Ferrari ends up being such a slog of a movie in place of what should've been a thrilling an interesting portrait of a complex figure. The performances might be solid and there's an effective moment here or there but the word that comes to mind when describing the film as a whole is flat. This filmmaker and cast telling a story with this interesting a subject matter should've amounted to a lot more than it ultimately did. For as exhilarating as motor racing is supposed to be I have to say I found the film to be overwhelmingly dull when all was said and done.
The whole aesthetic is totally without life which is the last thing I would've expected for a director of Michael Mann's calibre. Mann takes a very documentarian approach to the directing and it just robs the film of any energy or sense of direction. From almost the opening minutes there a serious lack of momentum. The scenes play out in very beat for beat type way with no sense of flair and as impressive as the racing sequences are they're too few and far between to save this movie from the drag that it ends up being. All the scenes away from the track are framed in the most shot/reverse shot manner imaginable so almost none of the dramatic moments had any sort of impact on me. There's an extremely effective moment in the 3rd act that felt like Mann was finally adding some stakes to the whole thing by then it was too little too late for me.
The script here is painfully unremarkable and it rears its head in how it portrays its main character. Adam Driver is solid in the role as Enzo Ferrari, though I wouldn't rate it as one of his best performances, but I never really found the depiction of the character to be that compelling. It's established early on that Ferrari puts up a wall around everyone but as an audience member it put me at a distance from his character. I didn't think there were enough moments where his guard went down and we see what really drives him so as a result I just found him to be a bit of a rich egomaniac with motivations I didn't find to be that interesting. There's a love triangle that's set up with Penelope Cruz and Shailene Woodley's characters that almost felt like it should've been the scripts main focus but after a while it just fades into the background for the central race to take up more screen time. Driver and Cruz have good chemistry but I never really thought that Mann got to the heart of their relationship and the exposition that's given on this three way dynamic feels like it comes in the complete wrong order. I was just waiting for characters to find out information I already knew and it just kills the pacing and any impact that these reveals could've had.
I never would've guessed that Ferrari was a long time passion project for Michael Mann because nothing in the final product gives any sense of a vision for this story. It's totally unimpressive on a script and technical level and the few effective moments and impressive race sequences aren't enough to save the total bore that Ferrari ended up being as a whole.

"Ferrari" is a Biography - Drama movie in which we watch the story of Enzo Ferrari and more specifically the crisis of 1957 while he decides his team to join the famous Mille Miglia, a 1,000 miles race across Italy.
I have to admit that I was not disappointed by this movie but I expected something different than what I watched. I was expecting more information about Enzo Ferrari's story before becoming famous and not so much personal information. The interpretation of Adam Driver who played as Enzo Ferrari was remarkable and I am sure that if the plot was different then he would be even better. Another interpretation that has to be mentioned was Penélope Cruz's who played as Laura Ferrari and she was equally good. In conclusion, I have to say that "Ferrari" is a nice movie, a bit misleading but worth watching.

Definitely NOT a car movie and definitely NOT a gripping dramatic portrayal either. It's not a flop alright, but it is an awkward misfire for sure.
The bad: Director Michael Mann is famous for several terrific action thrillers in the past (HEAT), but he has never excelled at making a true drama (on the contrary) and this is the exact problem with this movie, because it is severely LACKING in true drama.
It's lackluster, uneventful and simply going through the motions. Almost the entire storyline is about money problems for producing racecars and lots of wife / lover quarrels / issues. What's suppose to be exciting about that?!
Not even the car races (the few that were featured) were thrilling to watch. Those races didnt look bad for sure, but they werent exhilirating either. Quite average to be honest. Was this a car movie? NOPE it was NOT.
What is it then? This story is entirely focussed on the CHARACTER of Mister Ferrari, played by Adam Driver. I really value this actor's performance in many other great movies, he's definitely a great actor, but he didnt nail it this time. And I am being really polite now...
BEWARE: use subtitles because director Michael Mann decided to let all the ITALIAN characters speak in almost unrecognizable English with a terrible accent. THAT was THE most annoying thing, that really PUT ME OFF entirely. What jibberish accents.

This felt sadly dreadful to me, for the most part. Ferrari is a film where it feels like very few people involved cared about what they were making. On paper, the idea to focus on one brief period of time was a good one, rather than trying to capture a single figure's life story. Adam Driver is probably my favorite actor who's risen to prominence since 2010, and Michael Mann's a filmmaker whose work I generally enjoy. The idea of them teaming up to make a movie sounded promising, but the execution here was just lifeless and strangely amateur.
Much of the film's shot with a floaty, aimless camera that frames things strangely in an attempt to look unique, or because of simple incompetence; the way it sometimes shakes and drifts or zooms in and out seemingly by accident. The fact some scenes abruptly end and other scenes just linger for what feels like forever. I hated the way this looked and felt. I have no idea what Mann's going for here, or if he's simply lost his touch as a filmmaker.
Actors look either confused or bored - sometimes both - for the entire film. I have no idea what I'm supposed to care about when it comes to Enzo Ferrari as a figure. Maybe Adam Driver captured his essence well, but if so, his essence is boring and I don't know why they made a film about him. There's no real pacing or engaging build in the narrative, actors mumble their lines, and the dialogue I could make out tended to sound weirdly uninspired. Penelope Cruz felt like she was done particularly dirty by the lackluster material she was given to work with. It just felt like one boring scene after one boring scene after another boring scene.
The final act is watchable and saves the film from being an outright failure. Ferrari has a stupidly high budget, but I think much of it went into capturing some of those fairly stunning race sequences. Everything else was so dull, lifeless, directionless, and shockingly amateur, though. It's a surprising mess of a film.

I'm a big fan of racing and if you're a fan of racing you're invariably a fan of Ferrari. So when Michael Mann helms the Enzo Ferrari biopic, there will be expectations.
Unfortunately this presentation is uninspired. I really don't agree with the casting choice of Adam Driver for Enzo Ferrari. The only thing the two men have in common is seemingly height. Driver exudes an energy that is not the neurotic Italian man that is the brains behind Ferrari. The essence of Ferrari and Italia doesn't come across in a meaningful way. Driver possesses the menace that is Ferrari, but not much else.
A fan of classic automobiles will surely enjoy the various display of now unattainable rides in the movie though.

Lo sapevi?
- QuizBoth Ferrari and Maserati cars are painted red. Though confusing for the viewer, this is historically accurate. At the time the film is set, cars were coloured according to nationality. Italian cars were red, French ones Blue, German ones White and British ones dark green.
- BlooperThere are two occasions where characters watch live TV coverage of events, something that wouldn't happen in 1957 as such sporting events would be covered by newsreel not live TV.
In the first scene Enzo watches his cars racing live in a Grand Prix, and in the second his wife Laura watches live coverage of the post Mille Miglia press conference.
- Citazioni
Enzo Ferrari: How'd she handle?
Alfonso de Portago: Good.
Enzo Ferrari: This is not, "How was lunch?" "Good." I want to know brake wear. I want steering, suspension, gear ratios, final drive. If it's going to run in the Mille Miglia, it's got to be one hundred percent.
