The last couple FF movies were much much better in terms of story, still over the top action, but they had some feeling. The motives of the villain are silly and unclear, the villains henchmen are targets for shooting practice.
The characters have no real spunk behind them, they just appear, because they have to. Enough with the "lets hack into a network of satellites in 10 seconds". This thing about cyber terrorism where everyone is a hacker, but no one uses a mouse on a computer, they all just type in front of a holographic screen with moving images from a Star Trek movie. Those disappointing years ended with Fast Five, Fast & Furious 6 and Furious 7, which have all passed both $200m in the United States box-office and 60% in Metacritic reviewers’ ratings.The action is fine (although it is a Transformers, Michael Bay kind of action), but that script, oh my god the script is so cheesy. As made clear in graphs published by The Telegraph, the second, third and fourth movies saw a lull in both critical acclaim and box-office hauls. However, for the most part, the critical responses to the Fast and the Furious movies have been foreshadowing their financial successes. Furthermore, it wasn’t until the fifth film that the 60% mark was finally surpassed. To date, reviews gathered by Metacritic awarded the film a score, on average, of a little under 60%. However, at the time, few critics likely believed that there was a major, consistently blockbusting franchise being tinkered with in distributor Universal Pictures’ garage. The series’ first film, simply titled The Fast and the Furious, sped into theaters with the ferocity of one of its illegally-driven cars way back in 2001. With familiar favorites Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson and others returning and Charlize Theron joining the fold, the movie easily excites - and also reminds us of that Apple Car. The film has already clocked a world record opening, capturing an estimated $532.5 million during its first weekend. We were about to ask whether you had seen The Fate of the Furious, the latest theatrical installment in the Fast and the Furious franchise however, judging from the box-office takings so far, you probably saw it a while ago. actually, we’re probably asking far too late.
