Review of Ford v Ferrari (2019) by Schnitzelpoof — 08 Dec 2019
An excellent movie, and a cinematic delight. Interesting, endearing characters, and an interesting period of car history (that I knew nothing of.).
The plot is well aided by superb acting, particularly from Christian Bale.
It comes to tell the viewer a tale in a fascinating and fun manner. No politics or preaching. This movie is done to provide you, the movie-goer, with a good time. In 2019, that's not to be taken for granted.
My minor complaints are that the rivalry with Ferarri could have been fleshed out a bit - his driver, in particular, is reduced to a mean expression; and that the ending, although taken from reality, leads to a sudden shift in the theme of the film, that in my opinion takes away from the impact of the main event.
Still, one of the best movies of this year.
