Read the rest for key extracts from some of the first most important criticisms after the first of the first of F1: the film.
The Hollywood ReporterThe criticism of the arts and culture Lovea Gyarkye wrote in its review: “The strongest scenes of F1Who has a two-hour and a half race, are these moments during racing weekends, when Kosinki integrates his fictitious team with real. Sport fans will recognize the cameos of Verstappen, Leclerc, Carlos Sainz, Lando Norris and many other drivers. Hans Zimmer’s surrealized partition increases the bet, adding tensions to already biting nails like a driver making a dangerous tour on a smooth route or mechanics in the pit having a few seconds to change the tires of a car. The impressive job of these scenes extends to Kosinki exploration of different technologies, such as road simulators, used to help drivers get any advantage. Of course, there are unrealistic elements in F1Moments that could have battlers upset an eyebrow, but the film seems no less dramatic than the real thing. “”
ScreenSad Abdedarbaki wrote: “F1 The film is essentially an advertisement of two and a half hours with a surprisingly convincing story. The brands are strewn throughout the film, and the title itself is taken from the Formula 1 race. It is not at all original, and yet I was riveted every minute of the film. Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) from a scenario of Ehren Kruger, F1 The film is engaging and entertaining, taking momentum and laying the basics of character gains. It could easily have prevailed, because so many films related to the brand are used to doing it, but Kosinski’s film makes us feel something. “”
Ross Bonaime, with Colliderwrote in his review: “Despite the excitement and breathtaking racing images that F1 Provides, it is also placed in a story that we have already heard countless times. And although this is in no case overwhelming here – not from a distance – it is a bit silly sometimes in how much it plays in the clichés. Like a good runner, you will probably be able to say where to go each turn and touch, but it is the quality of quality and impressive in which F1 Hit these turns which puts that in the conversation for the best race film ever made. When the excitement and tension of the breeds are as good as they are here, you can ignore a little canned dialogue or a clumsy trope which has been played once too many times. “”
The guardianPeter Bradshaw wrote: “With this face amused in CowPoke of his crushed helmet in his security helmet, making his fire of cherubs, Brad Pitt, Brad Pitt, in this melodrama of Formula OneDa Adventure of Pixar in 2006 Cars), F1 The film gives you the images of racing with the brilliance of the company with Brad as the star in a car at an unreasonable price, the technological fetish of the cars themselves (making you forget how surprisingly they are ugly) with brand names swivel each square thumb of each surface, the simulation graphics write big and the bizarre occult show. “”
Nicholas Barber, with the Bbcwrote: “The biggest problem with F1However, it is not his insistence in showing his leading man in a flattering light, but his equivalent and adorable attitude towards the one formula herself. Shot on real circuits with the complete cooperation of organizers and participants (Lewis Hamilton is credited as a producer), it is essentially a brilliant business film with so much placement of distracting products that you are more likely to remember brand names than characters. There is no criticism or skepticism sheet, and no suspicion of anything from exploitation or ladle. Formula 1 fans can be satisfied with the previews of their favorite pilots, but F1 is so determined to be positive about his environment that none of these men is authorized to be an appropriate antagonist, or even to say anything rude on Sonny. No one can behave badly, and nothing terrible can happen to one of the characters, so there is no tension to speak. The story simply jumps into the world, checking each Grand Prix of a season. In the first of them, the Ruben team fails miserably, but over the weeks … Well, if you have scribbled what you have guessed, the structure could be, you would be absolutely right – except that your version could have higher and the real film. »»
IndiewireThe film critic David Ehrlich wrote in his criticism: “Formula 1 has always testified to the difficulty of finding the right balance between power and precision, and F1 Too much embodies this aspect of sport. Always entertaining for the efficiency of the hyper-modern show in the chassis of a classic history of outsiders (the last part of this equation opens the way to the most coded performance by Billy Bean of Pitt since Money), Kosinski’s film can be propelled and exhilarating by thrusts, but working so hard to satisfy beginners and experts at the same time as he often has trouble grasping his simplest pleasures. The unsuitables become teammates. The losers find redemption. The cars really go, very quickly.
Sophie Butcher, with Empirewrote: “For Formula 1 fans, the precision of F1The representation of sport will be stunned; For agnostics, races may feel repetitive and the level of detail can review certain heads. But whatever your relationship with sport, the extent of what Kosinski and Co have accomplished is undeniable. End your safety belts and see this on the biggest screen you can. »»
USA todayBrian Truitt wrote in his criticism: “The film does not hesitate to hang a lot of trope, but the sequences of action of the white junction are the place F1 lives and breathes. Kosinski wants the public to feel the danger of sitting essentially in a rocket that can go from 200 mph, and the euphoria to pass an enemy in a Ferrari or to have a straight line with a checkered flag. These greatly help to forgive the multitude of sub -intrigues and the toolbox for automotive shots. »»
The Associated Press“The film critic Jake Coyle wrote:”F1 Predictable followed to the finish line, cradle here and there from sports dramas before him. (Tobias Menzies plays a member of the board of directors with uncertain business objectives.) When F1 Finally, calm, for a happy moment, the film, almost literally, hovers. It is not enough to forget all the dramatic macho at high octane before, but just make another road F1 Could have taken.
David Fear, with Rollerwrote in his review: “The way Pitt injects his presence, his physicity, his charm, his well -extended screen character, his particular mixture of discipline and DGAF effortlessly, and his way in the back of the golden age and the golden age feels completely in a way timeless Lancaster, William Holden and, in particular Steve McQueen, not foreign to the films on the race. The great escape.)) F1 I could not feel more contemporary with his goal on a sport that is the current obsession of millions, but could not feel more like a flashback at a revolting age where a film star greater than life was the only necessary intellectual property, that is what superproductions looked like. Come for the most impressive and shiny car that a Gajillion Dollar budget can buy. The reason to stay, however, is the driver. »»
