One star, offensively stupid movie


Basic idea of movie: bad guys win in the end as mass murderering thieves kill hundreds of innocent bystanders, get money and cool cars.

Ans why is Paul Walker even a star?

reply

So true.

I'd rate it a bit higher than one star, but that's pretty much what I didn't like about the movie. I cared about the characters in the previous movies, but in this one they were only slightly better than the real bad guys. I found myself cheering on Hobbs for most of the movie, and he was trying to catch them.

Because they be cool like dat..

I agree. The movie is beyond stupid. I'm thinking of rating it 1 star as well to offset the crazy high score. Though I'll probably be honest about my raking and not resort to "rate balancing" like Marvel fanbois do for their movies.
4/10

They aren't that bad. I mean IMO a corrupt "investor" who basically runs Rio drug cartel is THE bad guy. While Torreto and his crew were on the run, the only people they killed were Reyes men. Watch it again. Closely this time. Not one innocent bystander was killed by them. Not one.
