Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Blistering performances.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

but worth a viewing, especially if you'd like a quick primer on the history of Enzo and enjoy viewing old race cars. Movie is not about his automobiles, but focuses mostly on Enzo's life.First, film is not the usual Hollywood big budget production, but more calm like British / French films. It does seem to go "long" in some places, but watchable anyway. Some crazy camera angles in race car scenes.Film is narrated by "Enzo" who is describing his life to a reporter. Flashbacks start with Enzo's first experience of race cars as a child to race driver, marriage and mistress, Alfa race team, children, World War II, his own factory, and failed Ford merger.Goes back and forth from present day to past. Reporter aspect is weird, never figured him out.I read Enzo's autobiography twice ( which I recommend to really get a feel for Enzo) and this movie does not cover much of what is in his book (the history of his "Prancing Horse", specifics of the 1957 accident at Mille Miglia) Still, the movie brings to the screen most of his book's spirit, a kind man with a dream and determination who created a wonderful legacy.Grazie Enzo

This is the supposed story of one of the most famous characters in auto-racing from his childhood in the early part of the last century to the his death in 1988. The film seems to have been shot in English with Italian and American actors.Having seen a number of films starring Sergio Castellitto, I was expecting this to be an in-depth study of an interesting and conflicted person. Instead I was treated to embarrassingly bad dialog and clichéd situations.This must be the worst film Castellitto has ever done and certainly the worst film I have seen in many years.

Individual icon biographies always has this notorious reputation of being loosy and not focused. This one is definitely not.Having a brand as "Ferrari" in your hands might oppress your mind on cars instead of the soul. Carlo Carlei did a great job on what to emphasize, with a great act by Sergio Castellitto.As I can understand, this movie was based on a personal confession which doesn't involve Enzo Ferrari. I believe Piero Ferrari (his son) did his best of being honest while helping the writing credits, maybe too honest. But you can easily get the spirit of the challenge and the suffer for creating a glorious legend.A must see.------Might Contain Spoiler--------------I personally understood that the journalist character was the alter ego of Mr. Ferrari's after i checked the cast list on IMDb. They could have done a better job on that.------Might Contain Spoiler--------------One last thing to say is about the soundtrack of the movie. I wish there were some information about the scores and the composers. Great Job.

This is the story of Ferrari, his personal life and the way he started as a racing driver and then founded the Ferrari company.Yes, this story is about the famous Ferrari sports cars, about the men himself who made Ferrari what it is today.In the movie we see the old Enzo Ferrari tells the story of his life, his women, his children and the people he worked with.This movie is pretty good, just a bit too long at some parts.I'm a bit troubled with the way it ended, they should have done the ending more clear.Watch it if you like the Ferrari cars.
