Ford v Ferrari | An Intense Race to the Finish

11.14.2019 – There are movies and then there’s a biographical film retelling true to life stories in the form of entertainment at the same time staying true to the facts with a little bit of difference based on what really happened.

It is rare nowadays that there’s a biographical film that hold interest and most of it is about human lives.

Ford v Ferrari is another of those biographical films that is related to Motorsport with more about the man behind the wheel than the car itself. But this film is more about the heritage that put Ford Performance racing division to the world stage retelling the story how an American car manufacturing competed in 24 Hours of Le Mans.

It is also the story how Ford produced the iconic GT-40 that had won several championships competing in Le Mans during those tumultuous days. Behind engineers and drivers at Ford’s disposal they put together what would become one of the high performance cars in history.

With the lead cast portrayed by Matt Damon (Carroll Shelby) and Christian Bale (Ken Miles) this was an impressive film that was both intense at the same time educational to how Ford was dead set in beating Ferrari at their own game as premise to the film.

Deadpool 2 | Delivering the Goods

05.23.2018 – Like the original Deadpool 2 stormed out the gates and made sure this sequel was far better. With all the Meta and fourth wall breaking going on this one takes it to heart that it got a bit serious with the plot. As part of the writing team Ryan Reynolds surely put the right words in Wade’s mouth.

There’s not a bad thing about Deadpool 2 and this time it has a huge budget. The narrative plays it straight about saving a mutant boy and tries to give you another perspective how Wade Wilson would be a better character than everyone has known him in the comic books and you can’t also avoid Cable and Domino.
