And years after his family was destroyed, Dante is coming back to do the same to Dom Toretto and the rest of his family. In an interview with Total Film (via GamesRadar) in February 2023, director Louis Leterrier confirmed that Dante is the son of Hernan Reyes’ the ruthless crime lord at the heart of Fast Five who was killed by the Toretto gang when they were carrying out the film’s memorable and over-the-top heist sequence, thus serving as a connection between Fast X and 2011’s Fast Five. This time around, Dom and company will add another foe to the rogue’s gallery with the introduction of Jason Momoa’s Dante, a mysterious, flamboyant, and incredibly explosive criminal mastermind with ties to the group’s past. Yes, the film gets bogged down by a really dated and contrived script, but there's so much undeniable fun to be had here.Over the years, the Toretto crew has come face-to-face with its fair share of furious villains ranging from Johnny Tran in The Fast and the Furious to the Cipher, who has become a perennial thorn in the side of the gang since being introduced in The Fate of the Furious. In camera stunts may be this franchise's finest assets, and the last highway heist in this film is a thing of beauty. The real joy of this film comes by its goofiest and most outlandish moments, but also with its impressive stunts and action. I guess my point is, if you don't accept the film for what it is, I don't think you'll have any fun with it.
Creative huh? At one point, Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) tells someone to back off or she will scar her face with tire tracks. The climax of the film begins at an event called Race Wars.
There's an underground motorcycle gang who steals DVD players and stashes them in a Thai-food restaurant.
FAST AND FURIOUS SERIES
This film is extremely dated, but it's an interesting watch, especially considering where the series has gone to now. In fact, it's way easier to watch this film now that I've seen every installment to date. But that won't be the last time the film could have you roll your eyes. Oh and those hundreds of people each have their own car and parking spot, that is. Where Furious 7 pushes the boundaries of reality by driving cars via one building to the next, The Fast and the Furious provides the unbelievable through street car races with seemingly a few hundred people. That word, "possible", will be used sparingly through the course of this film and the entire series. So much so that when I was younger I believed it was possible. They drive their cars (successfully) underneath semi-trucks several times throughout the film.
FAST AND FURIOUS MOVIE
But let's talk about how ridiculous, stupid, and fun this movie is. It's not the best acting, writing, or directing, but you care enough about the characters to where you believe the motivations behind characters' actions regarding family. For all its faults, no one can deny how well this film does the family angle. That's for sure.Ī lot has changed over the years in the series, but the one constant has always been that the films are about family. But you know what, it was a darn good guilty pleasure movie. It was once a cheesy Point Break rip-off that took itself way too seriously.
