The cars are the stars in Lamborghini: The Man Behind the Legend, a pamphletized biopic that does the easy thing — beautifying Italy and vintage automobiles — but stalls with everything involving humans.

This is anonymous filmmaking of the highest order—it could be about anyone. There’s no insight into Ferruccio Lamborghini or what made his pursuits special. It could also be directed by anyone—Moresco’s indistinct filmmaking is neither enthralling nor involving.

Masterpiece. Surprisingly well acted by Frank Grillo and surprisingly good cinematography for this little jewel, the sort of film you didn't expect. It's only problem is being too short.

With the exception of Mira Sorvino, who has joined Halle Berry on the list of Tired, Worn, & Used up, the cast is generally quite well-rounded. She doesn't appear onscreen long enough to have any significant negative effects; the movie itself takes care of it. Grillo is successful in giving the part of the Signore the essential fire, drive, and vision, but the writing drags and is uneven and devoid of crucial components. The painfully strained connection between Ferrucio and his son led to the eventual sale of the business, but we're left to question why.

If Grillo can’t make the guy interesting to watch, and writer-director Bobby Moresco (he shared the screenwriting Oscar for “Crash”) can’t fudge Ferruccio’s life story into something more involving than this, I dare say that some suit at Lionsgate sat in a screening room at some point and wondered aloud, “Well, what was the point of THAT?”

Okay, I guess. I dunno. I was drinking when I watched it so I nodded off a couple times!

The movie is so boring, I wanted to quit watching it after literally 15 minutes. Acting is not good enough, terrible accent, mediocre visual effects. Make yourself a favor an choose something else to watch. Ford vs Ferrari cannot even be compared with.

I thought the biopic I just saw about Whitney Houston had been rather simplistic, but this film is probably one of the most crude, superficial, messy and shameless examples of the genre. Grillo was fine and it's clear the dude can do better, but I guess the opportunities offered to him are only within this range.

Easily the one of the worst biographies in recent memory. It could have been so good. The story is thin at best, which is quite disappointing for a true story. By the end of the film you don't know who "the man behind the legend is" or what motivated him.
