I only have one problem, so let's get that out the way first. I don't like a motion picture ending like a TV series ending a season. This one is even moreso an issue because way too many open plot lines. However, unless they've already shot part two to this tenth installment, they can't bank on everyone still living IRL to be around next time. Understand? So, I hope they've already filled it and cut it in half.
Now, I did like the movie. Toretto drive hell out of some cars. Not sure how street racing prepared him to use cars the way he does, but sure. All suspension of belief must be left at the door and turn off the brain. Be entertained and see what the story is trying to do. Coming off watching Sisu, not sure I'm digging the villain here. So, he's going the Joker from Dark Knight here, times two. What I mean is, he poses so many questions and all of the just so happens and things left here and there was if he could know who'd be where ahead of time. Lex Luthor is a great villain, but even he couldn't prepare this all ahead of time, especially explosives in certain places.
Too many cameos, unless there's a part two to this tenth installation. I don't do spoilers, but twice I rolled my eyes on a reveal. Oh, Dom was given a choice that I disagreed with because the other option was more valuable, but the plot said that his choice has a connection to him greater than the other option. Without spoilers, you know it when you see it in Brasil. Also, how they travel so much but have cars when they touch down is funny, but this series of movies says it ok. I gave Sisu a 7.5, and Dom having Sisu, can't get a 7 out of me. I'm gonna watch this movie again because it's fun! It's far out like Angelina's Wanted movie where they curve bullets, but it's fun cinema.
