Colder than the Ice they drove upon! total Waste!
The people are ready to cheer, the crowd is anticipating some crazy stunt, everyone is poised to scream on the top of their lungs! But unfortunately this film doesn’t give out many moments to cheer and go wow!
Primarily, every good scene has been spoilt by the trailers… every cheer worthy moment is expected and when it arrives, the delivery is flat.
Fast and the Furious 8 (as it is called in India) is like a Rohit Shetty film with Salman khan as its star.
This was the blandest of the new F&F movies in a while. It’s not a bad film, but it is suffering from having a not so good director at the helm. So much action happens, none of it consequential!
The face-off between Dominic Vs his Family is sort of half-baked and doesn’t reach its conclusion, they turn the villains of the shaw brothers (yes, the ones who killed han) into pretty likeable and good guys! Overall its quite a mess!
So this movie is like Pani Puri, those who like it, will eat it no matter what! But if a somewhat sweet, bit tangy, puri dripping with overdone action scenes is not for you, this film won’t change your opinion of the franchise.
Rating: 4/10. The fans of the series might like this film. But non fans need to stay away!
Ps.: The previous films emotion ending and awesome ending made it totally worth the entertainer, this film ends on such a whimper that you wonder where the last part of the film is gone? Where is last hurrah? nothing there!
Even if you skip this whole film and goto the next in line (there is one coming) nothing really happens so the whole film was just pointless!

It seems they are just 'dragging' the franchise now! |

Taklo ka Mahayudh
lacks the rawness of the past few iterations. They are simply stretching it, beating a dead horse, milking the cow till she dies. I wonder what next? Because I am no more excited...

The Fate of the Furious is a film directed by F. Gary Gray. This film series is one of the most anticipated every time it comes out. And yes, I too have expectations from this franchise. And yes, it delivered.
Plot: Dom gets sucked into the world of cyber-terrorism after Cipher threatens him.
Story and direction: If you decide to watch this series actually with some story in it, please don't go to the halls. It is basically for hardcore FF fans. I myself was a fan of the series only after the fourth part (since most of the racing is finished after the third part). This part of the franchise links both the 6th and 7th parts of the film, which I quite liked. The twist which is revealed quite early in the film was not actually something that was satisfying. Cipher's character is one hell of a bad-ass character written. I thought nobody would beat Jason Statham character in FF7. But hell yeah Cipher is the best villain in the entire franchise till now. I hope they bring her in future installments (Yes, 2 more parts are still there).
Acting: Vin Diesel was good in this part too. We see the old Dom Toretto . The Rock who people quite missed in the seventh part (I also) was back with some Major chunk of role in the film. Jason Statham was also good. Tyrese, used as comic relief in the film gives many laughs. Also providing laughs is Scott Eastwood, playing Nobody's assistant. We also see him driving some cars and getting to action (which I didn't expect). But yes, a special mention to Charlize Theron. Although she didn't have action scenes to support her role, the role was well written and executed with perfection by her. Kurt Russell too was good.
Other departments: Music used by Brian Tyler was good. The VFX was also great. And yes, the stunts.. With each of the franchises we see a great number of action sequences (that is what basically this film is made for). And hell yeah, I was impressed with each of the action and stunt sequences. I watched it in 3D. Which made the fun even 3 times better.
Favorite Scene: I guess it would be the scene where Rock cheers the girl's to victory and has some sort of victory dance in the beginning of the match. That was quite funny to watch. He even forces an official to cheer for the girl's victory.
Verdict: On that note, I would like to say that FF8 delivers. Although it has some minor mistakes, I came out of the hall satisfied. There is even another tribute to the character Brian on the film (hell I miss you Paul Walker). It is less entertaining that the seventh part, but satisfying.
I will give this an 8/10.
