FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/ferrari-venice-film-festival-review-penelope-cruz-drives-an-uneven-biopic/
"Ferrari has the potential to be a memorable biopic but lacks a more thoughtful emotional focus in its performance-driven character study. Adam Driver is excellent, but Penélope Cruz clearly stands out with an emotionally devastating performance.
The dialogues between the main couple are the highlights of a globally abrupt film that deals with the deaths of people outside the family nucleus in a manner that is too fleeting and insignificant, in addition to overdramatizing a particular subplot.
Competent racing sequences. It fulfills the basic purpose of telling the story of a complex man whose life is much sadder than one can imagine."
Rating: B-
