Fast and Furious 8 is a dizzying action movie, and it proves that the series is still far from Jiang Langcai. The mood reaches its climax in an unbelievable duel set in the icy wasteland of Russia, and the scene has all the elements to captivate the audience. Most franchises run dry by the eighth installment, but Fast and Furious 8 isn't, and that constant, vibrant creative energy is a testament to its commercial success.
Fast and Furious 8 is far more witty and brisk than its predecessor, thanks in large part to Jason Statham and Dwayne Johnson, whose love-hate relationship is more like this the real heart of the film.
Fast and Furious 8, the eighth installment in the series, remains solid in quality, with plenty of deafening, dazzling speedruns to please the core audience, while also adding some new ingredients to the old recipe.
"Fast and Furious 8" is not short, about three-quarters of the length feels a little procrastinated, and when the missiles and submarines appear at the end, the whole film goes into overdrive again. Fast and Furious 8 isn't my favorite in the series, but the series has always been clear about where it stands and has always been entertaining.
It's no surprise that Fast and Furious 8 is a bland movie. Muscle sticks and Ang Zang Dahan, all kinds of racing cars and self-explanatory lines, everything is so straightforward and easy to understand. It's hard to hate a movie like this, it accomplishes its purpose, and uses every opportunity to ignite a sense of joy in its fans' minds.
