    Movie keeps you at 7000 rpm

    Ford V Ferrari is one of the best movies I've seen this year, and for someone who has little interest in cars besides minivans and SUVs, that's saying a lot. Just like the race cars produced by its namesakes, Ford v. Ferrari is sleek and fast; a powerful and expensive machine. A supremely well-balanced combination of corporate rivalry, on-track competitiveness and human drama.

    CHRISTIAN BALE

    Jesus Christ - Bale does it again.

    Great script, great casting, incredible acting from everyone, but especially Bale.

    I know nothing of cars or racing, nor do I care about either yet....

    To start off, I have always hated racing. Yes, hated. It think it's a ridiculous waste of resources, and boring to watch. I have zero interest in cars - and thus I know absolutely nothing of the history. I knew nothing of this film beyond reading the blurb before I started watching it, so I was very interested to see whether I would like it at all. I did. Despite being so uninterested in the subject, the film got me interested in the story, and especially during the final race I was on the edge of seat not knowing what would happen. Fantastic acting job from both Damon and Bale, usual. They never disappoint. Excellent writing, directing, cutting, sound editing.. A very whole package overall.

    To finish off; I am STILL not interested in cars or racing, but this film stands on its own even so.

    An exhilarating and emotional ride

    A lot of notes were hit by Ford v Ferrari. The characters are fleshed out very well and give you the emotional attachment you're looking for in a movie. Bale and Damon's performances are great; they pull you into the story and completely disappear into their roles. James Mangold proves, once again, to be a master behind the camera. The action scenes are shot to perfection and will have you biting your nails.

    The film's technical aspects were top-notch as well. Wait for this film to be nominated for sound design and editing. These technical aspects, during the climax of the film, will blow your hair back and give you goosebumps.

    All in all, this film provides a pleasing experience for the crowd that not many films can even come close to delivering. I loved about every second of it, despite its long runtime.

    special

    I love Christian Bale. For each of his roles. But , in this case, I adore him. Because he is real great. Because the"chemistry " between him and Matt Damon is perfect. But the film gives more . An admirable portrait of Enzo Ferrari by Remo Girone,fine job of Noah Jupe , Tracy Letts proposing a great Henry Ford II and each scene being admirable crafted. A film about race, family and passion. A special one, in high measure, in profound sense.

    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      To prepare for his role, Christian Bale took race driving lessons at the Bondurant High Performance Driving School. The school's founder had been a friend of Ken Miles, so Bale got to hear stories of the 1960s racing scene. Robert Nagle, Bale's instructor and the film's stunt coordinator, called Bale "hands down the best actor I've ever trained."
    • Goofs
      In real life, Enzo Ferrari sold 50% of his company to Fiat S.p.A. in 1969, not in 1963 after declining Ford Motor Company's buyout offer.
    • Quotes

      Carroll Shelby: [narration] There's a point at 7,000 RPM... where everything fades. The machine becomes weightless. Just disappears. And all that's left is a body moving through space and time. 7,000 RPM. That's where you meet it. You feel it coming. It creeps up on you, close in your ear. Asks you a question. The only question that matters. Who are you?

    • Crazy credits
      Epilogue:  "Revered by racing fans worldwide, Ken Miles was inducted into the Motorsports Hall of Fame. Carroll Shelby became one of the most successful and celebrated sports car designers in history. The Ford GT40, developed by Shelby and Miles, won Le Mans in 1966, 1967, 1968 and 1969. It remains the only American built car ever to win the 24 hours of Le Mans."
