You've heard this story before: Person from [insert legitimate or criminal career] returns for one last go at [taking down a sworn enemy/entering the boxing ring/pulling off a heist] even though they're older and hardened and said they'd never do it again. Welcome to the genre, F1 the Movie.

Halfway through a climactic race in “F1 The Movie,” something goes horribly wrong for our heroes. And yet, through a fluke of Formula 1’s complex and inscrutable rules, the underdog Apex Grand Prix team comes out on top. (Don’t worry, this isn’t a spoiler. It’s a recurring theme throughout the two-and-a-half-hour-long film.)
