★ 8/10
Entertaining sports drama featuring great racing sequences from director Joseph Kosinski, thrilling score by Hans Zimmer and fine performances by Brad Pitt and Javier Bardem. Not a fan of racing in general but this one was pretty solid. 4.0/5

A true blockbuster! Although predictable, and a little long, the movie works from start to finish as Brad Pitt brings major star power.

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://talkingfilms.net/f1-review-a-high-octane-triumph-of-technical-filmmaking/ "F1 is a technical and sensory triumph, a cinematic rollercoaster that throws viewers right into the heart of the action with rare intensity. Despite some narrative stumbles and a familiar structure, Joseph Kosinski's creatively bold and technically dazzling vision, Hans Zimmer's electrifying score, and a fully committed cast turn this blockbuster into one of the most exhilarating, high-energy experiences of the year. Whether you're a diehard fan or just a curious spectator, this movie races straight into the heart of spectacle cinema - with style, tension, and, of course, a whole lot of speed." Rating: A-
