Jason Momoa, Vin Diesel, and the Fast crew are back for the biggest Fast Saga movie yet and it completely fails on almost every level. We dive deep into where it all went wrong for Fast X.

  • 3 ideas they can explore 1. Crossover with transformers 2. Crossover with jurassic park 3. They legit get superpowers

    If I had a nickel for every time they said family in the entire fast and furious series you could probably use it to fund the next movie
  • @Wrazzix
    Man, at this point the only way they can make all this makes sense, is if in the last movie, near the ending, Dom wakes up in Santo Domingo and realized it was all a dream 🤣🤣
  • @J-fg4zk
    Physicist would have an heart attack on the spot when he see weight, gravity and physics laws being violated the entire movie 😂
  • @tuguimp
    Dom is gonna get behind the wheel and drive so fast that he's gonna go back in time and fix everything....you're welcome
  • @catalan500_8
    It wasn’t bad. It was actually kinda fun. What turned it into garbage was them trying to pretend they could make us think they killed everybody off…and then they show us Giselle is back. Like wtf.
  • my biggest gripe with the movie was that throughout the entire film dom doesn’t even ONCE drop a sweat, he literally drove a car down a dam with flames chasing onto him crashed into the water and still didn’t even get a single scar. he came out the movie exactly the same way he looked from the start
  • This franchise lost its way after paul walkers passing. They should of stop at 7
  • A plane crash may be strong, but family is stronger. Tej, Roman, and Ramsay will survive that crash because of the power of family granting Dom the Infinity Stones and Gauntlet to revive them
  • @nyyempire
    Out of all the reviews I’ve seen from this movie. Nobody has pointed out Dom ramp off a bridge hitting the side of a crane and stopping the rolling bomb. Lmao
  • @strmhendrix2582
    It was hilarious how they made Jason Momoa to be a fruity psycho lmao
  • @tashrif46
    The soul of the franchise was always Paul Walker's Brian O'Connor. He was the one we as the audience could relate to in Fast and Furious movie. Once Paul died and Brian was written off, it never was the same to be honest. Furious 7 was the last time I was invested in a Fast and Furious movie and even though 8 and 9 had some great moments, it was not the same. Really does say a lot when the only thing I loved about Fast X is when Dom was looking at those old photos in his garage and the See You Again instrumental kicks in and also when Dom saved Elena's sister Isabella and gave the cop and a street racer have a lot in common speech.

    Hobbs’ character was completely different comparing F5 to Hobbs & Shaw.

    I love these stupid nonsense movies, I would give it a 7/10 for just being entertained by the absurd and illogical mess of a film. Plus watching it with the boiz and laughing along to all the stupid things and sharing that experience together was worth the ticket price :D
  • You made some really really good points that the Fast people should take note of. I honestly did not enjoy the movie and just wanted to know how it would end. I didn't expect a Fast movie with consistent plot but man it was truly bad. Aime's partnership with Dante made the whole Rio bridge scene ridiculous. Cipher and Dante's beef was unjustified. They should also stop bringing back dead characters. I felt like Watson in Sherlock when he came back from the dead. We all made our peace with Han's and Giselle's death but now they're back? John Cena's death was also like meh. At least give him an out like Merlin in Kingsman. They failed to press on Tokyo Drift's potential. Although I like Dante's character, I feel he's sort of cliche now. At this point, I am gonna see the next Fast films just to give myself closure.
  • Tokyo Drift is the most raw street racing film back in the days the techinality of the Drifting race and how they dont just depend on using NOS to win. Its not about just the speed in tokyo drift but timing and precision. People who dont like Tokyo Drift are the stereotype "Street Racing Fanatic".
  • @dhruv9744
    I think we're retroactively rewriting history here a lil bit. Fust and Furious 6 and Furious 7 were well loved, and even Fate of the Furious was a mixed bag, it was only at F9 that the majority of the audience started considering it bad. Saying that they were hated from the start is misrepresenting the audience's perception of the franchise.
  • @subjectdelta4758
    They should’ve ended the series after 7. It had the perfect send off.
  • @Jasson591
    Mamoa was superb in this. Definitely the highlight of the film, why the apparent upset of vin for Jason stealing the show, I don't understand, you WANT an interesting villain don't you? To keep people on their toes 😂
  • I have this one crazy theory. What is most absurd thing they haven't done yet? Time travel. I think that everybody is dead, but somehow Dom and Hobbs are going back in time and will save everybody. We joked that they would go to space, and they actually did. Well next step to absolute madness is time travel.
