Review of Furious 7

Furious 7 (2015)
9/10
For Paul. The family will miss you
15 May 2015
Ever since Paul Walker's untimely death in 2013, this movie has been hailed as his ultimate homage. I'm pleased to write that not only does this movie continue the trend of great F&F movies started by Fast Five, but it also honors the late actor who had been a big part of the franchise for many years.

So we are brought into the movie with a return to race wars, a place we haven't seen since the first one. Dom is attempting to get Letty's memory fully restored and hopes this will be the trigger she needs. This will be one of the movies plot points, But focusing on the main plot, after Owen Shaw was incapacitated in the last movie, his older brother Deckard Shaw (Statham) will look to exact revenge on those hurt his sibling. Also coming into play is a international spy plot involving a highly innovative tracking system that could be dangerous in the hands of mercenaries. The thing right now with the Fast And Furious movies is that you can mix the cars with the most crazy of plots and it works. Scenes like the crew jumping out of a plane in their cars, Toretto driving a car through 3 towers in Abu Dhabi and more are now a part of this wild series of movies. They embrace their silliness and if you're willing to shut down your brain for a moment, you will be in for another exhilarating ride (no pun intended)

Furious 7 also acts as Paul Walker's final film to this world and it couldn't have played out better. Brian O'Connor will now enjoy his family life until we see him again.

Rating: 9,5/10
