The opening rap lyric of “Fast & Furious 6” professes that “Only God can judge,” which is as fitting a mantra for the entire “Fast” series as you’ll find this side of a NASCAR track. For really, what is there to judge? The cars go extremely fast, the (non-supporting) ladies traipse around in skimpy outfits, and the stunts somehow get bigger and badder each and every time out of the gate. Plausibility? Uhh, no thanks. Realistic aerial physics? Ha, good one! Jocular humor combined with death-defying action? Well, sure, yes please, and drive through safely. This is a franchise entirely comfortable with what it is, what it’s not, and what it has to offer. It has a whole mess of “Fast” for us all, and woe be the souls who enter this film hoping to go slow.
Since I have no intention of seeing this upcoming film, I thought it might be nice to link you to a review of the film from someone who apparently liked it, for those Fast and Furious fans amongst the MovieByte readership. I mean, I won’t judge y… ahh HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Who am I kidding, yes I will. But that’s okay. You don’t have to let me know about it! Then I can’t judge you.
Have fun with Fast and Furious... and stuff…
