Le Mans 66 - Gegen jede Chance

When barreling down the straightaway or maneuvering around opponents at dangerously high speed, Bale’s focused expression subtly communicates the character’s undeniable pleasure behind the wheel.

You don’t need to be a car person to appreciate the conventional but crackling human drama that animates “Ford v Ferrari.”

...road race biopic fires on all cylinders.

While the film is long, it rips along at extreme velocity — and not just when it’s on the racetrack — thanks to a panoply of colourful, entertaining characters.

The film is a visual treat, an expertly crafted piece of sun-burnished Americana, with enough thrilling sequences to make it worthy of a big-screen excursion.
