"F1" (2025) Film Review

 


Final Score: 8.8/10

This film has extraordinary reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, my favorite film critic on YouTube, Jeremy Jahns gave it an "AWESOMETACULAR" and it has other praises from various film critic channels. 

I am not particularly a big sports (if you consider racecar driving to be a sport) fan; I definitely do NOT watch or keep up with it on TV or anything. So I was wondering if I was going to enjoy this based on those predicaments.  

As a film critic, I would say this film was entertaining, but it did not fully live up to the hype/expectations I had for it (in that I thought I was going to give a ~9.5/10). 

One big strength was the cinematography. There was one rainy scene in which I thought it was done beautifully. As well as other shots. 

And I would say this film's biggest strength was the music. Hans Zimmer, in my opinion, is the best film composer working today. And he continues his amazing streak even with this film. I am definitely planning on searching YouTube music for the soundtrack later. 

The story/characters were all right as well the comic relief. The acting was good, not Brad Pitt's best performance, and I would say the actors overall did a B+ job. 

The biggest FLAW was the appalling runtime. This 2hr 35 min film could've easily been cut down to 2 hours and I think 1hr 50-55 min would've been ideal. 

Overall, it was entertaining and worth a shot - 8.8/10.

.  Final Score: 9.8/10 This film was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING . With an original and incredibly brilliant screenplay/story, I was thoroughly entertained all throughout the film.  The biggest strengths of this film are the story and the music. In that the story is unique and well thought out and not based on any other medium.  The MUSIC was so phenomenal that after it watching for the SECOND time, I came home and spent a good deal of minutes going through each song on YouTube Music so I can add it to my library. I could go on for quite some time as to how the music (songs and score) were so well tied in with the story and were a key integral part of it.  The acting was good and the characters were also a big strength of this film. They were fun and entertaining and kept me very much engaged.  Like I said, I saw this film TWICE and I kind of want to watch it for a THIRD time in a few weeks if it is still in theaters. Any flaws? Well nothing in the plot that you won't fi...
