If you're hoping for a film here to compete with Ford vs Ferrari, you will be sadly disappointed.
Although I had no prior knowledge of the man behind the legend, it almost seems to just be the story of a poor soldier mechanic coming home from the war and wants to make smaller and cheaper tractors, and risks the family farm to succeed. Then has clutch problems when he becomes rich, confronts Enzo Ferrari about improving them, gets told to get lost and so decides to become the competition. However there's no outcome of the success of the cars vs Ferrari. It focuses more on him losing his first wife, not being a great father, and changing from a common working man to a rich snob with little to no heart.
If that's the kinda story you're looking for, then this movie might be for you, but what most of us wanted to seexwas the history of Lamborghini till the end of his life. Not inserts of his imagination struggling to drag race Enzo Ferrari and then driving off lonely from his mansion before a messege states a historical fact and fades to black.
It sets up a few characters along the way that I'd liked to have known what happened to them? Such as Matteo, and probably the most disappointing is not showing how such models of the Countach came to be, from the concept to the design and how it was not designed as anything more than for looks etc.
It really began like it was going to be getting to the flesh and bones of the story, but almost seemed like it just ran out of gas and so they quickly wrapped it up and just quickly skipped over pages in the last few chapters.
Hopefully one day this story will get a better telling, perhaps a series to tell it right? But for now, don't bother with this one. Go over Lamborghini's Wikipedia page instead and save yourself from this story that's not the way it should be told with one of those abrupt endings that make you say, "is that it??"
