Imagine making a movie called Ford v Ferrari, and giving Ferrari driver Bandini just a constant evil grin, no lines. Not one. Making Ferrari boss Enzo an a-hole. He uses translator, but when it comes to insulting he becomes Hamlet. As for the Le Mans 66', the racing scenes are weak. Miles behind Bandini, he passes him. And he is still one lap behind. The gap is 8,5 miles now. Then boom! He is right behind him again on the very next scene. And this is a 2 and a half hour movie by the way. Some other scenes are ridiculous. Leo Beebe calls a guy on pit and makes him show the sign EZ to slow Miles. He makes million more terrible things like that. Better call the movie Ford vs Leo Beebe. Only good thing about this movie is acting by Bale, as expected. Other than that, it is just another big Hollywood production to make big money by stupifying everything in the story (1917 does the same), because the Hollywood formula demands it. Dumb movies make money. What a time to be alive...
