Fast 5

First, they introduced high octane street racing in The Fast and the Furious, them they incorporate street racing as an undercover in 2 Fast 2 Furious. Next, they brought you to Tokyo to experience a different kind of street racing in Tokyo Drift. The original team of The Fast and the Furious returned for revenge in Fast & Furious. And now, the fifth installment Fast Five brings back the gang from past 4 shows.

The show starts off from Fast & Furious where Brian planned the escape of Dom from a prison transport. To stay off the radar, the brother, sister and boyfriend fled to Rio De Janeiro where they took on a job in retrieving 3 cars from a moving train. During the job, they realized that the cars were seized properties with DEA agents on board. With the stake went higher on them, a team of elites were sent to capture the trio.

Digging up the reason of the stolen car, Brian, Dom and Mia traced the car to the corrupt businessmen in Brazil who has the whole police force under him. The trio planned a heist against him, bringing back a team from all 4 installments of the Fast and Furious franchise.

The action sequences and stunts are by far the best of all 5 F&F movies. There isn't much computerized effects and the jokes are catchy. Bringing in 2 bald brawn (Vin Diesel and The Rock), facing each other with the impact of titans. And lastly, the cars, it's all about the cars in F&F. The beauty of Ford GT40, the soothing Koenigsegg CCXR and the awesomeness of the police car and  the matte black sexiness of Dodge Charger.

Do stay for the post-credit scene, a return of another character of the franchise which probably in the sixth installment.

Ratings: 4
By far the best Fast and Furious movie
