Bad Writing with Great Production Work
As an F1 fan, I watched this movie when it first came out and I had no expectation whatsoever. When the movie finished, I had one thing in my mind. The movie doesn't make any sense. This movie feels like a 13-year-old boy imagination when he was bored in class. F1 is a sport and it has tons of rules in it. But this movie bend every single rules and regulations in the sport. It was very hard to watch. It was as if FIA (a motorsport association) doesn't exist anymore! The funny thing is the FIA do exist in this movie and they're so dumb that makes me wonder, who writes this movie? Don't they have consultants or experts during the development? They do. They have an F1 driver as one of the producers of this movie. A driver! Yet, the writing still turns out to be a mess! At one point, even someone that don't watch F1 is going to think, how do they allow this in a sport? In terms of writing, this movie is disappointing. This movie is not a great representation of the sport.
Contradict to the writing, the production in this movie are amazing. I do have to admit that. The tension that you will feel in this movie are just chef's kiss. The music, the camera work, the whole post-production was done beautifully. It was great.
It's the kind of movie where when you're in the cinema has you on the edge on your seat and so hyped, but the moment you step out, you stop and think to yourself, what the hell was that? Because this is the exact thing that happened to me. I was actually so hyped during the movie and when I stepped out, I started thinking about the plot, the crazy, and stupid things that the main character does. My mood suddenly when sour, because there is no way that the things that they had just done was allowed in the sport. It's a shame that they got these great production work to a letdown.
Overall, if you like movies with adrenaline rush and no thoughts whatsoever along the movie, you will love this movie. If you like a movie with critical thinking, yikes, this movie will let you down.
Five stars for the production and 0 stars for the writing.
