AN/ALQ128 Posted January 25, 2020 Posted January 25, 2020 I miss the more grounded atmosphere of the first couple FnF movies. Granted, that particular cultural zeitgeist of early 2000's tuner culture is dead, but it made for a more unique experience than "superhero movie but with cars", which the recent ones have leaned towards.

I agree about the unique experience thing, so I understand where you're coming from. But despite being in my early 20s in the early 2000s the tuner culture here in Western PA was less serious street racing and more posers slapping some neon and fart cans on beater Civics, and the early F&F films really didn't resonate with me. I found the franchise to be more enjoyable after it devolved into ludicrously over-the-top summer action movies.

no3Ljm Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 They should've left out Mia in this movie. Because now you will ask yourself where is Brian in all of this.

The thing about the original movie nobody ever brings up is that it was beat for beat a remake of Point Break but with cars.

Knight26 Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Why dear god, why? Please let this horrid franchise die.
Seto Kaiba Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 Well, that was certainly a thing that I watched... I have no idea what any of it means, but I definitely watched it.
505thAirborne Posted April 14, 2021 Posted April 14, 2021 The first movie was fun and that's where it could have ended.
Roy Focker Posted April 26, 2021 Posted April 26, 2021 At what point in did they make the jump from Illegal Street Racers to International Crime Fighting Force of Street Racers? I haven't seen all the movies and the ones I saw was out of order.

Seto Kaiba Posted May 31, 2021 Posted May 31, 2021 I wonder if this one'll be hurt by the current backlash against John Cena.
