Even worse than I expected. Even though the original cast is there and it looks like a dignified sequel, the screenwriters cook up something crazy they call a script, and they throw in some cars, crazy digital chases in tunnels, and the classic masculine charisma of Paul Walker and Vin Diesel, and it doesn't work. For car enthusiasts, it will be torture because there are only a few really good chases. For action movie fans, it will also be a tough nut to crack because there is a lot of action, but it's not worth anything. And for fans of the main characters, it will just be a sad nostalgic memory of the first and only original installment. A very botched thing.

A return to the days when action heroes deserved endless admiration. Although some things may creak, especially the plot or Brian's investigative methods, I still enjoy it just the same. Everyone involved from the first installment literally shines in a grand opportunity, and the action continues to take my breath away, to my delight and slight relief. The threat that history would repeat itself with a decline in quality was proven to be the exact opposite, as the reboot, instead of copying the original in its uniqueness, opened doors to a scale many times larger. The fourth installment will remain unique in the series precisely because it hinted at future things while remaining a nostalgic spectacle with classic elements such as revenge or a love story.

So what I have to remind you: The home's actual reconstruction; how Letty a.k.a. Criminal Las Vegas ended; I thought Brian spent the whole film pussyfooting around; it was clear he was eventually going to close the deal; damn, why was Han there so little; yes, the ending made me laugh like hell :-D and in general so everything I've superficially listed here left a sad smile on my face... ;-) What a party, beautiful cars! Too bad that the one Brian built blew up – and anyway, all the cars I liked blew up at that moment – it really was a pain in the ass, even the left-hand drive... ^_^ Well, it was a lot of fun. If there's another installment, I'll definitely watch it. I think I'd give it an extra star if I saw it in better quality. Ah well, it’s done. Maybe one day I'll give it a ratings boost. I couldn't stand the sight of a chamber drama and went for exhaust fumes instead XoD

Gal Gadot entered the Fast & Furious franchise with this installment, and that's about the only reason to wade through this silly mess. These formerly simple action films used to feature second-rate beauties such as Jordana Brewster and Michelle Rodriguez, but only Gadot has made it to Wonder Woman.

Good and unpretentious entertainment slightly above the level of the first part. The characters aren't very complex but it doesn't matter at all because I trusted the actors; the action scenes are honest (except maybe the overly digital finale of the first one) and it all paces and progresses nicely thanks to Justin Lin's direction and Brian Tyler's music. I would have loved to see the final dusty chase in the cinema.
