A good tribute movie and a great action one

Rating: Null/10 (9 December 2015)

Through most of the movie I was waiting for the tragic death of Paul Walker's character. It says something about the franchise that they didn't go that way. That instead the movie gave Paul Walkers character a kind of happy ending. The movie itself became more of a tribute to him and in so doing that lifted itself out of a mere action movie into something more. Yes there are the usual things you see in the franchise. This is a high octane action movie after all. There is a scene where you literally see a car flying from one building to the next. Hell flying cars is what made this franchise famous. Like every version of the franchise it has its flaws. However if you like Fast & Furious movies I would highly recommend this one. If for nothing else then to say goodby to Paul Walker.
