FATE OF THE FURIOUS

Plot:

No longer fugitives, Dom (Diesel) and Letty (Rodriguez) are now just hanging out in Cuba, enjoying a simple modest life. Dom has pretty much taken on a daily routine that will soon be interrupted when he has a chance encounter with a woman named Cipher (Theron) who he believed to be stranded until she notifies him that his services is required for a job that he can't refuse nor mention to his friends or team. Upon completing the first task, Dom betrays his team and leaves Hobbs (Johnson) to take the fall, leading to his imprisonment. The only way to prove his innocence, Hobbs must escape prison but also reunite and reluctantly team with his old nemesis and current prison mate Deckard (Statham) so that they can hook up with Letty and the other team members to stop and capture the rogue Dom and the evil and mysterious Cipher who wants to build a weapon that will give her nuclear control.


Reel Talk:

This is the eighth installment into the Fast and Furious franchise and you can bet not the last. Yes the gang is back together for another wild and crazy ride. Now the truth is that this is not by no means the best one yet, it really may be the most cheesiest but and I do say "but", this film series is designed to entertain, with high levels of testosterone, extreme and over the top action and fast exotic cars. So mission accomplished because it will serve the purpose intended. The addition of Charlize Theron makes it interesting because of the ruthlessness of her villain character Cipher. So this film is worth the money, just go there expecting what you need to expect from it and that is an action packed, fast car driving movie.
