I rarely write reviews but I feel this one deserves one that isn’t one of the overwhelmingly clouded reviews, that mix real world tragedy into the rating of a fictional piece of work.
The movie is entertaining for everyone that knows what to expect and the ridiculousness of the action scenes is fun in itself.
Other than that, this movie is far away from the masterpiece a lot of people make it out to be. Especially the serious parts of the dialogue are a 101 on clichéd movie lines and the story is as surprising as the content of a bag of chips.
Paul Walker was a decent actor and his death is mourned by many but an emotional 5 minute tribute at the end of the movie, that also seems tacked on in terms of the storyline, is swaying many into thinking they witnessed a new Shawshank Redemption or The Godfather movie.
If you are a fan of the series you’re in for a great ride and if you’re into action movies in general you won’t waste your time with this one. Just keep an honest perspective about this movies place in history.
