A tribute well made

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 2015)

For everyone riding on huge expectations for another mind blowing fast and furious sequel are in for a bit of a disappointment. While some off beat car chases and spectacular camera works around stunts will have you digging into your skin, no doubt, you will feel something missing.
James Wan and crew have clearly expressed the loss of their closest member over the course of the movie. Starting with the head on car collisions and the numerous one liners about family to the good five minute tribute that goes out to Paul in the end.
You will be reminded of the pain of never being able to see him on screen again. He was spectacular as ever and I have only the best of adjectives to describe how well suited he was for the role and no doubt, more sequels are on the way for the Dominic, Letty and crew but no one can ever reprise the role of Brian O Connor which is why it is justly shown that he retires from all the high octane action to taking care of his family with Mia.
There are, of course some of those jaw dropping scenes sprinkled generously in the trailers which will not leave you feeling completely disappointed. James Wan signature rolling the camera along the motion is worthy of mention, what better way to watch Statham and the Rock throwing those punches.
But really, your disappointment will quickly be replaced by an emotional melancholy feeling, and it is only fitting.
His words to Toretto "Did you really think I would leave without saying goodbye" will get to you more than you think it will.
Do not miss this one.
