Our take on F1

Joseph Kosinski's 2025 sports drama follows racing legend Sonny Hayes, lured out of retirement to lead a struggling Formula 1 team while mentoring a brash young driver, all in pursuit of one last shot at glory. Kosinski, known for kinetic, immersive spectacle, frames the sport as a test of nerve, ego and reinvention, pairing high-speed thrills with a familiar comeback arc. Audiences drawn to adrenaline, motorsport and the mentor-protégé dynamic will find plenty to savor, especially on the biggest screen possible. Those hoping for understated character study may find the beats predictable. Best for viewers wanting a slick, propulsive crowd-pleaser powered by speed and second chances.
