Leave Five Times Faster.

Rating: 2/10 (3 June 2015)

Fast Five (2011): Dir: Justin Lin / Cast: Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Dwayne Johnson: Another tire screeching waste of time. The title only references the fact that there is five of these dreadful road kill movies. There are certainly more than five drivers. It basically assembles a bunch of guys from earlier films whose careers were obviously going nowhere for them all to agree to this garbage. Director Justin Lin previously made the two sequels before this, Tokyo Drift and Fast and Furious and despite the massive stunts and car wrecking action the screenplays brings nothing new to the situation other than being set in South America where they all hide out. Vin Diesel announces that there will be one more job and it will involve a clash with corrupt law enforcement. Dwayne Johnson is featured as a law official whose presence only serves as an opportunity to have him scrap it out with Diesel. Paul Walker and Jordana Brewster also return and apparently he knocked her up and a child is on the way. Outside of that they sustain no personalities. Then there is a whole slew of people from previous films including Tyrese Gibson whose work in Baby Boy is a far cry to the crap he does here. Dwayne Johnson plays a muscle bound cop whose role consists of being in a brawl with Diesel. These films are pretty much all the same with just a change in location to add any difference. With all the dangerous driving in society one would imagine that this junk would be taken a tad more seriously but it serves only as entertainment fit to be crushed underneath the screeching rubber. Score: 2 / 10
