In short all the things that make up a good fun action movie. Otherwise the movie is a nice blend between macho talk, action, lots of fast driving, some humor, some more action, some more fast driving and lots of chars getting smashed. Do they really think the viewers are so stupid that they will just buy this? Or is it that they themselves are so utterly stupid that they do not realize how utterly wrong the entire thing is? For me this really dragged down an otherwise great movie.
This is what I call Hollywood arrogance towards the viewers. They were driving at take-off speed, both on the ground and in the air, for how long? 20 minutes? That must have been the worlds longest runway.
Although the effects and fights themselves were quite cool the entire flight escape scene was just ludicrous. This is rather expected and I can live with it as long as it doesn’t go to far into the realm of ludicrously unrealistic which it, sadly, did towards the end. Not all of it is entirely realistic of course.
There are lots of fast driving and lots of action and special effects.
This is of course a movie about fast driving, action and special effects. The rest is not bad but more like filling out some empty space compared to Vin and Dwayne. Michel Rodriquez is doing a decent enough job as well but then I do like Michel Rodriquez so… These guys are making a lot of the movie for me. Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson are perfect in their roles as old-fashioned, hard-hitting, fast-driving macho guys. It could have been a great movie but it is unfortunately dragged down by some of the not too unusual Hollywood stupidity and arrogance towards the viewers. It is pretty much what you would expect from a Fast & Furious movie. Reviewed by Dark Jedi 7 / 10 Reviewed on April 05, 2014, Sat at 06:07 AM
