Why is this so popular?

How would i describe Fast Five? Preposterous! Ridiculous! Absurd! The film is riddled with one-liners and stunts that would kill the average human(except for Chuck Norris, but is he really human), yet it is entertaining for a summer popcorn film. i have seen all of the series, except for The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift and this one seems to be the worst of all. It is like they said lets take all the good parts of all the previous films and through it together. Unfortunately it does not work. This film was about them stealing cars, but they don't show many cars in the film and they hint at races, but skip to the next scene, so we don't actually see the races. We meet some characters, but only for as minute and then they almost disappear for the rest of the film. As i stated above, it is still entertaining, but... Just check your brain at the door.
