I wouldn't call it "Oscar worthy" but it is certainly at the level of Hollywood cinematography and surpasses all other car review channels, including Top Gear for this car in particular.
The videos from Henry and Jason are so well made, they are actually crafted to perfection. They are extremely well filmed, written, edited. You can tell that effort and passion are put into these videos and that makes them way more special than what the rest of YT channels and even TV programs with way more budget can produce.
I wanted Henry's review to be the first I watched. A special journalist for a special car. The video did not disappoint, and neither does the Vanquish. I'll take mine in Aluminite Silver, which I assume is a similar hue that might be chosen for that fella who shall not be named 🙂
MmmMMM! Those view where it is from the drivers perspective. BEST. EVER! Every other attempt to capture on film on how it feels the drive a particular car (too low, too high, off to a side, angled wrong, etc.). Man those were great. And the Henry's narration of what makes these cars special is just bang on, not a word misplaced. Well done Hagerty production team!
After getting home from work, and seeing that all of the various motoring channels I’ve subscribed to have uploaded reviews for a new car, Henry Catchpole is always the journalist I look for, to watch.
@@Puzzoozoo I have a job, flight testing real aircraft. Way cooler than designing gauge clusters for old fashioned combustion engine car manufacturers. 😎
Hagerty reminds me of the old Top Gear. The cinematic intros definitely remind me of them. The intro looks like something taken from The Perfect Roadtrip's intro with the Riva Aquarama. Hagerty, this is probably the 3rd Aston Martin video I will be watching repeatedly.
I'm so glad you posted this at the exact same time as Top Gear as I would of watched that but I would much rather hear Henry's review than 25 different presenters at Top Gear I've never heard of
I’m struggling to finish this review. His monotone dialogue isn’t for everyone and doesn’t get me excited for the launch of Aston’s flagship vehicle (or any car he reviews)
I was expecting henry to talk about the looks of this vanquish a lot more because i think this one of the best looking cars of the modern era.that back end.ufffff
Once you pointed out the sound similarities to the modern BMW 6s, I couldn’t unhear it. Not a bad thing whatsoever. I love the deep grunt of both engines.
...another outstanding review Henry! Aston is back, that's for sure. The lineup is amazing, the cars are jawdroppingly beautiful, although, from certain angles, the Vanquish gives me some POLESTAR ONE vibes...rear 3/4's a giveaway. I've been praising the FERRARI Dodicicilindri design for a while now...but comparing with the Vanquish...dude, no hope...Aston is on a classe of its own. Sheer bloody poetry in motion. Cheers mate. Keep it up
The aerial view at 1:00 reminded me of Matt Farah's comment when testing the 2021 Porsche Turbo S. "These new cars are so wide you can only run one line, there is no moving within the lane."
Still can't believe we can get such high quality content for free. Absolutely fantastic review. Loved the close to the ground camera, it felt like I was driving it a bit.
Thanks, Henry (and team), for all the effort. You are always cerebral, fun, and do such a good job sharing what a car is like to interact with. Cheers.
It's amazing how, bit by it, AML are returning the looks of their cars back to the Vantage circa 2016 - after making that disastrous shift to the AMG Vantage and the DB11. The squared-off rear reminds me a lot of my N430. Now, if they can just reduce the gapping shark front back to the proportions of my N430, then they'll have something truly wonderful to look at from all angles.
Yes, it's been said that this V12 has B58 hints on its sound... 😅 I think the DBS looked better, but it's still a phenomenal car. The interior is fantastic, I don't care how similar it is to its brothers! Once again: lovely review!

Thank you Hagerty, we all love henry and you too for letting us have him ). I had two vanquishes and really ), like this, much better than a Ferrari c12. Would have bought one if it had four seats and the headlights were different from the other (also beautiful) models and if the price was under 300k .
Very nice video, Henry, thank you. Love the choice of hotel - Cala del Volpe near Porto Cervo - to ingress and set the scene for a brilliantly exquisite and aesthetic review. Keep doing what you do!
A Henry type of review in my view and I was not disappointed at all. Car looks stunning but in my view its a bit too big. I will be honest,I like the rear of the DB12 better but what a great car overall. Very luxurious interior with that pan roof and what a sound.
A beautiful and very powerful GT with far more conservative looks than the Dodici Cilindri ( as you would expect). The engine is obviously a masterpiece and has a wonderful throaty tone. What bothers me a bit is that these GTs are getting rather big and to my mind it’s a shame. But other than that, this Vanquish will no doubt remain as one of Aston Martin greatest. And as a reminder you pinpoint with infinite talent what these cars are all about. For us followers of your videos, this is a true blessing. Please never stop (not only driving). 👍😎
A GT car is defined by certain aspects of its specifications. So to me , any AM is a GT car ( at least the ones with 2 doors ). So why this discussion if the last models are a GT or not. The other point I have to make are the number of complaints or dislikes regarding small details inside the car. People who are able to buy such a car, usually have other cars as well if they like to drive a bit faster. Car tester , like the one in this video, always have a number of points to make. I think this is not reasonable. On top most of these tester will never be in position to buy such a car from new. But still they have to rate such a wonderful car as imperfect. That’s why we all should not follow these channels. 😊😊😊
I think Henry could inherit the torch from respectable auto journos of the past, from the era of David E. Davis, Brock Yates, et al. All the other videos of this car are hosted by guys who have yet to own a pair of leather shoes or a shirt with buttons, but are *super-excited to be here today* to read their press release-script.

Hagerty no doubt has the best editing, big props to the team.
What a fantastic video, absolute class
The first minute and a half is worthy of an Oscar for cinematography.
Hagerty is almost always that way
I wouldn't call it "Oscar worthy" but it is certainly at the level of Hollywood cinematography and surpasses all other car review channels, including Top Gear for this car in particular.
Henry's camera crew followed him to Hagerty from Carfection, and you'd almost be at pains to find a moment where it _doesn't_ show.
Low bar. Skip for me. He’s the furthest thing from Daniel Craig and so is a burgundy car.
I came to the comments to check if I was not the only one that felt that
I love that he mentions the firing order just for the sake of it
No one:
Truly no one, including the 28yr olds driving it
Lamborghini: ordine di ascenzioni

The intro is out of this world
The world is not enough...
What a crushing victory for AM! Beauty, class, presence, crushing power and a useable UI.
The gauge cluster looks cheap.

Same same.
For me Henry is hands down the most accomplished all round reviewer out there

Well done Hagerty production team!
Car looks absolutely stunning
Same as always 🤷♂️
they used the same interior in all 3 Models . Lazy and Uninspiring
@@CaptainKedah better than that joke of an anterior in the McLarens.
I was waiting for Henry to say something like this: "If this film rakes your moon or thunders your ball..."
I absolutely love the rear end, you can totally see a bit of 60's Aston in those vertically stacked tail lights!
It absolutely does and I just noticed it.
Its a cool risk in design.
I like it too.
Polarizing
I do not like it, but I do like variety. To each their own!
@@thomasschimmeyer8715 Really appreciate that perspective
For me it’s hideous, by far its weakest design point. But beauty is ….etc.
No James Bond.
Proceeds to James Bond.
Epic.
It's Gen Z humor. Self-referential "irony" that completely avoids sincerity.
i have a 23 db11 v12tt with 630hp...can't even fathom another 200hp...car must be a total monster...

The gauge cluster looks cheap.
@@avigator Then apply for a job at Aston Martin, and use your advanced knowledge of interior gauges to show the world where they went wrong. 😉

@@cassokon why watch someone you don't like? 🤷♂️
"Would have" or "would've"
@@mikeypv6 I never said I didn't like Henry. I watch all reviews of the cars I am interested in.
The first time in any car review that I rewatched the intro 4 times, well done chaps with invoking the Bond spirit! Oh what a day to be an AM fan.

Some differences but the Aston absolutely blows the Dodici Cilindri out of the water! Different class!!
Yes, sure, the 12Cilindri is a very better car than the Aston 🤭
Yes, the Ferrari is unequalled. Better in every way.
The aerial view at 1:00 reminded me of Matt Farah's comment when testing the 2021 Porsche Turbo S. "These new cars are so wide you can only run one line, there is no moving within the lane."
Stunning work
It's very good when the editor likes cars, the presenter likes cars, and apparently everyone involved likes cars. You guys do a great job.
This is one of the best automotive films ever created!! A deserved one with that car and team. THANK YOU guys!
Absolutely love this 1000 nm v12 bi turbo beauty. Torque is key....torque is king even more so for a super GT. Long live the v12 kudos to Aston Martin
Awesome presentation and content!! Thanks to Henry and the team!
A masterpiece in cinematography Henry 👌
The opening, the music, damn just beautiful. That Vanquish on the shore, beautiful yet beastly, like a predator ready to pounce.
The classiest masterpiece in this modern era. Well done Aston 🎩
This is honestly the only review you’ll need to watch for this car, I fear. This man is almost too good at his job lol
Top Class - Henry Catchpole is one of the best presenters ever.
Aston is absolutely crushing it right now. Thank god. The world is better when they are on their A game.
Awsome, but nothing will beat the beautiful sound of the 2012 V12 Vantage!
Also in a package that's not far too big for windy roads!
Awsome, but nothing will beat the beautiful sound of the Ferrari!
@@josephjewellerstotally different sounds. Both great for different reason. And a GMA T.50 sounds better than a Ferrari V12.

V12, coda tronca, clean interior and Italian scenery. Can’t ask for more
Just stunning looking, Aston Martin Vanquish just steps above Ferrari 12 cilindri.
Love what they done
Henry another amazing video keep it up 👍👍🤟🤟😍🤟
I love these old rivalries that still survive.
The best Vanquish review out of all car channels, period.
Guys, you can think a shot is cool but not everything on RUclips is award-worthy
Who would’ve thought we would just get to consume cinematic mastery like this on RUclips. Wow.
Another beautifully written and narrated piece Henry. Keep them coming

Aston Martin and Ferrari are back to having pin-up worthy GT cars!
These late Astons are so incredibly desirable. Amazing!
Astons will always stand out to me. No matter where, how, and when I see them.

Henry Catchpole... I give respect 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. You're up there with the best, man
Top notch and seriously enjoyable to watch. Thank you!
Outstanding review AGAIN Henry and Co. Right up there with Harry I think.
How is that shot at 5:09 taken? I'd love to know and try it myself! I could hopefully do some fun stuff as a drummer.
Very nice video, Henry, thank you. Love the choice of hotel - Cala del Volpe near Porto Cervo - to ingress and set the scene for a brilliantly exquisite and aesthetic review. Keep doing what you do!
Now I just need to wait 3 years for this car to be 50% less of $500k! Can’t wait!
Henry - you’re the master of automotive video content….wonderful video as ever.
Beautiful car, beautiful video! 😎
Very nice piece. I always appreciate Henry’s insight even if it’s for a car that doesn’t interest me nor one that I can afford.
It's the most beautiful car to come from Aston Martin in a while
I love the bond intros. Keep 007 alive!
That intro joke was fantastic! Well done Henry! Well done Hagerty! 👏
You and Cammisa are the reason i subscribed to Hagerty ! Pure inspiration for our small Channel

One of the greatest intros I have ever seen
The best Aston of modern times, I’d really enjoy owning one! 😀👍
Vaniquish is real masterpiece in our times. Real GT. V12 classic.
I enjoy that you can be part of the archaeological record with this thing. Nice observation Henry.
Beautifully shot and edited, and nicely written by Henry
The cinematography on this bloody hell
Definitely an easy choice over the new-gen Bentley Continental GT.
compare 2 foreign owned UK brands.....LOL
@@josephjewellers Foreign-owned but still made in Britain.
That intro could have been done by Steven Spielberg and nobody would argue 👌
