Entertainment Reviews:
Le Mans is a class film in every way, attitude, realization, taste. It has visceral emotion but not heart.

It's better perhaps to view it as a visual poem about cars in motion.

...one of the best pure racing movies ever made. But if you don't like automobile racing, you might not find much to enjoy.

As for what it has, this may be a film that is mostly for racing buffs. Even if you know nothing about the sport, however, matters are explained simply enough that you can understand and enjoy.

Product Description:
An American race car driver (Steve McQueen) returns to competition a year after an accident leaves him badly injured. As he prepares to face his chief rival in the famous Le Mans race, he also begins a new romance with the wife of a driver who died in the same accident that nearly killed him. Often considered the best racing film ever, LE MANS captures on film the personal intrigue and death-defying sportsmanship of the world's most famous and dangerous racing competition. Steve McQueen did most of his own driving on the 8.5 mile course, often exceeding 200 mph.
