There are some really wonderful folk interviewed here, but you'll never hear them speak more than 10 words before your cut away to something else.. ..and you'll never get to see them ponder a question.

This documentary has almost epilepsy triggering editing. I feel it's made for US audiences, where if a scene lasts more than 3 seconds it's too long, as that's all the director thinks the viewers attention span can handle.

This is a subject that is well worth covering. But that Mr Brabhams story is covered like a music video aimed at sugar loaded teens is a tragedy.

Jack Brabham was a great Australian sportsman and often forgotten as our tennis players and Olympians take Centre stage. I was so looking forward to this tribute to Jack but the viewers and Jack have been let down. So much wonderful footage that is flicked on the screen for short amounts of time or shown on a very small old style TV set in an lounge room. Then we have Grayson Perry giving social commentary and lots of clips of Paul Newman. What's going on? Another disappointing thing was when they interviewed Brabhams collaborator ,Ron Tauranac. Ron then went on to get praise from others. We then flick to Jackie Stewart who couldn't remember Ron's name. Might have happened but was totally unnecessary to keep in the film and so disrespectful. Hopefully someone else will come up with a decent tribute!

I was so looking forward to this release, Jack Brabham being such a legend in the field. He was the first and only man to win both the Formula 1 World Driver's Championship AND the Formula 1 World Manufacturers Championship in 1966. This had never been done before and will never be done again....absolutely unique! He deserved so much more that this tripe.

Whilst I hold both David and Geoff Brabham in very high regard for their own outstanding accomplishments in motor racing, I would be disappointed if they had any idea what the makers of this so-called documentary were going to produce.

It seems to me that the producers/director were focused on trying to be 'smart' or 'artistic'; they were trying too hard and missed the point entirely. The animations were of poor quality and totally inappropriate to the subject matter. The bloody 'burning racing driver' walking through the bush??? The burning bush shed?? Ron Dennis hit the nail on the head when he said to the interviewers who were off screen, "Guys, guys, you gotta be professional!" as he scolded them for wandering around and distracting him whilst he was talking.

Who the hell is Grayson Perry? Poor Ron Tauranac seemed to barely tolerate what he was being asked to do and, Paul Newman.....??? And why did they use a soundtrack and film clips of Stevie Wright from 1975? Jack had been retired for 5 years!

On the other hand, Jackie Stewart is always worth listening to, Doug Nye was great, Ron Dennis was interesting and Tony Davis was very good. There was some very good and interesting information presented in the production but it was interrupted by clips and music and animations that did nothing but distract and annoy....they were just wrong!

If you want to learn about Jack Brabham and his era of motor racing, this is a poor place to go. Log on to YouTube and search for Jack, there are plenty of very informative videos about Jack and Ron there, that are much more satisfying.

This DVD was such a huge missed opportunity to do honour to a great and inspiring man.
