"Furious 7 makes cars fly and people cry"

Rating: 9/10 (9 December 2015)

Finally, the anticipated Furious 7 has been released in theaters! Get ready to experience some next level action, as cars jump out of planes and buildings! Just like the rest of the series, Furious 7 has some action and it's very exciting! But it is also very emotional, and it was genuinely moving at times. As you all know, one of the main actors, Paul Walker died last year in a car crash while in the filming process of this movie. Due to his passing during the production of the movie, his two brothers had to replace him with the help of CGI work. It was extremely devastating for the entire cast and crew. They even had to take a step back to figure out if they could finish it and how. Luckily, director James Wan created an amazing finale that was absolutely beautiful for the character and to Paul Walker's memory.
In many ways, this franchise has evolved so much from where they started. They were able to embrace diversity and use that as a strength! My eyes teared up as the music "See You Again" started playing, not just because it was wonderful, but it brought to me so many memories from the times when Brian O' Conner (Paul Walker) was on screen. Also, the song goes well with the movie because the characters are well known for their gangster style family.
Unlike the previous Fast and Furious movie series, you can jump right in even though you've never seen any of the Fast and Furious series. The film opens with an introduction of Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham). He seeks revenge against Domonic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his family for injuring his brother. That's it. The movie plot is that simple! However, there are a lot of complicated technicalities that the screenwriter throws at the audience. But in the end, the film is driven by the most underlying motivations.
The plot is unimportant. Family is everything, and "Furious 7" is a blast! The movie director of "Saw" and "Conjuring", James Wan did a great job in making a confident jump to a big budget action filmmaking. He tries everything to make sure that every scene has a sense of momentum, whether it's just the dialogue or one of those crazy monster action scenes. We are not sure if the next movie will come out, but it will sure feel empty without Paul Walker.
