Let's make some money....

Warning: Spoilers
When Dominic Toretto is informed that Letty was assassinated, he returns to Los Angeles to find her killer.

His former friend and FBI agent Brian Conner is assigned to capture mysterious drug lord Braga that is looking for replacement drivers, working undercover as his courier, driving from Mexico to USA through the desert.

Dominic discovers that Letty was working as a courier for Braga when she was killed and he decides to join his gang to find the killer......

After the awful third movie, and the waning careers of the two leads, it was inevitable that this was eventually going to happen, and even though its lots and lots of fun, its bonkers beyond belief.

Films like this are critic proof, they are all about fast cars, explosions, hot women and cool locations. Pretty much like a Michael Bay movie, but with taste.

Diesel and Walker are not the best actors around, but their chemistry is undeniable, and they make a great pair.

As with all sequels, they try to be bigger and better than the last one, and here it succeeds, because Lin knows these movies are ridiculous, so makes every set piece ridiculous also.

So all in all, its a fine movie, totally off its rockers, but it knows it, and embraces it.
