- Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Ford v Ferrari is not just a tale of competing corporations. It’s about modern-day gladiators, men who are driven to excel and who have a passion for what they do, and most of all a passion to win.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Mangold’s film could be seen as a metaphor for his own industry, Shelby a producer trying to protect his creative talent, engineer and driver Ken Miles (Christian Bale), from the big studio (Ford) holding the purse strings.
- Herman Dhaliwal @ Cinema Sanctum
- Excerpt: Engaging performances and thrilling race sequences make the old fashioned charms of the film work wonderfully.
- Bavner Donaldo @ Cinejour [Indonesian]
- [New] | M Enois Duarte @ High-Def Digest.com
- Excerpt: Based on a true story, James Mangold’s Ford v Ferrari is a sensationally stirring sports drama starring Matt Damon and Christian Bale.
- Candice Frederick @ The Wrap
- Roderick Heath @ Film Freedonia
- Excerpt: Ford v Ferrari certainly doesn’t reinvent the cinematic wheel. But it is the the sort of film that gives popular moviemaking a good name.
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: The racing scenes are spectacular but it’s the human element that provides the most sparks.
- Blake Howard @ Dark Horizons
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: A winning (if overearnest) depiction of manly friendship, with some pretty thrilling (if only technically so) racing stuff. But it doesn’t see its potential to be actually culturally significant.
- Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: Even at two-and-a-half hours, Ford v Ferrari never drags. The story is rich and the acting is stellar across the board.
- Simon Miraudo @ Student Edge
- Excerpt: Stunning race sequences and a frisky Christian Bale compete against a lame and overlong script.
- Jared Mobarak @ JaredMobarak.com
- Excerpt: Ken is the story’s hero. And it’s great to see Bale excel in that space with some brilliant comedic flair to go with his trademarked brooding temperament.
- Aaron Neuwirth @ We Live Entertainment
- Excerpt: Here’s a film properly fueled by terrific filmmaking and performances, along with the right kind of Americana.
- Matt Oakes @
- Excerpt: A rip-roaring and irreverent crowdpleaser glued to two excellent performances from Matt Damon and Christian Bale, ‘Ford v. Ferrari’ fires all on cylinders to prove that great blockbusting entertainment is even better when it’s not hogtied by existing IP.
- Diego Salgado @ Guía del Ocio [Spanish]
- Don Shanahan @ Every Movie Has a Lesson
- Excerpt: All of this tuned-up and torqued testosterone makes for a one hell of an entertaining show.
- Josh Taylor @ www.forgetfulfilmcritic.com/
- Excerpt: James Mangold’s very manly and patriotic sportscar racing movie Ford v Ferrari is about as slick as big Hollywood blockbusters come. It’s also a damn good time at the movies. The picture is a crowd-pleaser that offers unadulterated movie spectacle.
