trackback
If you liked the previous flicks in the series – atleast the first one – then you should like this too. If you never liked any of them then there is no reason why you’d want to watch this. I’m a sucker for any above average car chase flick so I had no trouble appreciating this one too.
I’ve only seen the first installment in the series before and compared to that this one seemed a little better. Especially the chase sequences sequences feature a little less obvious CGI which help a long way in making the action appear a lot more thrilling. The crappy gangsta rap music which keeps playing in the background also seemed a bit restrained. It’s good to see Vin Diesel and Paul Walker together again.
For fans of this franchise there is more good news as a sequel or two are in the offing – as is obviously evident from the final scene. If you are planning to watch this do make sure that you don’t miss the much talked about gasoline truck heist opening sequence.
Did you know that Fast & Furious still has a high share of all conversations about movies, but its share of negative and positive conversations is medium? Comparatively, Fast & Furious has a disproportionate amount of neutral conversations.
