‘F1’ movie review: Dazzling visuals, score dampened by distracting plots

There are few things I would rather do than watch 20 multi-millionaires hurtle around oddly-shaped tracks in glamorous locales, battling it out in a marvel of instinct, engineering and strategy.It’s a passion that I have sacrificed my sleep schedule, money and, quite frankly, my sanity for, so when it was announced that Lewis Hamilton (arguably the greatest driver of all time and certainly the most decorated) was producing a Formula One (F1) movie, it was inevitable that I would watch it.Directed by Joseph Kosinski (of “Top Gun: Maverick” fame), starring Brad Pitt (“Fight Club” and “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”) and running just over two and a half hours, “F1” was a whirlwind, both good and bad.
