James Mangold has crafted a funny, loving, and surprisingly moving film about fathers, sons, friends, colleagues, and mavericks. It is an almost irresistible film, and I have no problem admitting that I ate it all up. Ford v Ferrari is one of my favorite films of the year. Read more

Ford v Ferrari is very well shot, directed, acted, paced, and everything in between. Surprisingly, it’s a beast of a film at two and a half hours but it never feels that long. Read more

The level of adrenalin I felt just watching it is enough for it to win awards, but the acting and direction gets it over the line in 5th gear, it is top notch.

The film builds to the race in France, but Mangold is in top form when he’s remixing and interrogating Americana, from country in Walk the Line to the western in Logan. Read more

Between its thrilling racing sequences and underlying commentary, Ford v Ferrari makes for an entertaining spin on the traditional sports biography. Read more

Problem is, it takes too long to get to these moments. The narrative loses itself in the politics of corporations and in the superficial conversations about the art of the race. The beating heart of Ford v Ferrari is in its climactic final act, which is then let down by the abrupt emotional appeals of the denouement. But, if only for a moment, the film pushes to 7,000 RPMs. Read more

Le Mans ’66 takes us around a well-worn track and every bend is easily anticipated. It’s like a Rocky movie made for the road instead of the boxing ring, with Bale squaring up against business bigwigs, his racing rivals, and tiresome cinema conventions. Read more

Not just accessible to car buffs, the film has its adrenaline-rushing moments, focusing firmly on the personalities of the ones involved. Yet, on the other hand, I found the car racing scenes way too repetitive and the script mounted with cheap formulaic attractions, including a dull brawl between Shelby and Miles with the latter's wife as a spectator, and Mr. Ford’s tears of contentment and affliction after a high-speed ride.

No amount of admittedly fantastic sound design, well shot racing sequences, or frequent gear shift shots make up for a banal ride. Read more

Een zeer sterke biopic welke natuurlijk niet geheel waarheidsgetrouw is maar de belangrijkste momenten in eren houdt. Boeiend, vermakelijk en spannend vanaf het eerste moment tot het einde. Read more

Matt Damon speelt op overtuigende wijze de rol van Caroll Shelby terwijl Christian Bale echt fenomenaal is als de briljante doch lastige racecoureur Ken Miles.
