There’s something about muscle cars, guys with muscles, explosions, and hot girls that just screams, “MAKE SIX MOVIES ABOUT THIS STUFF!” Fast and Furious 6 got a lot of buzz from the short trailer that appeared during the Super Bowl, and now we get a full three and a half minutes of fast talking, fast driving, and EXPLOSIONS!
Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Dwayne Johnson lead the returning cast of all-stars as the global blockbuster franchise built on speed races to its next continent in Fast & Furious 6. Reuniting for their most high-stakes adventure yet, fan favorites Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Sung Kang, Gal Gadot, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges and Elsa Pataky are joined by badass series newcomers Luke Evans and Gina Carano.
Since Dom (Diesel) and Brian’s (Walker) Rio heist toppled a kingpin’s empire and left their crew with $100 million, our heroes have scattered across the globe. But their inability to return home and living forever on the lam have left their lives incomplete.
Meanwhile, Hobbs (Johnson) has been tracking an organization of lethally skilled mercenary drivers across 12 countries, whose mastermind (Evans) is aided by a ruthless second-in-command revealed to be the love Dom thought was dead, Letty (Rodriguez). The only way to stop the criminal outfit is to outmatch them at street level, so Hobbs asks Dom to assemble his elite team in London. Payment? Full pardons for all of them so they can return home and make their families whole again.
Building on the worldwide blockbuster success of Fast Five and taking the action, stunts and narrative to even greater heights, Fast & Furious 6 sees director Justin Lin back behind the camera for the fourth time. He is supported by longtime producers Neal H. Moritz and Vin Diesel, who welcome producer Clayton Townsend back to the series.

While some of the F&F titles have been sketchy, the series overall has been enjoyable and I’ll definitely see this at some point (likely rental). Looks fun, though.
I’m seeing this first weekend. They’re so mindless and stupid, but so much fun, especially the last 2. It’s funny how it looks like from this point foward they’re going the way they are with Tokyo Drift looking to be the last movie chronologically and they give winks to the audience that it’s obviously ignoring it until then.
