'Fast Five' is a Furious Start to the Summer's Entertainment

Vin Diesel on Fast Five [FirstShowing]

Let’s start the engines. Fast Five is the best movie Fast and the Furious series. That is really something if you look at history, the fifth installment of established franchises. I’m not going through a list, do good or bad, but outside the Empire Strikes Back - was actually yes, I know the second Star Wars film, but I can make a point here - and the Order of the Phoenix, film festivals have generally left to the creative impulse to zero at the time of the fifth movie comes. Not so with almost Fast Five, a combination of non-stop chases fast cars, animated characters and action set pieces that official seals cracks open the summer season as a movie. Sure, the plastic seal and maybe a little about CGED, but is in the style and speed not seen before at this level in this franchise.

Fast Five teams back of Vin Diesel and Paul Walker as fast thieves Toretto Dominic and Brian O’Conner, respectively. After the breakup of a cathedral prison transport - an openness to more directly on the end of the Fast and Furious - the team played with Dom’s sister, Mia, by John Brewster, go to Rio, where the score expected life. Pulling a team of different characters from the previous fast and Furious films included, now at U.S. $ 100 million their life savings a businessman from the shadows. Will be dangerous, and the beginning of the confrontation with them before, an agent of the federal task force Luke Hobbs, played by Dwayne Johnson led, is hot on his heels.

Director Justin Lin is clearly not new to this franchise. Fast Five in the third film in the series is that it is addressed, and while very fast provided the Tokyo Drift, running in a different direction, with Fast Five marks each action scene as angry as possible. Fast Five series has some amazing pieces and start from the beginning. This first scene release is simple, fast, but his use of the design action, sound and rational use of effects, both practical and CG sets the tone for the fever that is about to come.


It’s not like the Fast and the Furious movies stolen typical measures bang-bang shoot-em-up. Apart from Tokyo Drift, are not only about street racing. Each of them has a good mix of races and gun game, no matter how individually run each time out. Lin and Chris Morgan, the screenwriter is not in harmony with the road race more interesting. Instead, this new film is loaded down with big explosions, lots of fists meeting faces and even more bullets hit points. A scene that is not a street race is not mocked even go through the pain actually shows it. We know what the outcome. Why spend 10 minutes race meaningless if the voltage can be impossible? And what is more important than all those fighting for the action of Lin and Morgan in Fast Five, all presented in an exciting, fun and memorable.

But all that action would be null and void, without the characters. Fortunately, they understand that. They make every effort to relations between members of the task force Dom and Brian, is completed on the same side of the building for the first time in franchise history. No matter that diesel and Walker have not always found its expressive possibilities. bond character is strong enough to remove any item theatrical talent can be overcome. Making the characters in the form of the past in the movies again the team was a great idea, too. These are the characters we know, but not exactly love them. However, Tyrese Gibson and Ludacris - offer a lot of Fast Five Comic Relief - none of them seen 2 Fast 2 Furious. If effective, safe or not is still a welcome break from the intensity of the film from the barrage of action scenes are related.

Johnson is a nice addition to the series as well. He gives the character a level of sincerity and Hobbs celebrity influence, which is easy to see the film on their side of the action. This is not a throwaway character into the mix and the just distribution, as they contain an idea of ??law enforcement. He brings something else in the whole movie. For a spin-off will probably not work - I will by the law of averages, so it will spin-offs - there are definitely worse ideas with the Hollywood machine could.

Fill Down with enough action for a summer blockbuster loaded hot, Fast Five in the Fast and the Furious movie fans of action have been foaming for years. The cars are there. The races are there. A special car chase towards the end of the film provides incredible originality and striking design the climax of a movie that already provided plenty of action and powerful world-class. It is the culmination of a series that had ups and downs, but feels, finally, the Fast and the Furious series has reached its peak. And while a later sequence the credit to the perfect starting point for supplies FuriouSix can only hope that Justin Lin is back in the driver’s seat.
