I go out of my way frequently to pass each Prius loudly and with excessive enthusiasm. They are the antithesis of everything I enjoy about cars and, 'Merica.

The first movie was just Point Break with car racing instead of surfing. Pretty much an exact rip off.

Early reviews aren't so hot on this. I enjoyed this one:

God I had to sit and listen to this dumb woman ramble on for an hour back in cultural diversity class. Surprise surprise her father was some closeted gay/pedophile.

Dumb movie, but fun, as you'd expect. If I paused the movie every time something dumb happened it would take 12 hours to finish, but you don't go into a movie like this and expect anything else. It does kind of amuse me that even though Diesel is still the "main" character, most people don't seem to care about him much anymore. I went for The Rock and Statham mostly.
It was fun to see in IMAX, and it undoubtedly made the movie more fun to have the whole sound and visual experience, but if you're one of those people that ration the movies you see in theaters, probably best to wait for video on this one.

Both 1 and 2 were complete hunks of shit. 3 was "mostly" shit as well, but they changed the narrative from a stupid movie to at least a stupid movie trying to do some cool shit. It wasn't until 4 that they really took off on the new plot of being a group of criminal crime fighters.
At the very least, these movies are good mindless entertainment.

Saw it tonight with the wife. Typical Fast & Furious flick. Total disconnect from reality popcorn flick. It was fun, but I'd say this was one of the weakest ones since the reboots from 4 on. It was decent but some parts drug on and it just didn't work with Vin as the bad guy. There were some redeeming parts like Jason Stratham scenes, but stuff like the NY and Russian tundra part just drug on. It also felt like it was missing a few things this go around. I think part of what they missed was the exotic tropical locations aspect they usually have. And the character screen time balance sucked in this movie. Certain characters that were staples before, only got a few minutes in 8. They need to get back to the whole "Ocean's 11" thing where everyone has a specialty and gets a part of the job/screen time, doing their thing. And lastly there weren't any real cool "human" stunts in this one, only more car stunts. Paul Walker used to be good for those, hanging off shit with one arm at the brink of death. Hoping they ramp up Scott Eastwood into that role in the next two. Anyways, the first 15 minutes of the movie was probably the best part. They really need to do shit like that more in the next 2 supposedly greenlighted movies.

I feel F&F died for me at 7 and not just because of the death. The whole bank vault then tank then plane and submarine and so forth is just getting nuts. What is next for F&F9 a moon base? Still I hope they do well. This series will completely self fund the final Riddick movie so it is worth it.
Vin banked 47 million + producer fee for F&F7 which is one of the biggest paydays in Hollywood. Good money.
