Ian McKellen is captivating throughout. He delights in the play’s gallows humour, yet is also maudlin and poignant

Utterly, utterly brilliant. You really are in for a treat
Though 'Trilogy' has won rave reviews, I personally found myself exasperated after about an hour
We went on a quiet sunday evening and the food was excellent, but the experience let down by the service and ambiance

Description: Hollywood leading man Eric Bana joins three of his childhood friends on a gruelling odyssey in this documentary about petrol-heads with an insatiable need for speed.

Motor mad: Eric Bana in Love The Beast
You would have to love Eric Bana and his souped-up old racer to appreciate this car-themed documentary.
It shows how the actor came to believe his motor to be almost as treasurable as his wife and children, and certainly as good for his soul as his acting career.
He’s clearly a modest man — but this is a pretty modest film too.
