'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.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Also Looks o Take on Drama in 'Cry Macho'

Arnold Schwarzenegger

His return to action already includes an animated superhero as The Governator announced a next movie role in Kim Jee-Woon’s, and a return to his most iconic role as the Terminator for nearly five director Justin Lin. Well, how about we have another project in the fast-growing slate of Arnold Schwarzenegger, but this time it is to throw a drama. Vulture reports of the action icon will have a role in a play called Cry Macho by director Brad Furman (The Lincoln Lawyer) and Al Ruddy, producer take on such acclaimed dramas like “Million Dollar Baby and The Godfather. In fact, there sounds like Cry Macho could return to his first real action.

The plan is to have at the moment for the shooting this summer, but funds are not raised at the film festival in Cannes next month. So what’s the story? Apparently it’s on N. Richard Nash based novel of the same name (he apparently wrote the screenplay before he died in 2000) and would play a damaged-goods Schwarzengger horse trainer who has just been on the pasture by his useless boss. In exchange for some retirement money, the rider agrees to the head of the 11-year-old son from his rich Mexican ex-wife kidnapped. Of course, things take an unexpected turn when the ex-wife is all too happy to rid of her juvenile delinquents.

Apparently, Schwarzenegger has been with the project more than a decade before the policies became his focus. Could be a nice departure from the action of each is expected by Schwarzenegger after his return. I’ve never been entirely convinced by his dramatic chops, but I’m willing to give it a shot. Hell, if Dwayne Johnson seeks to play a country singing sensation, then it can try Schwarzenegger without my having a bleat.
