F1: The Movie, the cinematic love letter to Formula One and \u2014 quite possibly even more so \u2014 consumer products made by Apple, is finally available to stream<\/a> on Apple TV if you\u2019re a subscriber. It follows the sports thriller\u2019s long theatrical run, during which it raked in more than $630 million globally, comfortably making it Apple\u2019s most successful original film.<\/p>\n

Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick, Tron: Legacy), F1: The Movie follows the washed-up former F1 prodigy Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), who is convinced by an old friend (Javier Bardem) to get back in the driver’s seat and help rescue his failing team. Seven-time F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton served as a producer on the film to ensure it represented the sport as authentically as possible.<\/p>\n

Engadget\u2019s Devindra Hardawar reviewed<\/a>F1: The Movie when it arrived in theatres in the summer, calling it a “shameless Apple ad that will blow your socks off.” Should you manage to keep your eyes from rolling straight out of their sockets when a pair of AirPods Max appear on screen before\u00a0anyone says a word, then a deliriously entertaining blockbuster awaits.<\/p>\n

For all of the film\u2019s formulaic storytelling and generic characters, the Really Fast Car bits are so well done that they put F1: The Movie among the very best racing movies, as far as our reviewer is concerned. In truth, it\u2019s the kind of film that deserves to be seen on the biggest screen you can find, but failing that, the TV in your living room should do the job just fine, too.<\/p>\n

Apple recently dropped<\/a> the “+” from its streaming service\u2019s name, so it\u2019s now just called Apple TV (yes, the same name as one of its products<\/a>). If you\u2019re a new subscriber you can take advantage of a seven-day free trial, after which it costs $13 per month following a recent price<\/a> hike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"F1: The Movie, the cinematic love letter to Formula One and \u2014 quite possibly even more so \u2014…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":343387,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[1337,23083,64,63,10051,140034,817,56900,127542,105],"class_list":{"0":"post-343386","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-apple","9":"tag-apple-tv","10":"tag-au","11":"tag-australia","12":"tag-brad-pitt","13":"tag-consumer-products","14":"tag-f1","15":"tag-javier-bardem","16":"tag-joseph-kosinski","17":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343386","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=343386"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/343386\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/343387"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=343386"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=343386"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=343386"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
