Adam Driver's new film Ferrari has been slammed by fans after it hit cinemas on Boxing Day.
Despite receiving a seven-minute, 30-second standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival in September, the actor's film was not well received by critics.
Adam, 39, takes on the titular racing car icon in Michael Mann's biopic of Enzo Ferrari, the carmaker's Italian founder.
But fans have had their say on what they think of his new film, with some cheering: “I caught myself snoring.”
X, formerly known as Twitter, allowed viewers to share their thoughts on what they thought of the highly anticipated biopic.
Adam Driver's new film Ferrari has been slammed by fans after it hit cinemas on Boxing Day – with some claiming the film put them to sleep
Despite receiving a seven-minute, 30-second standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival in September, the 39-year-old actor was not a hit with critics (Adam depicted as Enzo Ferrari in the film)
One wrote: 'I was expecting something similar to Ford vs Ferrari. Ferrari's personal life was discussed more than the actual racing cars or their development. Mostly shots of driving technique, landscape and narrow winding roads.
'Patrick Dempsey's role was small and really added nothing to the plot. I even caught myself snoring once.”
Another wrote: 'It doesn't make sense that movies about Napoleon, Leonard Bernstein and Enzo Ferrari came out this year and instead of focusing on all the cool stuff they made it about marriage.'
Adam stars in Ferrari, which explores three months in the life of Enzo Ferrari, the car company's founder. He has money problems, mourns his deceased son and has a child with his mistress – which is discovered by his wife.
After a nearly empty red carpet premiere due to the SAG-AFTRA strikes, Adam and Michael sat down to watch the film as audiences went wild for the fall biopic.
An emotional Adam choked back tears during the rapturous applause and was brought to his feet by Michael.
Earlier in the day, the Hollywood star showed his support for notable actors as he called out streaming services Netflix and Amazon for not being “willing to support people in the industry.”
Adam was quick to praise the independent studio for their role in negotiations with SAG-AFTRA when he approached the larger production companies.

After a nearly empty red carpet premiere due to the SAG-AFTRA strikes, Adam and director Michael sat down to watch the film.
Speaking at the festival, he began: “I'm very happy to be here to support this film, and the condensed schedule we had to shoot it and the efforts of all the great actors who worked on it and the crew. '
Adam continued, “But I'm also very proud to be here to be a visual representation of a film that is not part of the AMPTP and to promote the SAG leadership directive, which is an effective tactic, which is the interim -agreement.
“The other purpose, of course, is to say, how is it that a smaller distribution company like Neon and STX International can meet the dream demands of what SAG is asking for – these are pre-negotiations – the dream version of SAG's wish list, but a big companies like Netflix and Amazon can't do that?
“And every time SAG people start supporting a movie that meets the terms of the interim agreement, it just becomes clearer that these people are willing to support the people they work with and not the others.
“If you understand the interim agreement, for all these reasons it's a no-brainer why you would want to support your union, and that's why I'm here: to stand in solidarity with them by showing up and further proving the point that it really is about the people you make it with.'
