F1 2025 [alternative names F1 ® THE MOVIE or/and F1 the Movie] by AverageMansReviews

Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/vehicle crashing/burning/medical

We are up against the wall for the remaining races: briefly; we meet Ruben Cervantes [Javier Bardem:] he is the current owner of the APXGP team in Formula One, he is on the verge of losing everything to the board, so he called upon the good old friend that he used to drive with back in the day with Lotus as teammates Sonny "Old Man" Hayes [Brad Pitt:] he is even by his advanced age still a extremely talented driver, but however he is a loose can with an extensive colourful history. But it isn't all bad for this F1 franchise/team; they have one of the best young races in Joshua" Swan" Pearce [Damson Idris:] he is a very highly talented racer, but we have raw talent needs experience and even with reassurances that is seat is safe from Cervantes; Pearce is less than thrilled by these turn of events.

Art and action; well let's point out the obvious; if you have seen Top Gun: Maverick 2022 Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2022/06/top-gun-maverick-2022-by.html : they have essentially taken those styles of camera shots and adapted them for an F1 vehicle including but not limited to seeing things from the driver's perspective; which as the person I watch some of this content with; indicated that it gave this film a full on immersive experience and we both agreed on that you can see where most of this movie's budget went; to ensure that the biggest visual and action perspective of this title was just precisely that; immersive, impactful, slick and impressive and of course we have the training montages which does keep the vibrant nature of this film going.

Character developments, comedy and performances; the character developments are essentially from a safe and reliable model of coming-of-age as it relates to Pearce or kind of as it relates to our older statesman Hayes; but more often than not they are all working together to make their team; APXGP go in a positive direction throughout the rest of the season and the cast reflect that sentiment as well; but having said that I will be slightly disappointed if Pitt, Idris, Bardem or/and Kerry Condon as Kate McKenna, the APXGP Technical Director: is the best at her job and really doesn't mind doing the straight talking thing with Hayes and when she appears; Sarah Niles as Bernadette Pearce: she is the mother of Joshua and when the chips are down she is fiercely protective over her son; that and for one example of the comedy reference; broadly speaking she doesn't think Hayes is too old as he still has IT [whilst he is standing by her son in a poster.] But I digress; my point being here was this; I will be slightly disappointed if individually or altogether they don't at minimum get some more nominations for some more positive awards; because if they didn't generate this chemistry which this film runs off predominately them [without racing or/and training montages] this film would be looking out a different mark.

This film receives: 10/10, this film is top-notch entertainment;, usually more often than not I don't have much to say here, but in this case I have; let's be positive first of all; unfortunately if you are one of those people that are considering watching this film when it comes out on streaming services unless you have a massive and I mean wall filling like 90% of the wall space; then this is one of those films that you really need to see at the cinema. This has nothing to do with the film, but it also fits in with the film experience; whomever decided from their marketing team to put out the first trailer which was very short and essentially didn't give too much; needs to definitely be put on a warning for if they ever do this garbage again, they will find themselves on the unemployment line. Now that might sound a little bit harsh, but at the same time the film industry is a business and if you don't market something correctly it will cost you money and for an excellent example; the person I want some of this content with; first said no to watching this film based off the first trailer and the little fact that this film is 156 minutes long, but I throw my weight around and said I had to go and see it, because it could and is a summer movie. This individual warmed up to the idea after seeing more trailers, but I kept saying I just hope this film is good and on the day of going to see the film I said I have low expectations, I just hope this film is good. That is why it I was firm on whomever came up with this idea for this short trailer should face some kind of repercussion, because it really is detrimental to this film and possibly costed it money [this is based on opinion and not fact as of this content being first created: budget is somewhere between $200-$300 millions and as of this content it is sitting at Just over $165 million; so it still needs to do some business; but even I think which I hope I'm wrong, but it is going to be a tough ask to get $300 million back [yes I have just taken the top figure, but based on my opinion I feel that a real target would be somewhere between $210-$250 million, taking everything into consideration that I covered in this content.] There is an extra sequence of events at the beginning of the ending credits so you don't have to sit around for much longer after that and yes this film has some awards to its name like; 2 Nominees Golden Trailer Awards 2025 Golden Trailer Award Best Action Trailer and Best Summer 2025 Blockbuster Trailer
