No O'ffense intended, but I saw most of the first movie and haven't made an effort to watch a minute of the other 20 or so F&F movies (estimated).
One was MORE than enough. YMMV ![]() |

I'm not offended...I haven't watched but one of the films as well. Tried to watch another but could not sit through it.
The link is good regardless.

Interesting, I imagine this is similar to a normal executive summary or analysis done at most film studios these days.

I have watched to or three I don't remember. I see them just like the Sharknado or Giant snake movies, I watch em just to see how bad they are and how many ways they can defy the laws of physics and logic.

Last one I saw was 5 and didn't see 4. Wish I could have the time spent back from 5 seriously. I don't even remember a gt3rs so maybe I was wrong, maybe it was 4 that killed for me. Whichever it was had a tank, a shelby that seemed to have wings and the ability to change direction in the air and a chain? Whatever, I felt insulted.
These shows are perfect for 14yolds. I won't even rent these they're so retarded.

Add me to the only saw FF1 club. Too over the top, I like my car chases more like Robin.

Interesting bit of statistics.
Wow, 5, 6 and 7 seem to have high praise from both critics and audience on Rotten tomatos. And #7 is the 6th highest grossing film ever? Wow!

I clicked to find out how many firearms were straw purchases to mexican drug lords and how many politicians were involved. Ooops. Wrong fast and furious.

Strangely, the movies got better as they went along. Much like Corvettes, Heavy Metal, or Guinness Stout.

I guess F & F is Vin Diesel's day job. Does he do anything else? No. It pays the bills. Two more F & F's already signed for. What will they do next? Go into space?
