Bummer mate, the Galaxy is the last one we have left although I fear its days are numbered.

Gold Class Thursday Night.

I saw FORD V FERRARI tonight.

Not a lot of romance just a lot of guys dicking around with cars and racing them.

I though it was fantastic, it's not a documentary it's Hollywood. I found it very entertaining.

Do yourself a favour, go see it!

Some will wait for FORD V FERRARI to become available in other formats.

IMHO unless you have a serious home theatre it is worth paying to watch on the big screen. The sight and sound of the race cars is money well spent. I'm sure there is some CGI in there but hey it’s about entertainment.

The mate I went with has just built a fantastic home theatre, but really wanted to see this on the big screen.

Yeah- I have a really good home sound system with sound that will blow movie theatres but for the screen I would need nighttime and my wife is always home at night, and I would only be able to play volume at 28 max with her, with her not there I would have it on 65 (ie ear shattering and wall moving bloody good loud).

Going to Titan Luxe at Reading cinema at Charlestown at 4.30. Any other Ford Forum members in Newie who have an itch to get away from work/missus etc and get a fuel octane blast at 4.30 more than happy to catch up in a group etc. If you interested send me a pm and we can meet up at Charlestown etc.

Cheers for now

Went and watched it last night with the better half, fantastic movie well worth it. The race scenes were brilliant. Will have to wait for it to come out on DVD now to watch it again.

**Polyal** · 15-11-2019, 12:16 PM

So it is American cheesy or they kept the ego down?

No spoilers

I think opinions/reviews are personal preference and can often be influenced by preconceptions.

American Graffiti is among my favourite films. Some would describe it as American cheese.

Saw it today. Gives an insight into corporate suits vs race team.
Some situations can be translated into what happened (and is still happening ? ), in Aussie touring car history from the 1970s.

There are some great vidoes out that show behind the scenes insight into the movie. Some of the more facinating things were how they filmed some driving scenes.
In one a car sat within a "trolley" trailer just barely off it's real wheels and was towed behind another vehicle while stunt drivers drove the other race cars around it.
In another reveal imagine a mock up race car from nose to the b-pillar with the actor in the car, cameraman and equipment sitting behind in a small platform, all as one mobile unit. The whole setup i.e. the mock up and camera unit/camera man can drive around independantly amongst the other race cars. I'd suggest watching some of the movie promo videos as it shows how everyone really loved working on this. The director had a real focus on making as many shots taken showing the drivers perspective rather than say replicating normal sports tv show coverage of a motor racing event which might have some in-car shots but a lot of drive-by and overhead filming.

And then I finished up by watching some of Carrol Shelby's last few interviews retelling his life from kid, to living in Africa and the car developments.

guzzis3 · 16-11-2019, 08:49 AM

Elizabeth and I both thought 10/10. She is a petrol head anyway but I reckon even if you weren't that into cars...

I know a bit of the history but am no expert. I saw nothing in particular that was really wrong. Obviously details were added for drama.

We go to the pictures most thursdays and this is the best movie we have seen in quite a while. We both want to see it again. Maybe if it comes to tivoli drive in...

jpd80 · 16-11-2019, 11:22 AM

Saw it yesterday, good story behind the racing but I think they a little unfair to Leo Beebe
and his part in the 1,2,3 form finish as he always said it was on him, the good and the bad.
There's a real human side to the story and Christian Bale does a great job as Ken Miles so
won't wreck any of the experience for you...

Absolutely love the sound of the GT, you get to hear it really well near the end of the
move and the 7.0 liter sounds awesome even today.

Interceptor · 16-11-2019, 01:10 PM

Watched it thursday night, a few other car guys were there too and the general consensus was that it was pretty damn good :-)

HSVKILLA · 16-11-2019, 05:22 PM

Saw it today 10/10 for me,really good movie for all that want to watch something cool.

Tommie · 16-11-2019, 07:07 PM

Our club and a bunch of others had a screening on Thursday night. Was a great movie, as others have said, need to hear it at a theatre as the noise was loud and real good.. highly recommended.

arronm · 16-11-2019, 09:58 PM

Watched it today. awesome. Been waiting months to get this movie. Worth it. Bale is perfect as Ken Miles.

People should research the Ford GT40 and watch some You-tube clips before watching the movie to really have a full understanding of what happened.

Franco Cozzo · 16-11-2019, 10:48 PM

Just saw it at the cinema - you need to see this on the big screen, the sound is phenomenal.

This movie is the kind that creates car enthusiasts I reckon.

I've only known Christian Bale as Batman, so I come out of it very impressed at his acting skills, his portrayal of Ken Miles is mind-blowing.

arronm · 16-11-2019, 11:10 PM

Christian Bale. American Physco A must what. " I have to return some video tapes "

He's a little underrated simply because he doesn't do enough movies, similar to Daniel Day Lewis. Watch a movie called The Fighter with Mark Wahlberg - one of the best supporting role's I've seen.

Judging by what you blokes have said, especially in regards to the audio, I'll go watch it on the big screen just for that.

Nu66et · 17-11-2019, 12:12 AM

Disappointed theyre still relying on the old "downchange and full throttle to pass" in a racing movie, but otherwise I liked it. Christian Bale was the highlight amongst the acting

Falcon SXR8 · 17-11-2019, 12:31 AM

A little bit hollywood but still enjoyed it, and the wife enjoyed it to. 9/10 for me

roddy1960 · 17-11-2019, 08:17 AM

Really looking (FORD) to seeing it !!!.. Hopefully soon .

Was sad to see that Ken Miles was killed soon after the 1966 Le Mans event.

On Christian Bale and Matt Damon...Two of my favourite actors so I guess I'll like it anyway..

roddy1960 · 17-11-2019, 08:38 AM

Forgot to add this guys ... Found it a couple of days ago and bookmarked it to watch . Just did ... Love the pommy based commentary ..

**FoxtrotGolfXray 5.0** · 17-11-2019, 09:56 AM

Jabba on sunrise just reviewed this movie. Opened by saying he's not a car movie fan.

Rated it 5 stars (out of 5), with the comment "A winner." Also made the comment that the movie will be involved in the Oscars.

Nu66et · 17-11-2019, 10:06 AM

I didn't get that same buzz, but I suppose if you know some of the real story you're always more critical. James Mangold is no mug though, he got the first Oscar nomination for a comic book movie with Logan for adapted screenplay.

FERG_51 · 17-11-2019, 10:17 AM

Great movie, love that 427 sound track.

They had Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt in the lead roles originally we all dodged a bullet there I think.

Christian Bale and Matt Damon did a great job.
