DOCUMENTARY
ABOUT ELECTRIC
RACING HOLDS
LITTLE SPARK
For proof that Leonardo DiCaprio can’t save
every film he touches, look no further than “And
We Go Green,” a languid documentary about the
electric car racing circuit.
DiCaprio, who is a producer of the film, makes
a cameo in the 26th minute, adding a dash of
Hollywood glamour but not really helping clean
up this messy project. For a film about super-fast
cars making hairpin turns at hundreds of miles
per hour, it really meanders.
The documentary’s spine is the fourth Formula
E championship of 2017-18, which had 12 races
in 10 cities, pitting 20 drivers from 10 teams. It
begins with a false start in Hong Kong and ends
with the crowning of a winner in New York.
