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

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

TheWrap

A pamphletized biopic that does the easy thing — beautifying Italy and vintage automobiles — but stalls with everything involving humans.

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

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

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.

Pretty bad. Had high hopes. Had to fast forward through parts just to finish it. Boring. Let down. No story building, no details, just basic plot from one to the next accomplishment.

This movie was interesting from a history of supercars perspective. Its sad that the drive and genius it takes to build these brands (Ferrari, Lamborghini) results in the mistreatment of family members who had to pay the price of the brands success.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

I forced myself to watch it through. The sets are beautiful. The writing was pathetic. The direction and editing were on par with a high school production.
