Critic Reviews
“McLaren stands as more a celebration than sombre eulogy … and should
hold differing types of appeal to various generations.”

“Taking a leaf out of Asif Kapadia's award winning documentary Senna
(2010), Donaldson offers a comprehensive account of the highs and lows in the
man's short, yet fruitful career.”
– HeyUGuys

Donaldson.”
