Nice film..:)

"The fastest Indian" is an interesting story about the making of a champion, set in the world of kart racing. The movie also brings into the spotlight this sport. I think this is especially appealing to people already having an interest in karting, but might seem a bit "unusual" for others.

In other words, a niche film. I like the way it was made to look like a documentary, with constant comments from actors playing various essential roles.

Interesting plot, though a bit hard to follow due to the abundance of characters with different backstories(which are thoroughly presented and explained).

Overall, it talks about the things it truly takes to become a champion, something that could extend beyond the film's scope(not just about becoming a kart champion, but becoming a champion in general).

Personally, I think it should've been more action oriented than narrative(the good old "show, don't tell" rule), but it's just a matter of taste. But it does make for a unique cast of characters and can be used to promote karting, to raise awareness about this sport.

A bit funny at times, a bit serious, this is a film I enjoyed watching and, though I wasn't particularly interested about its subject at first, I ended up by enjoying it and with zero regrets about the time spent watching it!:) I would definitively recommend it...
