Fast Fans: You Have to See this Movie

Rating: 10/10 (4 April 2015)

When it comes to the Fast and Furious movies, you are either a fan or you're not. If you're not, there's really no reason to write a review here. The fact is that one of the stars of this film died during production and they still turned out an honorable film (in more ways than one) with the help of Paul Walker's brothers as doubles and some good, but sometimes noticeable CGI.
If you are a fan of this franchise, you need to go see this movie. Yes, it's over the top. Yes the dialog could be better. But what are we really there for? We're there for the ride that the last few movies have promised us, and we're there to see Paul Walker's final performance. If you're part of the "family" as I am, you'll be very satisfied with this movie, especially how they keep you on the edge of your seat for two hours wondering how they're going to answer the biggest question you'll have on your mind while watching it: how will Brian (Paul Walker's character) go? To even touch on ANY scene is to give you a spoiler. But get ready, the fights are better, the explosions are bigger, and the stunts are unbelievable. I was worried when I saw that the director from the "Saw" movies was at the helm, primarily because that was a purposely low budget consumer money grab that he gloated about publicly. However, after watching the film, you won't even realize that the director has changed. Fast fans, you won't be disappointed. Furious Seven delivers on all cylinders. RIP Paul Walker.
