Becoming a spy series

Rating: 7/10 (4 April 2015)

I gave this a 7 only because the action was pretty cool. As this one follows directly behind the last one and Tokyo Drift the story becomes more complicated again. This time the tech is brought to the next level and has nothing to do with the cars or really anything that has been portrayed in the last films. All of the movies that have transpired since the first 2 have had nothing to do with racing or the lifestyle that we all loved with the first one. In this one Leti all of sudden gets her memory back at the right time, Hobbs is injured for most of the movie and the rest of it turns into a Mission Impossible movie. All of the "hacks" and equipment in this movie make all of the cars and stunts really irrelevant. Drones hacking materials and the big brother of Shaw that will not die. I really hope if there are anymore of these films they will go back to their roots instead of all over the globe in search for a criminal. If I wanted to see a movie about awesome gear and tracking down bad guys then I would go for the new Mission Impossible. Point to this is do not go into this thinking that it is going to be any different from other movies, there is nothing special about this other than the ridiculous stunts that a car would never make it through and, the slow start and pacing time throughout the film. I find myself with each of these newer Furious titles that I would only really want to see it once as they are getting that ridiculous.I truly do hate the fact that this is my view on these now as I have been to every opening of these films since the first one and because they are so far fetched, it is really hard to enjoy them.
