Review of Ford v Ferrari (2019) by Axet — 24 Jan 2020
Conventionally crafted but with today's state-of-the-art VFX, this well acted sweeping true story of racing and the broader auto industry fires on all cylinders. (Unlike the also 1960's period set ridiculous and ridiculously over-rated "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood", this actually has a strong story!) Despite some of the best racing sequences ever filmed it surpasses previous racing film entries because of its human drama and is the rare outing these days that lives up to the praise.
Like last year's "Green Book" this is what Hollywood and only Hollywood can deliver so well. Had they cut about 10 minutes in the end to match the pace set in the beginning, it would rate even higher here.
