F1 The Movie has been largely anticipated and hotly debated by movie fans and Formula 1 Fans alike. I had a chance to attend an early screening with WB and Apple Original Films, and as the Brad Pitt film hits theaters this week, this is my honest review.

Things that work: the innovations made to cameras to film cars on track, action sequences that make you feel like you're in the car yourself, the closest mainstream audiences will ever get to being in a Formula 1 car, highlighting racing series like the 24 Hours of Daytona and Baja, F1 cameos, most of the jokes, and the return of the summer blockbuster.

Things that don't: the way women are portrayed in the film, cutting Simone Ashley, and some required suspension of disbelief.

We're breaking down the accuracy of the film, what you can learn about Formula 1 from it, the creative team behind the movie, and whether I think it will create new F1 fans, and if you should see it as a F1 fan.
