Hi,
Been a while since I gave my own take on a Hollywood movie
but after I saw the latest movie from the Fast & Furious franchise, I knew I
had to say something.
First of all, if you love Fast cars, flying men and
over-used comic punch lines, you will certainly love this movie. It will be
nice to see men who weigh 120kg of raw bones and muscle haul themselves in the
air like paper kites…well, if that’s what tickles your fancy.
Then of course, there’s the chick fights which starred my
all-time favorite; Michelle Rodriguez and for that, I will let the sloppy
continuity errors slide. As for the guy fights? It’s all the hardcore, body-slamming,
neck-breaking tag-team action you’ll get to see Friday nights on Wrestlemania; the
regular actors inclusive. At some point, I thought Dwanye Johnson was about to
mount a car and do his signature pose while the audience cheered, “Can you
smell what The Rock is cooking?!!”(Who am I kidding? I secretly wished he
would) But, don’t get me wrong, there’s more to the fights that I can describe,
after all, you did pay N1500 for something you would watch for free on TV.
But hey, don’t go thinking that the movie isn’t a must-see,
because you ‘must see’ Ludacris with his shirt off (teehee) and the best part,
Jason Statham (yes, you read right…Jason “the Transporter guy” Statham) make a
threatening phone call while walking away from an exploding car. That’ll
definitely get you thinking why in the world wasn’t he in the other five
movies???
xoxo
