WHAT WE THINK:

OUR SCORE:

4 out of 5 starsNOT TO BE MISSED.

JUST A FEW WORDS:

A very good film: it moves, it keeps you on the edge of your seat biting your nails, it makes you angry and joyful and it perfectly captures the idea of racing in a car.

PROS:

  • Great pace.
  • Great editing.
  • Acting.
  • Emotional.

CONS:

  • Maybe in the central part, it lacks a bit of “drive” (ha!)
  • Slight over-dramatization of some events.

GENERAL INFO:

Le Mans '66 - Ford vs Ferrari (2019) Action, Biography, Drama | 152min | 14 November 2019 (Italy) 8.1
Director: James MangoldWriter: Jez Butterworth, John-Henry ButterworthStars: Matt Damon, Christian Bale, Jon BernthalSummary: As Enzo Ferrari's fast Rosso-Corsa racing cars dominate the mid-1960s motorsport world, the American car designer, Carroll Shelby, is forced to retire after winning the demanding 1959 '24 Hours of Le Mans' endurance race. But, before long, an unexpected proposition by the Vice President of Henry Ford's motor company, Lee Iacocca, will offer an opportunity to beat the Italians at their own game. Now, under those pressing circumstances, the British sports car driver and racing engineer, Ken Miles, reluctantly agrees to lend a hand and improve the firm's image, as Ford's race team has less than ninety days to rewrite history. As a result, the non-conformist duo comes up with the mighty Ford GT40 Mk I high-performance racing car. Can Shelby and Miles break Ferrari's streak? Written by Nick Riganas
