Ford v. Ferrari great period piece

Rating: 8/10 (20 January 2020)

Ford v Ferrari celebrates friendship, and the good, old fashioned underdog spirit, going up against the odds to achieve the impossible.
Bale and Damon make a formidable pair, jiving between friendship, respect, banter and an obscene amount of technical knowledge. Through their performances, they make the friendship and engineering relationship between 'man and machine' personal. And as the film finally waves that checkered flag, Mangold creates pure racing at its finest.
