Fast X Movie Review

Filling the void left by seventies-era Bond movies, when every new 007 film had to have bigger sets, bigger stunts and bigger action, Fast X takes the F&F franchise to new extremes. It’s also inclusive of almost every major cast member from the series’ nine earlier films and leaves a strong feeling of starting a new chapter.

The series has always had a strong connection to the sense of the importance of family and that underlines what is in essence a very simple plot line. But then who drops into their local bijou for a deep and meaningful with this testosterone-charged franchise.

 

 

As far as action is concerned Fast X outdoes almost all that has come before and the set pieces are so over the top that they defy both physics and description. It delivers a level of bombast that will keep the young’s attention and the old’s head shaking in disbelief.

There are many surprises and revelations in store for fans just don’t look here for any clues about those goings-on as that would spoil the fun. Just be set for an action-packed 141 minutes of complete and utter motor madness where laws, any laws are just ignored suggestions. This is the kind of thrill ride best experienced on a giant screen and with a loud sound system.
