One of the greatest films i have ever seen. Script, Acting, Action sequences, Emotion..&did i mention.. thee cars? 😂. The film was flawless. I put this in a similar league with Apollo 13. Hail to the Director James Mangold and Rob Johnson (vehicle director)
God I miss the 60's...the real sixties before all the drugs and politics ruined everything. I want to see this too even though I know the story; it looks like it captures the sixties atmosphere.
I was watching the movie as a mechanic apprentice and part-time pizza driver...(4.1/5) About as accurate to history as it needs to be. Stay tuned for my Nick Hodges-esque review.
I am really interested in this movie... But I hope they go light on the comedy.... And I am not sure about Matt Damon in the Shelby role..trying to keep an open mind until I view the movie.
So let me get this straight... Ferrari is corporate but Ford is this wild new guy in the automobile industry... is this a comedy? Is Seth Rogan going to pop out somehwere?!
@@lucozade8373 Racing... is this thing done with cars... you should check it out, it can be interesting. Anyway, I might be wrong, but I have heard that Ford was sort of into cars... correct me please if I am wrong! I am always willing to learn!!! Do tell me how Ford is the new guy in cars... I am all ears...
@@lucozade8373 Look, for those really interested in these things... Every one knows how Ford tried to buy Ferrari to expand his corporation, but Enzo Ferrari said no, since his only passion was racing... he built cars just to finance THAT. So Henry Ford II tried then to bully Ferrari by beating him at his on game: racing... (wich worked once... or twice?!, who cares) by hiring the best engineer he could find and the best driver... and it ended how it ended...

@@Skerdy What your link doesn't go into, and I'm curious to see if the movie really covers it correctly, is that it wasn't really Ford engineers that straightened out the GT40 to the point where they took a 1,2,3 finish at Le Mans, it was Holman and Moody, a Charlotte NC based performance shop that had a racing contract with Ford, the first version of the GT40, the MK1 was basically a British Lotus race car that they tried a Ford V8 in, to quote Lee Holman it was an "abortion", Holman and Moody re-engineered the car pretty much from stem to stern, the aerodynamics, suspension, steering, brakes and pretty much everything else was redesigned by H&M and that's the car that actually was the success. The story the movie makers should have told was the one of Max Balchowsky and his wife Ina, they hand built a car from scrapyard parts in 1959 that beat EVERY European sports car thrown at it in SCCA competition for over 10 years, Max and Ina built the car on nothing more than their garage floor and powered it with a 401 Buick Nailhead engine at a total cost of just over $1,600, they beat Ferrari, Jaguar, Aston Martin, Alfa Romero and even the Maserati Birdcage which was supposed to be the most advanced race car in the world at the time, Carroll Shelby, Dan Gurney and many other famous drivers of the time were all co-drivers at various races throughout the cars racing career, they named the car Old Yeller after taking inspiration from the Disney movie, they equated the car with a junkyard dog, and it beat EVERYTHING. Max Balchowsky is the man who set up the 2 Mustang's and 3 Chargers for the movie Bullitt along with too many other movie cars to list, check out Max and Ina's story by Googling "Max Balchowsky and Old Yeller II" it's truly inspirational and it's the real "David vs Goliath" story in motorsports.
0:50 “thats not what the film is about” “Its about brotherhood and camaraderie” Well the title gives the wrong impression. They should of called it ‘Shelby’. But cant wait for the movie anyway :)
“Ford vs Ferrari is a movie about...”. a story of real men from the 60’s being portrayed by, well, people who can apparently only pretend to be real men 😂😂😂
The Problem with CGI is not CGI in and of itself. CGI Can look great, indistinguishable from reality, BUT!!! we must not forget several things which brings CGI down. the First of which is how its used. SOOOOOO many productions have mis-used cgi and vfx in the worst ways possible, because the writers of the films have stretched way and beyond production costs, and look to cgi to provide miracles that more than often can be solved practically. But to do practical effects, means that the directors must find solutions to their problem and or accept what he or she has shot during principle photography, They must work things out prior and get it in camera. This use to be the case with film productions until the use of CGI, which enables directors to break all basic film making rules and execute every bad idea and mistake possible. The biggest of all is the simplest to get right, and thats the use of the CG camera. CGI is almost always detectable not always due to the render quality, but rather the use of the camera. Simply put.. in reality the camera is constrained to whats physically and practically possible unlike The cgi camera which is capable of doing anything. As such directors and writers come up with ideas that are more surreal and fantastical than reality, which immediately breaks the believably of the shot. Camera flying around 10,000 mph in grandees panoramic shots. flying under cars through windows or traveling with a bullet as it goes through the victims body. All things that could just about never be pulled off in reality. Cgi visual effects does not mean money making shot. but that's how hollywood has treated it, they use CGI as a means to uplift their bad stories, as such the Effect has evolved into a gimmick. As for the look of cgi, again, this depends on the production and the production time fame and budget. Prior cgi in films, a small budget ment either changing the story to best fit the budget, or reducing desired ideas to fit the budget or doing things really really cheaply. And making do with the results. With the introduction of cgi, it enabled writers and directors to get much of what they desired. The best films used the best studios who had access to the best talent, which were well funded and had the best tools available. Small to low budget films typically has directors and writers looking to impress the world, often going far beyond their budgets with grandiose ideas, hoping CGI will be inexpensive enough to get their dreams done. Problem is, underpaid crews, far less talent, and not enough proper tools and equipment to get all the work done. And to make matters worst. Big budget films, mis use their budgets, pilling it all into the top 10% of production directors actors, principle photography elements and personnel. leaving the scraps for post and cgi, which are asked to do 70% or more of the actual film!!!! which leaves vfx houses underpaid overworked and in a financial hole. If you remove cgi from productions today. almost no production could be completed. CGI is so required in todays film making that without it, virtually no standard film could be made. Even when people claim films to be practical. they are not. Post today is cgi, color grading, digital cleanup and alterations. cgi, compositing, cgi. Principal photography use to take several months of shooting, Today its at best a month. 3 to five weeks of on site filming, unless its a major Major block buster film with chapters. what has reduced the time-fame for PS... The use of CGI. fix it in post.
Not unusual for vintage vehicles especially vintage Ferraris. The Ferrari 250 GTO is around $50+ million and an actual Ford GT40 used in '66 would probably cost around $20+ million. Just those two alone are already around $70+ million.
one thing is true : Ferrari is still around in GT and F1 racing .. where is Ford ???? in Le Mans 1966, Ford did not beat Ferrari, they beat the rules .. like they recently did in WEC racing, to disappear after 1 year, because you can cheat once, not all the time ...
@Seraph909 What you say is historical correct. As is the fact that today Ford is paying every year around 10 Mio $ to the owner of the Le Mans track ACO (Automobile Club d'Ouest) to have the 2 last corners (chicane + last one before straight) named "the FORD curves" (like the is also the "Porsche curves"). And ACO is also the organiser of the 24H of Le Mans. And ACO decides on the BOP (Balance of Performance) which is supposed to make cars from different constructors equal in performance = lap times (they do this balancing by changing weight of the car, driving height, air-intake/restrictors, limiting the air pressure on the turbos, .... Every single 24H of Le Mans Porsche is spending on top tf the annual fee they pay to have the Porsche curves having their name , around 12 Mio € for just renting hospitality space around the track from ACO. And Ford has spend 8 Mio the past 4 years, per year on that. Ferrari NEVER has purchased any service from ACO, so if they win ,they really are the best (car). I say this because this is the truth, not because I am a blind Ferrari fan .... I have been driving Le Mans track, I raced it a couple of years ago .. in a 488 Ferrari ...
Did josh Lucas really just say that movies are, “...made by computers...”? 3:15 Pshh cgi is created by very real human artists who are extremely skilled and talented, who work very hard in an industry that treats them and pays them like shit. THEY make modern blockbuster movies...not the dumb actor or ditsy actress screaming and posing for camera
The chemistry between Matt and Christian is just incredible. Loved the movie, hope they can work together again soon.
Christian Bale mustache is just legendary.
This was an impressive film. What just struck me is Christian Bale and Josh Lucas were both in "American Psycho" one of Bale's best films.
This is one of those movies that you will go to cinema, sit down and watch, even though you already knew the end of the story
David it’s never about the end result it’s about the journey there
This movie will be a big flop !
I don't know it actually.
One of the greatest films i have ever seen. Script, Acting, Action sequences, Emotion..&did i mention.. thee cars? 😂. The film was flawless. I put this in a similar league with Apollo 13. Hail to the Director James Mangold and Rob Johnson (vehicle director)
Christian Bale teaching Noah how to drive is so sweet
Jason Bourne hit Batman with a loaf of Wonder Bread. Batman throw a box of cereal back at Jason Bourne.
AthenaSaints that’s all I need to hear 😂
Looks like they had fun.
Finally a movie for men.
With two girls starring in it
Brian Choi hey for women too. Love fast cars especially the classic.
I am so excited to see this movie!! LOVE my Fords and their history!
man that kid is going all out to stand out
And when he says 200 mill in Ferrari’s it was probably less than 50 Ferraris
Holy shit that’s Bales real voice?
He's British by birth.
Welsh is British,and he actually considers himself english
you've always heard his real voice. That's his native accent
@Digonto Zahid If you're going to try and correct someone you should at least know what you're talking about.
Digonto Zahid It’s not welsh🤣
OMG, Batman and Bourne team up to outrace Ferrari in a Ford Pinto, this is going to be the best movie ever!!
0:19 on repeat
Josh Lucas, where the hell have you been?
I missed his sexy voice.
I wish for two things for the franchise, the 64, 65 season next (daytona coupe ), and have Josh Bolin play shelby (look more like him from that era).
Brolin
I really wanna see this even tho I know the stotry.
God I miss the 60's...the real sixties before all the drugs and politics ruined everything. I want to see this too even though I know the story; it looks like it captures the sixties atmosphere.
I have to see this fight start to finish.

Michales rivut we neesd it note than ever
Let's hope no one walked across the set while Christian was doin' his thang! LOL
Let's hope no one walked across the track when he was filming a driving scene, he'd have run 'em over.
not funny ..

Wilson Beckett, Exactly.
Get about 30 seconds into anything with Hollywood types and they start blaspheming. Usually about 30 seconds
Define blasphemy.

Oh c'mon. He's not saying that people aren't involved in CGI but that "in camera" live action movie making is becoming rare.
2 actors that have turned into Old Farts before their time.
Catriona & that kid don't look that old to me...:)
God why did they pick Matt Damon? His best role was the Matt Damon puppet in Team America. They already ruined this movie by casting him.
he's great
Boring, let's hope the film has some depth.
A boy learns how to "drive" an automatic and thinks he's a man.....sad.
