Fast X (2023) Movie Thread

Never ceases to amaze me how we got from the first movie, a movie about street racing, heisting electronics, and undercover cops, to what we have now - a bunch of people who can drive well saving the world from nuclear annihilation/rogue nations/bond-like villains, venturing into space, driving between skyscrapers, and whatever else.

Just because they're good at driving cars.

I've seen a not entirely insane suggestion that the Fast franchise has basically morphed into a superhero franchise itself; where the cast are basically invincible super-humans, driving cars is their superpower.

I would say that that is an entirely accurate suggestion

Warning: the trailer gives a lot away...

Looks sillier than usual, if possible, but I'll probably watch it at some point.

This was pure utter nonsense from the start. But the star was Jason Momoa. Probably the best villian in the whole series. He looked like he was having some great fun with the role. It was entertaining at least. Better then the last 2.

Didn't like it, but, yeah, it's pretty much what I expected.
