"Fast 7" brief review

After watching "Fast 7", I will say a few words (I am a half-brained fan, don't spray if you don't like it). This is the one with the most fight scenes since "Fast 4" (personally I only like the first hand-to-hand fight between Boulder and Jason, I think the other fights are not good enough), I am the one with the more bloody plot, there are several It doesn't make sense in any place, and I also know that watching popcorn movies can't be too serious, maybe my expectations were too high, so I always felt that the plot could and should be better; but considering what the crew encountered, all of this It seems to be excusable - when Paul Walker died, the film was not finished, and the release was postponed for less than a year. During this time, not only did the script need to be changed, but also a lot of time was spent on special effects for his characters. It's not easy to shoot like this. After all, the big scene in this movie is not inferior to the previous one, or even surpassed (I personally like the chase scene in the woods very much, I think it is more enjoyable than killing drones and helicopters at the end of the film).

Of course, if we only talk about the plot and scenes, it is not enough. After all, it was written at the end of the film that this film is dedicated to Paul Walker, who has passed away, so this film also has a very important element: love! Dom and Letty's love (I remember everything about us: you drive, I drive; you fight, I fight; if you die, I'll follow."), O'Connor's love for Mia ("The most in my life. Luckily, I walked into the store and ate the first sandwich you made." "But I made it really bad." "Yeah, but I can still eat several."), Dom and O'Connor's love ("Whether it's a quarter mile drag racing, or halfway around the world - I'm willing to walk with you all the way."). At the end, Lao Fan's true dialogue said, "See you again" at the end of the film. It is these "love" that have been relied on along the way. Therefore, I personally think that this one is the most heart-wrenching part of the entire series at present, if there is any one that can surpass it , I guess I have to wait until the end of the whole series (it is said that Universal is planning to make 10 parts)...

Finally, I will talk about my personal thoughts on the future of this series. Since there are no easter eggs in the seventh part, there is no way to obsess about the plot direction. I can only obsess about the team lineup. From the sixth to the seventh part, Dom's team lost. The four generals (Giselle, Han, O'Connor, Mia), although it seems that they have obtained a new female hacker, they are a bit stretched compared to before; from this part, the easter eggs of the third part are replayed (good It's a pity, I always wanted to see Dom and Shawnby drifting in the Tokyo parking lot, but I didn't make it) It seems that the male protagonist of the third part is expected to return to the series, of course, if I can, I think I can also bring Baowa together Pull in, and set the next one to be "years later" because it's hard for them to be high school students like the third one at this age...

Rest in peace Paul. We will always love you.

    Wen Ziren's director ability is still quite good. I really like the 180-degree rotating lens when everyone falls. If it is good for making horror movies, what action movies are... The ending really moved me to cry. The camera panned slowly and aimed at heaven. This is probably the best farewell.

    "Still thinking about being born to death?" The best one, the car chasing scene in the mountains and forests of Azerbaijan, and the high-rise crossing scene in Abu Dhabi. The last farewell, the last STOP, the last Paul Walker. "How do you say goodbye?"
