Review of Furious 7 (2015) by Jarrad C — 18 Dec 2015

Quite simply is the Fast and Furious franchise, the best, worst movies ever made? I believe they are. The latest instalment Furious 7 is full of unbelievable action, choppy acting and chock full of clichéd dialogue. That's not to say these films don't look great, because they do! These unrealistic action pieces are so beautifully shot and executed much to the credit of James Wan (The Conjuring). Another highlight of the film and franchise as a whole is the diverse cast, making it easily accessible to a wide audience. As much as I wanted to enjoy this film, being Paul Walker's last film, I cannot give it a glowing recommendation. However, this doesn't mean you shouldn't see it, its a great two hours of brainless fun and thrills and the touching montage to Paul Walker at the end is well worth the admission and possible tears. However, if you're looking for realism and a solid story this is not your movie.

2/5.
