What's to review?

Rating: 2/10 (18 March 2014)

This is not a movie, its a clip-show of stunts. There's not a lot of point in reviewing "Fast & Furious 6" because nobody is going to watch this as a movie; you'll watch it to see the stunts and you'll watch it for only as long as the escalating scope and scale of those stunts can hold your attention. For what its worth, the heart of the (I use this term loosely) plot is a mcguffin. Usually this device is used to drive a story; in the case of "F&F 6" the only thing it drives is cars, trucks, a plane and...uhm, no, that might count as a spoiler. Let's just say there's a sequence that is a militarist's wet dream and walk away. No character development, an awesome array of destruction, no wit, no sense, and dialogue unworthy of an 8th grade melodrama. But we do get to watch, listen and cringe as Vin Diesel tries to do sensitive and romantic. THAT'S worth something. But in the end, remember that Paul Walker died making "F&F 6," and that is both tragic and ironic.
