Any feedback to share? I have heard it has done well to start, good signs! It may be fantastic for IWC, it seems the brand is quite visible. I am going to try to catch it at an IMAX theater, that looks like the way to go.
Who on the forum has seen F1 The Movie?

MasterBen, great topic here!
I was fortunate enough to attend the Switzerland Premiere with my son last Thursday in Zürich at the official IWC event.
Expectations were extremely high and were even exceeded.
I can't remember 2.5 hours passing by so fast.
Maybe the best racing scenes that I had ever seen!
But it's not only for F1 freaks but for a Hollywood movie at it's best: Entertaining, so well played by so many great characters. Of course so many great watches to see in it. Most interesting, that many scenes were actually filmed during the F1 race weekends in the middle of the real race event. The APX GP F1 team has their garage in the middle of Mercedes and Ferrari garages and the real F1 drivers are part of the movie without acting. They were just put in scene in the middle of their regular race routine which makes this movie a one of a kind unique experience.
And well, there's so much more to say:
Alone the music composed by oscar winning movie music composer Hans Zimmer with so many great songs e. g. by Ed Sheeran just to mention the most popular.
It was such a cool event and movie. I will watch it a few times more. That's for sure.

I saw it twice already. Fun movie, it is entertainment for sure, loved it for what it is, and amazing action movie. Loved all the iwc watches on screen, even the cameo of a certain CEO was fun to see.

The film is simply fantastic. I saw it with H. Pantli and R. Jäger at the IWC event in Zurich on June 29. I'll definitely watch the film again. IWC was very discreetly but clearly represented in the film.
I bought the limited-edition Ingenieur; it's a really beautiful watch.
Best regards.

InsiderI also was in the Movie.
Based on Story, it is OK. The typical scenes are checked BUT CAMERA MOVEMENT and Emotions whise a milestone. Really enjoyed the movie and I totally didnt felt the 2+hours time spend.
Also we had the pleasure to get an intro from Chris in person.
