F1 flies onto the big screen with exciting, practically filmed racing sequences shot entirely in-camera. Exactly the kind of visceral spectacle you’d expect from Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski. Starring Brad Pitt and Damson Idris, the film captures the raw speed and adrenaline of Formula 1 in a way that lives up to its summer blockbuster status, even if we found ourselves a bit less invested in its story and characters. As our resident F1 expert, Jayden also breaks down how the movie both succeeds and stumbles in representing the sport (despite it basically playing like a giant ad for it). After the review, we’ll dive into our thoughts Danny Boyle’s much anticipated 28 Years Later and, in our Question of the Week segment, pitch which sport we think Kosinski should tackle for his next big budget film.
