Review of Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019) by Thegldt — 07 Aug 2019

The final act of this movie (set in Ukraine) is not the final act. There’s a fourth act that takes place in Samoa. And on that island, they do the final battle using spears, and then another final battle versus a helicopter, and finally one more final battle using fists during a dramatic storm.

‪In summary — like the Fast & Furious franchise — this movie does NOT know when to end.‬.

‪While it has funny and surprising cameos, decent fight choreography and chase sequences, the movie also has a ridiculous transforming bike, un-killable characters, and the blandest zero-stakes end-of-the-world sci-fi plot you can imagine. As a whole, Hobbs & Shaw is a movie that does not deserve its excruciating 2:20 runtime... and your money.
