Johnny Tran was right

[eglove]

Interesting story arc. Will still go see it regardless

[Xtrema]

Sounds like they are setting up a trilogy with cliff hangers.

After all we are getting 9 and 10 in 2019 and 2021.

Another hobbs vs toretto?:zzz:
Am I the only one that's not a huge fan of Dwayne Johnson in FF?

Seems like an odd story twist.
Excited to watch regardless :nut:

[mr2mike]

The Rock's one of the few with funny one liners.

I just wish they could get back to the street racing scene? Maybe another spin off for the fanboys with Mia & Brian O'Conner's kid? Then keep this saga going too?

Interesting, I watched the trailer and thought there is a twist at the end as in why he is doing this for everyone and not being selfish

[Dumbass17]

I love the visuals of these ever since the 5th. Can't wait... Minus the "tough" girl, Rodriguez or whatever her name is

[shakalaka]

Looks great...will watch.

[3drian]

Pretty good and funny breakdown, plus Jessica is pretty hot:

Cant wait for the fart of the furious featuring the original fart can civics.

[TomcoPDR]

Excited, opening Friday April 14th.

Anyone interest in watching a FF marathon? Start watching The Fast and The Furious this Friday, a movie a day for the week leading up.

[pheoxs]

Amex advance screening at Chinook on Wednesday, anyone else going?

I heard they're charging $35 for two tix, with popcorn and drinks tho. (the AMEX baller told me it's usually free)

I'm gonna watch it on opening day, anyone in?

[drtoohotty1]

I've got my landmark tickets for Thursday:D

[beecue]

Pretty good. :thumbsup:

I wasn't too hyped for the movie based on the trailer but they always deliver with these movies.

[infected]

I wasn't a fan. Typical story line and way over exaggerated. I remember wanting to get out half way into it because it was just getting ridiculous. Lost interest really fast.

hate to say it but i felt the same, i was yawning during most of the movie and wondering when was this going to end? my wife liked it though :dunno:
1-3 and 5 are still my favourite

[drtoohotty1]

I thought it was a pretty good action movie the only thing that bothered me is they made Hobbs a contender for a battle with the incredible hulk, I get it he's a big guy but come on.

[ExtraSlow]

Much fast, very furious, wow.

[frozenrice]

I think someone needs to do a movie mashup of F&F, Expendables and Transformers. There were a few times during F8 when I almost forgot which one I was watching LOL.

[Masked Bandit]

I enjoyed it quite a bit. It's not going to be nominated for an Oscar but it's not supposed to be.

Sometimes a burger & fries are exactly what you're after, not fine cuisine.

[Shlade]

Watched it last night... really should of ended with furious 7. I thought this one was a little over the top but had it's good funny moments as usual and definitely lots of action!

He's getting the Schwarzenegger treatment. If you've ever seen Commando, that undertone for that movie was 'look how much of a monster Arnold is' and it's very much the same in this movie.

[Melinda]

I thought it was great. By far the least believable, but the cheese made it excellent ☺ Lots of twists in this one though, and they did a good job tying in a lot of stuff from the previous 7 films. Sad for Jordana Brewster, Paul's death and following story arc meant they cut her out of this one. 🚘

[NoPulp]

It was horrible. I thought 7 was bad, this was terrible.
The opening scene made me mad, then when they hacked all those cars I wanted to get up and leave...

I still like the characters so I will continue to go to them... Tyrrell and Ludacris are by far my favorite now.

All is forgiven. The Shaw brothers are now family

[Type_S1]

I though it was very entertaining...it's clear these movies lost the reality side of things after the 3rd movie and moved to be more main stream action movies which is understandable as you are targeting a niche group if it's more car focused. If you are going expecting a realistic car movie you are setting yourself up for disappointment...go in their expected far-fetched action and sweet cars and you will leave smiling.

That's the one thing I didn't like. He killed family and all is forgotten. Maybe the series is racist and Asian lives don't matter? :rofl:

[bjstare]

LOL @ the critics in here that are disappointed the movie was so over the top. I mean, get real, have you not seen any F&F movie in the last decade?

Like MaskedBandit said, this is intended to be the burger and fries. I think it lived up to that just fine. :dunno:

I concur. It has that happy go lucky fuck yeah feel, and it's not completely 'merica fuck-yeah neither.

I don't think there's more more/less you can do with this franchise to improve. It always was doing silly wtf things "ahead of its era" (Civics zipping under tractor trailers, stealing DVD players :rofl: )

[beecue]

Apparently Han might be back. :dunno:

[shakalaka]

Enjoyed it as a stupid entertainer I guess, definitely not any sense of realism to it. I guess I watched it, I don't regret it but don't feel like I watched a movie marvel either.:dunno:

[95EG6P]

Just watched it and it was my least favorite of the series. Wish they brought back han too bad they killed Vince and Giselle. Tyrees and Luda and the Ramsey just doesn't feel right

After watching the behind the scenes on the new XXX Return of Xander Cage movie, seems like Donnie Yen and Vin Diesel are basically bros now.

So I'm gonna say, in FF9, Donnie Yen is gonne be cast as Han's brother, and him and Jason Statham are going to fight to the death.

[sexualbanana]

Allegedly, there was a post-credits scene (I didn't stick around to see if we got it) that was supposed to set up a Rock-Statham spin-off. But the scene was cut because it was made without Vin's knowledge and he and Rock had been feuding during filming. When Vin found out, he was furious (fastly).

Exactly!

I went in this weekend, not expecting any more than action, and a few corny lines.......that's what we got, it was fun. Not going to win any awards, but hey, the F&F things makes $$ every time.

I don't know. I came out of this feeling a little underwhelmed by the movie. I don't know if I'm just jaded by the ridiculousness of the action pieces or my expectations for ridiculousness were too high.

I get that, but still thought it under-delivered. Maybe I wasn't in the mood for it, but I thought it was an expired microwave burger from a gas station at best.

I understand it's not a series that aims for accuracy or plausibility, but I still thought they were a little too blatant at presuming their audience didn't understand cars, basic physics, technology, or the way anything worked.

[Redlyne_mr2]

Horrible movie.

[Swank]

I enjoyed it, surprised the woman liked it too, that was the first one she's seen so now we're watching them all. I don't think I saw 6 or 7.

[flipstah]

Lolol Tyrese bone dry

[RickDaTuner]

I watched it and thought it was fun, the booty shots in the beginning were worth it for me, Imax ass in yo face... what more could you ask for!

I agree that Charlize Theron is still super sexy!


Enjoyment aside, I still had my gripes; The jokes were old and tired and the cast had no character development, but it was still fun to watch as everyone else said.
Whatched the first one on tv a few days ago, and what really struck me about it was the believability of Pauls character, along with with everyone else, with the exceptions of the cheesy cops.
These new movies all miss that, even with the old characters, they've gone from 3 dimensional characters to flat one liner drones.
The whole bit with Tyresses' character being the idiot of the group got real old, real quick.
All in all the original was artistic, factually wrong, but still felt like what a movie should be feel like.
Everything they make now, feels like just a play on your senses, little content and lots of action.

Sadly I'll keep paying to watch them. :possie:

[J-hop]

Just saw it tonight. It was ok. Guys burning out of the country hills parking lot after in shitty cars that were only able to break traction because it was raining made it worth it :rofl:

[max_boost]

First one was the best one obviously. Now it's just Michael bay style production lol

[Hallowed_point]

Still think Fast 5 was the best. This one was much better than 6 imo. Really enjoyed it. :hitit:

Anyone else pick up on Roman's lambo being a tribute of sorts to the buster's orange Supra?

[rage2]

Originally posted by Hallowed_point

Doubt that was the reason. If they really wanted to pay tribute to the orange Supra, they would've used something like this, a more direct lineage to the Supra:

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/89/2b/5d/892b5df56eae211ca233a3da474aae33.jpg

But it's not really a tuner car movie anymore like the old days so it's never going to happen.

[colinxx235]

I feel like a tribute would more likely have been a GT-R. Or maybe if one was there and a comment was made/no one wanted to drive it

When did the crew become international super spies? WTF?!

:D I also noticed that. Cool tribute. Also great idea to have an Orange GTR that no one wanted to drive. Maybe I reached too far in thinking that the lambo was a tribute. Seemed pretty close to the Supra paint code, but Exoctic cars are typically loud colours.

I definitely caught that, I was more arguing which car would be a tribute to him. If I was to associate his character with 1 vehicle it would be a blue GT-R (r-34 or 35 doesn't matter) versus a orange supra or similar

Just thought it was a cool throwback to the original movie.

that's one of the reasons why I didn't like where they went after the 5th movie, every cars and security cameras in NYC was hackable,
Tej as a hacker when in FF2 he was just a mechanic and street racer, in FF5 he was good with locks and safe. how many past life did he have?
Scott Eastwood was boring and not a worthy replacement for Paul Walker, I prefer Kurt Russell.
Roman was still pretty funny but couldnt save the movie for me

he was driving the WRX from 5-7 too but I cant recall 4.

Not just super spies, the guys are all super heroes. It started slowly in 5 and slowly ramped up until the Rock became the hulk with every punch in 8 haha.

[Justing]

FnF is basically the Avengers but instead of super powers they have super cars.

FnF 8 was ridiculously over the top. Submarines, torpedoes, super hax0rs, 5000hp with unlimited tire grip, etc etc.
None of it made any sense. Bad movie on it's own merits, but I loved every second of it because of FnF nostalgia.

Can't wait for 9, 10 and the spinoffs. :rofl:

You mean the eclipse?

I know he's driven a few cars, off the top of my head
2 - he started with the GT-R until cops trashed it
4 - he had the R35 to race Dom for the spot under Barraga(sp?), then swapped over to the STI after Dom blew it up.
5 - he had a 1970-72? I believe... skyline at the start when he first arrives in Brazil
6 - I can't recall a skyline actually being in this film edit: pretty sure he had it at the start of the film, he races dom over to mia in the opening credits
7 - he had a skyline before the predator took it out

ah yes, Eclipse, don't know why I was thinking of the Celica earlier :blush:
he is a skyline fan, I just remember that his 'work' car is the WRX

I actually fell asleep during the 7th F&F in the theater. God was that ever a bad movie. Tokyo Drift at least had bow wow.

It's best if you just ignore how some characters suddenly became experts. Like in 5 when Mia suddenly knew computer surveillance and could speak fluent Portugese.

That part didn't even make sense to me. Brian is "alive" in the storyline. Odd tribute. Would have been better as Paul, I think.

Too meta? Like the correct response from Dom's family would "K. Cool."
