Fast Five (2011)

Fast Five

after Brian n Mia rescued Dom from being sent into prison, they were wanted across the borders. they landed in Rio de Janeiro, with Vince offering them a job to earn fast cash. however they discovered the Brazilians they were assigned to team up with, were hiding something in one of the cars. they ran off with the Brazilian drug lord hot on their tails. Hobbs, a federal agent that never failed his mission, was assigned on the case. they crossed fire n finally decide which side he wanted to be in.

unfortunately, after the first few Fast n Furious sequels, the remaining sequels offered nothing new. they neither race as much, nor steal as much car. however, we were surprised to still be able to had lots of fun watching its fifth sequel! a change from the typical races was actually good, involving crossfire was something fresh n exciting. n when you put The Rock together with Vin Diesel, it was a bang! at some point, it was hilarious having 2 baldies fighting each other; however it didn't reduce the tension of their action at all, but heating it further!

  1. Hey Levian!

    This is a movie I've been wanting to check out, and I hope to soon. Yes, having The Rock and Vin Diesel in the same cast is something worth seeing for sure.

    Have a great week my friend! :D

  5. I've not seen any of the Fast and Furious movies, but have noticed them on the shelf at my video store.

    After your review, I really do think I need to rent them.

    Thanks for sharing, Levian! Hope you had a FAB Monday!

    i understand, many didn't like it because of that as well. but for me, i prefer unpredictability, so it was still enjoyable for me.

    ayie:

    jacc:
    my guess is, you are one of those racing fans?
