A ride indeed.

Rating: 10/10 (4 April 2015)

Just had my second viewing and wow. This movie has it ALL. As a die hard fan since the beginning I loved every bit of this movie. It actually took a while to process everything I just saw because it is really full on, and that's not a bad thing at all.
Action is the best it has ever been and so are the stunts. There is some great continuation of the story and it ties all the movies up together pretty nicely. Tokyo Drift finally gets complete after the cameo Vin did in 2006. There was no race between DK and Dom which was a slight bummer but it was hinted Dom won, still a great scene and a nice throwback seeing Bow Wow and Nathalie Kelly briefly (Tokyo Drift footage).
Now knowing the tragic passing of Paul Walker, this film handled it well by using CGI to finish the movie. Props to everyone involved who did that, I can't imagine how hard that job must have been. After everything that happened and to just finish off the movie. The CGI for the most part was good, there is only so much you can do.
The one thing that stuck out as the most memorable and emotional part was the tribute to Paul Walker. From the beach scene all the way to the end. It was beautifully done.
