Every time a movie in this franchisee comes out you always think that this might just be better than the previous movie although there is something at the back of your mind, reminding you not to keep your hopes too high. After Brazil, Hobbs (Johnson) asks Dominic Toretto (Diesel) to help him take down Shaw (Evans) a criminal who is after a computer component that can potentially put the world at risk and shows him a picture of his former girlfriend, Letty (Rodriguez) whom he thought was dead. After being promised a full pardon and a clean slate for him and his team, the group finds themselves in London, England to face their next adventure. Brian O'Conner (Waulker), Roman (Gibson), Han (Sung Kang), Gisele (Gadot), Tej (Bridges) and Riley (Carano) comprise of the team that would assist Hobbs and Toretto in this mission. The producers of the movie aimed at making the franchisee more like a heist movie with cars involved rather focusing purely on street racing. Hence the transition over the years to now have a complete action movie with fast cars. The movie does have enough juice for any car lover to drool and love but you can never compare it to the realism or originality that some of the more epic car scenes in movie history. Yes there are some over-the-top insane stunts, there is more than one unbelievable moment (take for example a never-ending runway, an Alfa Romeo capable of pulling down an army-spec cargo carrier, or jumping across bridges) but these moments seemed to have purposefully put in simply to create the entertainment value. If it is pure automobile action that you lust then the movie delivers, but if it is an action movie with a sensible story and plot that you demand then the movie would not live up to expectations. Enjoy the cars and the girls and forget all the rest.

Thumbs down: Somehow the movie expects you to remember every minute detail from the past three movies
