Over the top action, The Rock, J Statham - Hobbs and Shaw
 

If you like over the top, suspension of disbelief, butt kicking movies, I think you'll like this.

If you like to complain about "no body could take a beating like that in real life" or "they could never do that in real life", then maybe you won't.

I have to say, I do think that the Rock has 2 strengths action and comedy which to me, makes him VERY entertaining. Jason Statham is also decent at the whole martial arts, ass-kicking, action movie thing and is fairly entertaining.

I think this movie is going to be a lot of fun. I like how they took it to Hawaii and recruited a Samoan ass kicking fest.

Certainly over the top and it will make Billions!

Vanessa Kirby would have to be one of the sexiest women on the planet... Hubba Hubba ;)

Between those two trailers, i think you've seen the whole movie.

Jason had quite a change in career path.

Looks like a fun movie. I've been an Idris Elba fan since I saw him in Promethius.

These movies are like cartoons or video games. The stunts are just stupid.

Pretty sure this is the prequel to "The Other Guys."

Pretty much. No need to spend $$ on this one now.

He's the best. I'd say that he made "The Wire" and vice versa but it was so full of great actors that he was simply an essential part of it. I've had the pleasure of dining w the producers of the Bond franchise and picking their brains about the next James Bond, he's very high on the list and would be fantastic, IMO. I told them so, FWIWW, (.02). :)

Yeah, not a fan of those over the top impossible 15 minute stuntscenes either.
They live in a world of alternative physics.

I'll save my money and spend it on the new Quentin Tarantino film instead.

From the makers of Fast and Furious...... yeah, you lost me right there.

Once upon a time in Hollywood with Brad Pitt and Leo DiCaprio. I'm not a huge QT fan (a little) but that one does look good too.

Sometimes it's nice to turn your age back to 12 for a couple of hours.

It's funny, because I even tried to stop these responses before they started.

Don't worry, I'll stay off of your lawns. ;)

:D

Always meant to binge through "The Wire." Never seen a single episode. It would still be good now, right?

I don't mind one more Daniel Craig Bond movie one bit. I'd be all for Idris in the role- can't think of anyone else I'd rather see doing it.

reminded me of this which is hilarious!

If you raised your kids right, at 12 years old they are laughing at F&F movies.

Mine did.

I went to the the first F&F movie opening weekend, I went with a bunch of car friends, we all left embarrassed we witnessed that crap show.

We never saw another one since.

Especially since it ruined the street car scene in a matter of moments.


This was cool, that movie ruined it forever.

^I disagree. The first one is the best, 2F2F and Tokyo drift are tied for the worst. The rest fall somewhere in between.

They're fun to watch, feature cool cars and characters that are a soft parody of what they might be like in real life.

Those flicks seem similar to cartoons. I like cartoons, but they can't be stupid. Some of those movies were amusing, I think they always make money.

I like how the graphic for the Official Trailer makes Statham look somewhat the same size as the Rock. It ain't even close in real life.

I laughed about this seeing promos for Stranger Things with David Harbour and Winona Ryder - he's literally a foot taller than her.

I tend to like Statham and Johnson but I think I'll skip this - the trailers really do show pretty much everything.
