I’m not an F1 fan, but this film had me hooked from start to finish.
The racing sequences are genuinely exhilarating, packed with tension and shot mostly using practical effects. This results in some truly breathtaking camera work that puts you right in the driver’s seat. Beyond the action, the film delivers an engaging and well-acted drama that keeps the momentum going off the track. The pacing is spot-on, striking a satisfying balance between character-driven scenes and high-octane races, so it never drags.
Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, Damson Idris, and Kerry Condon all give strong performances, adding depth to a story that might otherwise feel overly familiar. Hans Zimmer’s score amplifies the thrill, enhancing both the emotional beats and the on-track intensity.
Yes, the plot is formulaic and leans heavily on well-worn tropes, it’s predictable and doesn’t take many creative risks. But honestly, I didn’t mind. I came in hoping for a fun, fast-paced racing movie, and that’s exactly what I got.
