Joseph Kosinski's F1: The Movie draws comparisons to Top Gun: Maverick but offers a leaner and meaner approach to the racing genre. Starring Brad Pitt as Sonny Hayes, the film follows his desperate journey from the depths of defeat back to the racing circuit, tackling the high-stakes world of Formula One. The film highlights Hayes' psychological tactics and aggressive style, distinguishing itself from typical narratives, although it inevitably faces the overshadowing legacy of its predecessor in terms of emotional resonance and action.
Ultimately, while F1: The Movie has its merits and presents a compelling underdog story about racing, it cannot escape the comparisons to Top Gun: Maverick.
Kosinski successfully delivers a leaner narrative focused on racing that distinguishes itself with intense action and psychological tactics, avoiding the sappy patriotism of Top Gun.
