the beast (his car). The interviews with Jay Leno and Jeremy Clarkson were excellent; Dr. Phil, less so.
If you like cars, you will like this movie.
