Review of Ford v Ferrari (2019) by 4A-Jz — 20 Nov 2019

I have watched many movies about cars like the fast and furious (of course) or the 2014 need for speed movie. but ive never really come across anything like this before. sure it is based on the actual story, but the way it had been reimagined was so interesting.

whenever I watch a scene from the 24 hours of le mans in 1966, I always laughed at the crashes and cars flying all over the track, but this movie really made this event feel like a living hell that you would have to be out of your mind to take on.

the cars were weathered like they came out of it as well, the crashes look absolutely fatal and deadly to you if you're not careful enough. the characters weren't the best, but they did do most of the things the actual people did.

the cars weren't the real deal but they were beautiful and sounded evil. a really nice way to show the "beauty of insanity". the way they portrayed ferrari really made me hate how ferrari shot at ford and really refreshed me when they were destroyed at le mans.

this movie overall is not just about retelling a legendary story from the 60s, it's about the stupidly insane things 2 people can do in a few years to beat an automaker that had been racing for way way longer.
