Review Byte

You walk into the movie expecting fast cars, cheesy one-liners, and amplified action sequences...you walk out with just that. This flick is well-aware of the kind of entertainment it's meant to be and doesn't fail to deliver just the kind of popcorn flick you expect to see...nothing more, nothing less. Yes, there are laughable moments in the movie that defy all forms of logic, but at this point it almost feels as if it comes with the franchise. Overall, this adrenaline-filled movie is no fine piece of film, but it doesn't pretend to be either.

Raves

• Follows the fresh, fast-paced attitude of Fast Five
• Embraces its mindless amusement
• The purpose of this franchise in the first place: fast cars and street races
• Gina Carano's fight scenes
• Post-credits scene (arguably, the best part of the movie)

Rants

• Absurd action sequences that ignore all laws of physics, gravity, etc...
• Almost non-existent acting
• Laughably cheese-tastic lines
• Longest. Runway. Ever.

Fun Fact
Needless to say, stay for the post-credits scene.

Final Consensus 

A definite must-watch for Fast & Furious fans. Otherwise, watch if you're in the mood for action or else it may come off as too mindless.
