It's an engaging watch, and Street's own camera work provides attractive polish.

Like the Beastie, this film never quite picks up speed, but it is certainly a more enjoyable ride.

3/5

A fascinating and quietly revealing portrait of a man who, by his own admission, is unbalanced, obsessional and battles depression, yet still likes nothing more than jumping on his bike and riding it as fast as he can.

3/5

A David-Goliath battle that keeps us invested, for all the film's circuitous longueurs and a score that seeks to steer our emotions rather than stir them.

3/5

Even though Obree does not emerge from this absorbing (if overlong) documentary as someone you would necessarily want as a mate, it is impossible not to root for him.
