It is what it is - 5,9/10

Rating: 6/10 (24 May 2013)

Fast & Furious 6, what can I say? I mean, my expectations were really low and boy were they met. I'm not saying the type of low like "This is going to be bad", more like "Hmm, I might give this a shot". The director Justin Lin doesn't try to do anything else other than sticking to the trashy film that it is, and I would give him and the movie credit for that. But more? Nope, I think people are giving it too much credit for that. Sure, there were some "good" trashy action set-pieces in there, some muscle(cars), a tank, big guns, and... Nothing more. Maybe Vin Diesel flying across a very big gap between two bridges to save Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) and landing on a car breaking the laws of physics - why? Because "She is family, and family stick together, you don't turn your back on them even if they do", or something. One thing maybe worth mentioning are the physical performances by everyone in the movie, especially the ladies.
Everything "good" that was in the movie was already in the trailer, so what I ended up doing was just waiting for the scenes to pass by. There was a sequence in it where they had to drive after an airplane, and then they actually brought it down with some hooks and whatnot. That sequence goes on for about 15 minutes, which means that the runway must've been very, very long. And of course after that sequence they get to the end of the runway. A lot of innocent people also died in the scene with the tank (where it just runs over random cars with unimportant people in them).
A lot of people did laugh, and they laughed a lot. The only thing that made me chuckle was probably The Rock himself just him being there. The only time I actually laughed was when the title "Furious 6" (If you have seen the movie you'll know which one I mean) came up because some guy in the back shouted "6 Furious". And I am not joking when I tell you that it was the only time during the movie that I actually laughed.
This movie left me very uninterested and bored because of the plot, story, badly written characters and the dumb dialogues. I couldn't enjoy the big action set-pieces because I was so bored. So in general, this is a boring movie in every kind of way. And the fact that people in the audience gave a it big round of applause after the movie ended just made me wanna stick my head in the sand.
