Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster are back to reprise their role in the fourth and probably the best Fast & Furious movie to date. Even Han from Tokyo Drift made a cameo. If ever Vin Diesel is planning to do another one, the story must be deeper, the action more intense and the cars much faster than Fast & Furious 4. Right from the first truck-jacking scene, the audience was made to experience action packed sequences not scene from the previous F&F movies.
The fourth Fast & Furious installment featured car chases but the cars are not the stars of the movie, unlike the first three F&F. I was hoping to see more cars and street races. This is the only disappointment I had with this movie.
This time the focus is on Vin Diesel and Paul Walker. Just like in the first one, they are trying to get into a drug cartel. But this time around, they have their own reasons for doing so. Or so they think.
If only Letty didn’t offer to drive for Campos in exchange for Dom’s freedom then they would not be in that predicament. Diesel and Walker were both going for Campos’ boss, not knowing that he’s in front of them all the time.
Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel): I like 20% angel, 80% devil.
Although Dom is talking about Letty, this could be said about Fast & Furious 4. It got all the nice stuff together with badass action. It might not win an Oscar but it rejuvenated the franchise. It is definitely the best of the series so far.
