The movie, which opens in Japan on Feb 7, tells the story of the 1970s Formula One rivalry between James Hunt (Hemsworth) and Niki Lauda (Bruhl). Hemsworth, making his first visit to Japan, is also promoting "Thor: The Dark World."

This is already available to buy and rent on the UK iTunes store. Why would I pay to go and see it in the cinema?
