Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News The period details are above par and Grillo is up for the challenge, but “Lamborghini” comes out as perfunctory and unenlightening as a school report from a bored teen. Rated: 1/5 Dec 8, 2022 Full Review Murtada Elfadl AV Club Fortunately, the film is only 97 minutes long. But even this grace note comes at a cost to the viewer. The end of the story comes out of nowhere, as if the filmmakers ran out of money and stopped shooting before they were really done. Rated: D Nov 26, 2022 Full Review Robert Abele TheWrap A pamphletized biopic that does the easy thing — beautifying Italy and vintage automobiles — but stalls with everything involving humans. Nov 16, 2022 Full Review Tom Cassidy Common Sense Media Functional at best, Lamborghini: The Man Behind the Legend merely ticks off plot points rather than crafts them with the film falling flat in the process. Rated: 1/5 Feb 15, 2023 Full Review Abhishek Srivastava The Times of India It is inevitable that viewers will compare this film with James Mangold’s Ford vs. Ferrari, and the truth must be told: 'Lamborghini' is no match for this one. Rated: 2.5/5 Jan 14, 2023 Full Review Erik Childress Movie Madness Podcast There are more scenes about the man behind the legend trying to keep his marriage intact than ones about him trying to piece the actual car together. Rated: 1/4 Dec 12, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Anthony S Not a good script. Missed the excitement of the story. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/20/22 Full Review Mike M 6.3/10 As a huge fan of Lamborghini and their sport cars, this biopic truly disappointed me. The story is entertaining and interesting, but the acting is poor and the accents are noticeably fake. It skips parts of his life, and doesn’t go into how he revolutionized the automobile industry. The film is more about Ferruccio Lamborghini’s relationships than it is about the cars he made. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/21/24 Full Review Carlos T Filme: Lamborghini: O Homem por Detrás da Lenda @lamborghini #lamborghini Assistido: 18-10-24 Elenco: @frankgrillo1 @mirasorvino Gabriel Byrne, @antoniobanderas @elianajones @francescatizzano @hannahvdw @chiara_primavesi Modelo: #biografia #esporte #drama Duração: 1h 37m Ano: 2022 Minha opinião: O filme é dividido em 2 partes. O ínicio do sonho, até a conclusão da fábrica de tratores e a segunda parte que é o ínicio dos carros esportivo. Os atores Romano, Matteo e Eliana fizeram uma interpretação impecável, que faz nos prender na trama. Tudo começa com o fim da Guerra. E o jovem Ferruccio e Matteo vem com sonho de uma empresa de tratores, Ferruccio se casa com Billie, mas quando ela vai ter o filho acaba morrendo na hora do parto. Todo este drama é muito bem representado pelos atores. E na parte final deste 1ª fase, termina Ferruccio traindo seu amigo e sócio Matteo por Anitta. E ele alegando que não teria como criar o filho recém nascido e por isso ficou com ela. Matteo o deixa e assim termina a 1ª parte. A 2ª fase começa com o sucesso da empresa de tratores. E com o sucesso Ferruccio tinha vários Ferraria e um dia vai falar com Enzo Ferrari que ele propõem uma junção da Lambo com a Ferrari. E Enzo tira sarro de Lambo como um empresário de tratorzinho. Assim acende a fúria de Ferruccio que agora quer produzir um super carro. Assim temos Frank Grillo no seu melhor papel, um homem que trocou a família por sua ambição. Uma esposa que aguentou até onde deu. Já com todo o seu império e só. Roteiro e enredo bem elaborados e produzidos. Um filme que comecei a assistir sem perspectiva e surpreendeu com o resultado. Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 8,5 Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/22/24 Full Review Dr. Srinivas P A thoroughly disappointing movie with a worthless script, poor acting and miserable direction. This film is a disgrace to the legendary carmaker. Only takeaway was getting to know about Miura, perhaps the most beautiful car ever made. Avoid watching. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/14/24 Full Review Max S This was a bad movie but was ok to watch it, the acting was mediocre and the script was lame, some of the acting was very ameteur, specially when they put water in his cheek when he is crying after losing Clelia. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/18/24 Full Review Anon A One to avoid, deeply disappointing on so many levels. What could have been a very interesting story is presented with very disjointed and butchered editing, poor acting and terrible fake Italian accents, missing pivotal moments in the history of Lamborghini and before you know it the credits are rolling. Did the Lamborghini family get behind this movie? I would be amazed if that was the case. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews
