“Ford v. Ferrari” (** out of four) was an uninvolving melodrama based on the true story of American car designer Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon) and daredevil driver Ken Miles (Christian Bale) who had to battle corporate interference and numerous technological obstacles to build a revolutionary race car for Ford and challenge Ferrari at the famous 24 Hours Of Le Mans in 1966. Despite good actors and production, film just does not connect emotionally and feels aloof and hollow. Race-car scenes in the final third work best but even then film drags on too long. A disappointment from director James Mangold who scored much bigger with “Logan” and “Walk The Line.”
