neutral · AI labelView post →As a cinephile, it’s a pleasure to see a film in which every aspect of the production works perfectly. DUNE: PART 1 & 2 come to mind, and FORD V FERRARI. Let me tell you: Jon M. Chu’s #WICKED is a fantastic piece of filmmaking. Everyone involved is at the top of their game. They do not miss a trick.

neutral · AI labelView post →I not much of a race movie fan, but goddamn Ford V Ferrari is a fantastic movie. Christian Bale and Matt Damon have great chemistry.

neutral · AI labelView post →Ford V Ferrari (2019) has become a comfort movie for me kinda like how Speed Racer (2008) also became a comfort movie. Idk what it is about these guys who just love machines and racing so much but are held back at every corner by corporate bigwigs only caring for appearances fueled by greed 🏎️
positive · AI labelView post →every racing film should end with Rascal Flatt's country classic "Life Is a Highway". F1. Ford V Ferrari. Fast Five. They could all be improved with this simple alteration
neutral · AI labelView post →Ford V. Ferrari? Great name. Grand Prix? Great name. Days of Thunder? Great name. F1: The Movie? Terrible name. All you had to do was write Formula One. You already own it.

neutral · AI labelView post →FORD V FERRARI: excellent movie. Did any of that need to happen? No. But like Carroll Shelby says, there are some people who have to do a thing so badly it'll drive them "clean out of their minds" if they don't. Also gorgeous to look at.

positive · AI labelView post →Also here are my plane movie reviews: THE WHALE: Thumbs down. An attempt at gritty realism but everything but Hong Chau's Liz feels phony. EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE: Thumbs up. Lives up to the hype. FORD V FERRARI: Thumbs up. Just a damn good movie.
positive · AI labelView post →By the way, F1 is the best film about racing since Ford V. Ferrari but maybe even since Talladega Nights. Damn good time at the movies, see it big, see it loud. The type of thing Summer Movie Season is about.

positive · AI labelView post →This reminds me the whole "Ford V Ferrari" where they went "there's no CGI in this movie they did real stunts"... And like yes the car are real, thenmain one, the background and the accidents where pure CGi. It's an amazing collaboration between both. But "CGI is Bad" outlets don't get it
neutral · AI labelView post →it's the 2025 movie I disliked most not because there was anything particularly wrong with it, it's just so vacant. it's a credit card commercial. it disappears when you look straight at it. future dads will stand stock still watching Ford V Ferrari in the den/family room, not this

neutral · AI labelView post →Yep. It is strange. Ford V Ferrari is a sport based film I really like.

The fascinating and inspiring story of the Ford Motor Company's first venture into racing. Even with no interest in racing or cars, Ford v Ferrari mesmerizes from beginning to end.

neutral · AI labelView post →Click here for a video version of this review: https://youtu.be/IByQpyGV9Lg Despite not being a big fan of track car racing - I’m more of a rally man - the chance to see Matt Damon and Christian Bale lead in a true life story attracted me to Ford v Ferrari. It’s a very good movie that tells the tale of the development of Ford’s race program to topple Ferrari as the champions of Le Mans.

neutral · AI labelView post →Well made sports-racing movie with excellent acting by Damon and Bale (no surprise there) and the racing sequences were great, not to mention the sound design. Kind of was concerned there wouldn't be enough story to fill the nearly 2.5 hour runtime, but this kept me engaged, though the ending was a bit anticlimactic. Still, good work from James Mangold. 4.5/5
positive · AI labelView post →I think Ford v Ferrari suffers from mismarketing. I don't mean that it was poorly marketed, and that the trailers made it look bad or anything. Just that it was marketed inaccurately. When I was keeping myself abreast of this project, it seemed very much that the insinuation was that the movie would be a battle between Bale's and Damon's respective characters. That this would essentially be the run-through of the whole film, and the climax would feature one emerging victorious over the other.…
neutral · AI labelView post →I never expected a sports film, let alone one based on a true story, to impress me so damn much. James Mangold offers one of the best, if not the best sports movie ever. With award-worthy performances from both Christian Bale and Matt Damon, Ford v Ferrari (aka Le Mans ‘66) has characters so exceptionally-written and so emotionally compelling that I felt like crying by the end of the film. The races are riveting and entertaining, but it’s the beautiful screenplay that gets me. Definitely, one…
