Dominic and his family against Joker
The audience has long been divided into two camps. Some are very fond of “Fast and Furious” and look forward to its continuation, while others on the contrary do not tolerate it, but at the same time go to the movies and bring producers money. This is evidenced by both the number of ratings on sites and box office fees. And we waited for the tenth part, which is even more gaining its acceleration.
The prologue of the film refers to the fifth part, when Dominic and Brian got into a fight with the criminal Reyes, who decided to bribe the authorities of Brazil and in general was a very dangerous man. But Reyes did not survive this confrontation in the end, but his son Dante survived all these years dreaming of revenge on Dominica for his family.
The main plot takes place in our time, when Dominic actually retired and lives with his son Brian and wife Letty in a well-known house. But their idylls are suddenly interrupted when it becomes known that someone cunningly manipulates Toretto's friends and skillfully frames them. Going to the rescue, Dominic realizes that his enemy is the same Dante and mercy from him should not be expected.
This time the film was directed by Louis Letterrier, but I’ll be honest, it does not play a special role. The main thing here is how Vin Diesel sees the film. He's a producer and creative coordinator. And although Diesel promised us a return to the origins, "Fast and Furious 10" does not even think to do it, since the laws of logic and physics are completely absent here.
The film has a lot of chases in different cities. We could be in Italy and then Brazil and even the North Pole. There are no boundaries to the plot and this is the beauty of the film, as it does not even try to be realistic, but entertains us to the full program and it personally even pleased me.
Jason Momoa, who played Dante, is very cool in this film. He's actually stealing the movie. He certainly doesn't deserve sympathy, but if you really hate the villain. Everything was done right in the end.
Fast and Furious 10 is a good movie that doesn’t make any logical friends, but we don’t demand anything like that. So we strap in and go on another crazy ride.
After watching the tenth part of this story, I realized two things. The first is that between viewing parts of the afterburner, you need to take big breaks so that it does not have time to get tired of its absurdity and thrashing. Just that, apparently, I happened to the ninth part, which in the absurdity of this film is not inferior, but I did not like it, because after watching the eighth was not so much time. And the second – the afterburner finally and deliberately, even with special self-irony, turned into a series. I’m not talking about the number of movies. I'm talking about the meaning of this story. There were already lost brothers, there were villains who returned from the afterlife, and vice versa, there were quarrels between friends, there were finally enemies who later became friends. All this resembles a kind of “Santa Barbara”, in which the plot is sucked out of the finger, just to extend the story for more episodes.
The tenth part is a continuation of the attraction of the absurd, to which we are so used in this story. Again, the creators of the afterburner frankly spit on any laws of physics, and on any laws in general. But this time, I wasn't particularly annoyed. I've probably even missed this crazy thing where machines can do everything. Furious has long departed from the original idea of street racing, but I can say that in this film, old street racing, we will be a little pleased.
In the rest, we will again see superfighters who fight in such a way that all the special forces of the world do not interfere with them, super racers who can not be stopped by almost no one except the same super racers. But, it is worth noting that the shooting turned out very good: fights, shooting, chases and explosions – all this is really well done and pleases the eye. I liked the antagonist, played by Jason Momoa – it turned out a very memorable, bright and charismatic character. What can you say about the role of Charlize Theron in this part? It seemed to me a little bit here and, frankly, it upset me.
What in this film has long ceased to cause even sarcastic laughter, is pathetic speeches about family, about friendship and faith in a dream. This looks absolutely absurd and frankly stupid. And even if this is another self-irony, then in my opinion it was too much.
Well, we are obviously waiting for the continuation of this epic. And there, apparently, the serial component will continue to go off scale - there will be some cousin of the main character, who has long been considered missing, and she is generally a super-main villain, who from the very first parts takes revenge on the main character for not coming to her graduation. Or something like that. Well, from the point of view of action, then I am waiting for something openly Indian. It is time for our heroes to learn how to shoot through the blade of a knife, so that one bullet, flying into two parts, hits two targets.
Within a few years, Vin Diesel’s Fast and Furious franchise became one of the most profitable film series in Hollywood, and until then, no one could believe that this story would ever end. However, Diesel himself has exchanged for the sixth decade and it becomes more difficult for him to show himself as a cool hero on the screen, and therefore he announced that Furious 10 will be the penultimate part of the main franchise.
The film takes place a few years after Dominic Toretto was finally able to reconcile with his formidable brother, after which he continued to live a quiet life in his small house. However, at one unexpected moment, Cipher visited him, the same villain who once killed Elena, the mother of Dominic’s son. She claims that Toretto and his loved ones are followed by a real Devil and it will be very difficult to stop him.
So the new opponent of Dominic becomes Dante Reyes, the son of Hernan Reyes, whom Toretto's friends eliminated during a mission in Rio de Janeiro. Now Dante has big mental problems and is eager to punish Toretto in the most brutal way. He wants to cause him special pain, and therefore a variety of techniques are used. So now even Dominic’s son is in danger of dying, which means that the whole family needs to unite to stop the crazy psychopath and prevent him from doing what he wants.
In truth, the plot of this film can not be called completely original, because in “Fast and Furious” there have been villains who constantly want to harm Toretto and his team. However, this time the highlight is that the villain is played by Jason Momoa, who created just a unique image within the stagnant racing franchise.
Dante Reyes easily captures all the attention of the audience. He looks strange and eccentric and behaves the same way. He may play with corpses in children’s games, and then crumble in compliments to his enemies, and later release a bullet into them. So this film is worth watching first of all because of the game of Momoa, which even though it looks like a solderer, but unlike the ever-stone Diesel, he really tries to play.
As for the races themselves in their classic street style, the authors did not try to convince us otherwise, but there are few of them and one of them did not reach its spectacular final. “Fast and Furious” continues to be a story with a large scale and spy games, but it is not going to return to its origins.
Fast and Furious 10 would have been a pretty passable part of the franchise had it not been for the mad villain Dante Reyes, played by Jason Momoa. In many ways, he and only he drew this film and want to see what will happen in this story, because for some centuries there were intriguing prospects.
Having changed the director to Louis Terrier, all of whose films I happen to have seen, the Fast and Furious franchise did not change the vector of development (or stagnation, call it what you want). Still, for the most part, rules in the script Vin, so we have what we have.
Yes, it is still the same genre movie in the framework of a spy action movie with intrigue, investigations, chases and shootouts, but everything really began to slide into the Brazilian series. If in the previous part the stakes were raised before the flight into space, then the tenth iteration hit the ceiling and just rolls a bomb across Rome. Everything is just as rhythmic, exciting and exciting. Well shot and clipped. I like that the intensity of passions does not fade from part to part, the film does not go into pseudo-intellectual kitsch, but just entertains and offers to turn off the head for two and a half hours. Physics is out of the chat room, of course. This is definitely an anti-scientific movie, but it’s so funny that it’s like dipping headlong into the movies of the 80s and 90s with their masculinity and credo “brother for brother, it’s taken as a basis.” There is nothing more important than family. It seems like a meme, but it seems to be true.
Acting work has not changed: all the same lineup that you tire of listing, but this time Momoa appeared in the framework of the antagonist. Plays farcical and funny. So to speak, "in colour."
Fast and Furious 10 does not put an end to the story, but only ends on the note “should be continued”. The post-credits scene is attached. We are waiting for the final (?) series of this whole mess to find out whether revenge will be committed, whether the family will be reunited, whether the government will calm down in relation to the Toretto hearth. In the dry balance, this is a fun, easy, spectacular and technically verified movie. All fans of colorful fighters with chases on beautiful cars are recommended to familiarize themselves. Personally, this “gets me”: it’s like every year playing a new “Call Of Duty”, you watch another part of “Fast & Furious” every two years, reclining on the back of the sofa and getting high with boozy-bags, roaring engines and beautiful field shootings in different parts of the world.
7 out of 10
How many times in the movies about the last race, but each time it is further and further. This franchise was worth finishing on the fifth or seventh part, where Diesel and his company blew up theaters, collected a huge box office and missed Paul Walker. But the thirst for money still takes up and the producers squeeze all the latest juices from the series.
In the same part, there are many turning points that should surprise and arouse interest in the film, but the acting of the main bald pitcher, the script, the violation of elementary laws of physics successfully discourage the desire to continue watching the adventures of the gasoline team. Everything looks so ridiculous on the screen that you involuntarily want to cover your face with your hand, so as not to once again catch kringe from what is happening.
The film does not save even combat and racing scenes, which are filled with a ton of graphics, which greatly spoils the impression of viewing.
The only thing that's good about every movie in the franchise is the soundtrack. All the tracks that you hear while watching what “masterpiece” will definitely plant in your subcortex.
Nothing good can be expected from Furious. It remains only to remove the crossover with “Transformers” or “Jurassic World” and then you can finally complete the series. It won't be better.
High-octane series "Fast and Furious" with us for more than two decades. On the one hand, this is an excellent achievement – films continue to come out, collect the box office, once every couple of years releasing a seemingly tolerable picture. But on the other hand, the quality of projects with each new part of the franchise has to talk more negatively. For myself, I have long drawn conclusions in terms of films about Dominic Toretto and his family. And the conclusions are rather negative. The new part of “Fast and Furious” is coming to the screens? Okay. This means that you can schedule 2-2.5 hours for such a story, where there will be a lot of beautiful action scenes, among which there will be one like which has not yet been in the series, and you will definitely have to see a new almost invulnerable villain, someone from the previously deceased must come to life and so on. Yes, according to these signs, which voiced above, you can immediately guess in the quiz that we are talking about “Fast and Furious”. For which part, choose any of the last. Sad and sad.
The tenth series gathers under its banners the already familiar team of heroes, who are still played by older actors. It seems that they are tired of doing on the screen what still looked good when they were 35-40 years old. There is clearly a build-up of fatigue. Jokes Tyrese Gibson is not so funny, new sophisticated devices Ludacris little impressed, and the heroine Natalie Emmanuel (her early record in the “old men” of course) managed to lose her charisma, which was so clearly noticeable in previous films and made the creator of “Eyes of God” one of the notable figures of the franchise. The heroes of Vin Diesel, Jordana Brewster and Michelle Rodriguez are still not bad, but they have very little empathy. I'm tired of it. Maybe it’s because of the series fatigue? Not really. It is a matter of frank copying of themselves and a weak script. It's understandable. Furious 10 has nothing to offer.
Perhaps that is why the picture refers to the fifth part of the franchise, which has already passed in 10 years. The film draws inspiration from there, or rather, takes an antagonist from that story. It turns out that even then the company of the House managed to strongly annoy the hero Jason Momoa, who returned many years later to take revenge. And his revenge will be cruel. Momoa doesn't look like a brutal villain. Yes, he is dangerous, yes, arranges horrors for the characters, but the character turned out to be contradictory and indistinct. I remember a few funny moments with him, but nothing more. And the thoughtfulness of the villain’s moves for some reason seems to be the thoughtfulness of the plot moves of the scriptwriters. And you don't believe those moves. Like Momoa himself.
The action scenes in the film are as high as ever. But without an interesting original story, they look weak. But that's what happened with the Furious. You have to be aware. The film of the series is nothing more than entertainment for a couple of hours, when you can just enjoy good tricks and pathetic speeches of the heroes and their no less pathetic looks at each other.
The Furious is a dying series. It's a shame to admit it, but the films that come out after each other keep getting worse. These are films for entertainment and nothing more. Previously, paintings were hooked with interesting plots, bright heroes. The creators cannot do this now.
Every time the Fast and Furious comes out, there is always a hat against the film, but it continues to be watched. I have a lot of sympathy for the franchise, as I have long accepted the fact that Fast and Furious is stability, everything is stable from film to film. Normally I don’t set any high expectations, but just enjoy the effects, the shooting, the humor and the atmosphere. Just turn off the brain and rejoice as a child, was no exception and the 10th film.
This time, Dominic Torretto and his family are confronted by a very charismatic Dante with his inimitable style and his humor. The film again has quite a variety of locations from Rome to Antarctica. It was very interesting to watch all the movements of the main characters and get high from the effects that the film is filled with. But I liked Rome the most. I liked the picture and the great view.
This time, the family is not given as much time as they wanted. But at the beginning it was very emotional. Well, I would also like to mention the talk at Home about fatherhood, and how important it is to give the best to the younger generation. Very important words that come to the fore, and then all the battles and effects. That was not enough.
Vin Diesel. Dominic is still very good and has a lot to fight for. I loved his confrontation with Dante. But if for the first the main honor and respect, then the second typical major whose fault is others, not him. It was interesting to watch the confrontation of two completely different characters.
Jason Momoa. John Cena. If in the previous part Jacob was essentially the main antagonist, then in this part he changes a lot and there is no trace of that image. Here he is also cheerful and energetic. I really liked his attitude towards his nephew B. Especially when they listened to the tapes in the car was very funny.
Jason Statham. Deckard Shaw unfortunately didn't get as much screen time as I'd like. But their meeting with Khan is memorable.
Tyrese Gibson. Roman Pierce has not cheated on himself. Fun again all the time. This time he decided to take on the role of leader, and it looked both funny and funny.
And of course, I got really excited about the post-credits scene. I knew her, but that didn’t make her any less cool. I was really looking forward to seeing this character.
Furious 10 is definitely not the final race. Will he? Honestly, I am so used to the fact that the Furious continues to come out and enjoy its stability. The absence of the laws of physics, where action, drive and atmosphere remain unchanged for many years. Some people say as much as they can. But I'm quite amusing to watch. The film lifts the mood, cheers, immerses in the familiar atmosphere of lightness, freedom and constant high. I don’t want to say goodbye to the familiar atmosphere. I won’t say that it was really cool, but I didn’t see anything terrible. As always. Break by break.
It used to be a joke, just like going into space (it was in Part 9), but now we’re heading into the finish line. The last race – it is the last from the 5th part every time, but something will not reach. The Hollywood fashion story of the 2010s was divided into two films. Well, a lot of heroes, a lot of action, unexpected ghosts of the past – in one word, “self-repeats”. Everyone is used to the fact that we have Mission Impossible from the Toretto family, so another adventure and the threat of the family send Dominic to save everyone.
The authors no longer know what to do. The film connects the events with the 5th film (not for nothing mentioned it) to bring to light a new antagonist in the person of Jason Momoa, and it is ... terrible. Of the brutal Khal Drogo a.k. and Aquaman made a clown who shows off in every shot. Flashbacks gave us shots from 2011, to already in 2023 to imagine how it really was.
Again a threat, again ignoring the fact that the villains of previous films become colleagues. So it was with Dwayne Johnson (although he is a former cop, Furious 5), with Jason Statham (Furious 7), with Charlize Theron (Furious 8), with John Cena (Furious 9), that is, another villain appears, and the previous ones turn out to be assistants to a more powerful opponent. John Cena is his brother Toretto, only he has not been called to a barbecue since 2001.
Now director Louis Leterrier is making ends meet, sending viewers back to the past all the time, so that in 10 parts we understand who is who. Momoa's power is unclear, just a man with connections, with money, who can buy everyone and destroy everyone. For a skirmish with our heroes, cunning tricks are used to show a beautiful action in Rome: graphics, fiction, but ... for this I continue to watch the franchise ... beautifully, dynamically.
The tape mocks the entire franchise as a whole, showing that the characters solve all problems with the help of wheelbarrows. In the picture there are many faces, both past and replenished casts: Brie Larson, Daniela Melshior, Alan Richson. The plot again divides the Toretto family to show both the fight against Momoa and the threat to everyone who is dear to Diesel. Constant shootings and chases try to distract attention from stupidities and mistakes. A special government agency with a lot of people who, even knowing the exact location of the heroes, do stupid things. Deceptions, tricks, constant salvation in the most unexpected moment. It seems that the heroes have nowhere to go, but they still find a way.
According to the manufacturability of the "Chervonets" collects lotions of 7 films, and the technology of 8 films, and a secret base in Antarctica. Looks like they've stuffed everything. In addition, the picture never once focuses on the chronicle: not only flashbacks, but also photos, memories. Even nostalgic smelled after the pictures of “Double afterburner”. The enemy is dangerous because he knows all the weaknesses of Dominic, knows the whereabouts of all the heroes, possesses weapons that can destroy everyone. Yes, even during the race Momoa use his ego villain. If it were not for his clown outfit, there would be a powerful opponent.
Remember Khan's return to Part 9? Final 10 again wants to bring together all the characters involved in the franchise. Thus, loop and events, and make 11 films the most, the most, the most... Yeah, not without Paul Walker, of course. Plot 10 only rocks, sets the drama and works only for salvation. Then there must be a collection and a retaliation. In the main story, you do not feel that the heroes have any obstacles. Everyone solves their problems. Ludacris and Tyrese Gibson are once again in charge of humor, and this time Son Gang joins them to justify his presence. But to the delight of fans, I will add that in the next film, the character of Khan will have a reason to smile.
Again, how can the script play out already known events? Showing familiar footage, focus on who's in the shadows, and here's the new villain. Where were the Avengers (not Marvel) before? Three movies later just decided to go out? Naturally, they gained strength, power, power. To fight Toretto requires preparation. This is how the selection of villains works in this series. Jason Statham in “chervonets” glimpsed the plot and went on his own mission. Even Pete Davidson brightened up the viewing. It’s funny that actor Alan Richson played Aquaman in Smallville, and here he and Jason Momoa interact.
In the end, nothing new. Life is on the verge again, we need to save the family. The question to Toretto is, why don't you stop the villains when they come to you? We need a pathetic dialogue about the family, about honor, about the motivation of the villains, and the fact that these same interlocutors will try to destroy you with all their might, no one takes into account. And of course, the picture eliminates the significance and drama of the past parts. The strongest and most dangerous was Statham? He's helping us. Charlize Theron heartlessly destroyed everything and eliminated an important character? She's visiting Toretto now. That's it. . .
Well, we are waiting for the final, which due to the strikes in Hollywood moved as early as 2025. Although there are usually 2 years between the adventures of Toretto, we have an unfinished story. The story of how Vin Diesel will stop Jason Momoa, we will see in 2 years.
P.S. The post-credits scene may delight fans.
Expensive, cheerful, but very stupid action movie. Even the characters themselves joke about violating the laws of physics. The logic of action is meaningless. It's just crazy pathos, super-cool racing cars and a lot of violence. And yes, it has long been not just chasers, but rather an action movie with racers.
Plot. Toretto with Rodriguez and his grown-up and blackened son rest from murder and destruction. His team is sluggishly trying to do something. But here on the horizon of chaos looms a former enemy - Charlize Theron, who seems to be no longer even an enemy. The real enemy is the son of an Italian mobster killed by Diesel and Rock, played by Momoa. The character of Momoa turned out strange. It's kind of a Joker on minimalism. Momoa wants revenge on everyone and kill more innocent people. And so to be a great battle, of course, including cars. For the sonula, by the way, looks after John Cena, naturally in the sample of the new Schwartz - Peacemaker.
Everything is bright, choppy, stupid and with a bunch of famous laxhers like Statham, Ludacris, Cardi B, Emmanuel, Rucker, Russell, etc.
You can’t see this, you know, with condemnation. Relax and have fun, even if you don’t like it.
Family is the main thing - a review of the Furious 10!
Went with my husband to the 10th part of the Furious! 10! This number seems to be some huge, and most importantly do not think that the first Furious came out in 2001. The first three films were lamp and cool – saturated with the atmosphere of streets, illegal races, a mixture of drive and cool tuning cars. As an avid gamer, I even remember how the early Fast and Furious echoed their favorite racing series, Need for Speed.
And here in the yard of 2023 and the 10th part of the saga comes out, and from the former bulbousness in it there were only rare shots of one street race for 2 minutes and beautiful girls who dance to music before the start of the race. What’s the meaning of the poster now?
It is very sad that in which the Furious in a row forget to have a normal and adequate soundtrack. With a good sound, the whole bacchanalia on the screen would look fun. The plot is pretty predictable. Dominic Toretto and numerous family members live happily and amicably, engaged in petty robbery, but completely sanctioned by the secret organization “Agency”, until the insidious villain appears in the person of the son of the murdered drug lord – Dante. The villain is filled with a desire for revenge, and a desire to kill Dominic and all family members. Supostat spares no money and effort on attempts to destroy the family on wheels, simultaneously pulling on his side the former allies of Dominic. Here, of course, and begins the action, which is a modern Furious - explosions, chases, grinding fights, life instructions with a stone face, crowds of enemies of all kinds and forms, the lack of laws of physics, and few machines. By 10, you don’t know where and where. Family members who die in one movie are resurrected in the next, returning by magic. The number of characters is growing, and no matter how famous the actors who play them are, it is still forgotten who this character is and what he actually did in the films. Therefore, the plot in modern Fast and Furious can be said not. The film about his Majesty is action.
Actors and heroes: Vin Diesel and his Toretto have aged, and wrinkles become noticeable even through the actor’s makeup. His character still rushes from the desire to live on the drive, and unwillingness to lose family or harm loved ones. Letty also looks like a character who gets less and less screen time. It seems that nothing more interesting than the loss of memory with Letty will not happen. Former villains - Hobb, Shaw and Cipher after all the vicissitudes become part of the family, and are a little lost, squandering the former charm of villainy. The trio of Ramon, Teja and Ramsey look funny, watching them is still fun and fun. To the trinity we add the eternally young, brutal, and silent Japanese Khan, a character lost against the background of the rest. New characters in the face of the daughter of Mr. Nobody, and sister Elena surprisingly organically fit into the film, but remain undisclosed, apparently leaving a reserve for the next films. Dominic's brother Jacob is also well revealed. The villain in the last movie, and the caring uncle in this one. Who really surprises and brings to the Furious novelty and acting is Jason Momoa, who played Dante. His character strongly resembles the mixture of the Joker from the genius Heath Ledger and Jack Sparrow from the equally brilliant Johnny Depp. As you know, madness and evil are well combined. In short, Momoa’s character has a huge respect without him, the film would not have turned out so drive!
Bottom line: overall, 10 Fast and Furious is little different from the previous parts, and tells the same things, but maybe it’s not bad. Vin Diesel directs and produces Fast and Furious for a long time, and the effort is clearly paying off. The Fast and Furious go to the movies and the movies collect the box office, so we are waiting for at least two more films in the main saga, and there to fillers and spin-offs are not far away.
Good morning, dear users! It has already been 2 days since watching this “masterpiece” of the film industry, and emotions do not subside, so I still decided on the first review in my life.
So, having reached the long-awaited weekend, I opened the folder “I will watch” with awe, anticipating a good mood. My choice, with a slight touch of nostalgia, fell on a poster with a bald man from Brazz...khmm...family. How you can mock the audience like that, one can only guess. In three points I will try to justify my opinion.
1. Who's Hancock??????
Guys, come on. White father, white mother, black son! What kind of family is that? Swedish? Or is Domenic really bald, you know how? This fact is even difficult to comment on. Has the BLM movement taken over Hollywood? What happens next, guys? The Black Mermaid?
2. "Boy" citation.
The creator of the dialogue in this film is clearly registered in the Russian social network VK. Otherwise, why these loud expressions: “nothing is impossible, the main thing is to believe”, “if you look in the rearview mirror all the time, you will miss eternity”. The level of pathos of these dialogues is comparable to the thoughts of an eleventh-grader from 2009.
3. Avengers. Collapse.
Soon Marvel directors will nervously smoke away from these superhero scenes of Fast and Furious. Or maybe there was a failure in the multiverse and Groot moved into Dominica, and his whole family turned into Guardians of the Galaxy? They will probably kill Thanos in the next part.
In general, the conclusion is this: for me, the standard of dog excrement in the movie is a film about Russian avengers - "Defenders", well, remember where there is still a man-bear. And if you compare this masterpiece with the Furious, I will say the following: "Defenders are better!"
Fast and Furious 10: Aquaman takes revenge on a bald man for the past
So came everyone’s favorite family film about our favorite bald pitcher, Dominic Toretto, in which the family is subjected to new adventures.
Finally, having interrupted everyone possible and inviting such authorities as Hobs and the Shaw brothers to the family, there are no worthy rivals on planet Earth for the bald racer, but Vin Drosel is invented by a new villain, literally sucked out of his finger.
This time we are thrown about a certain bandit, with footage from the 5th part of the afterburner from the trailer, who has a tooth on Dominic, as the latter, according to the aquaman, took away his future and family. Stylish gangster even chased Dominic in a car and fell into the water in part 5, almost dying, which of course was not in the original part of the film.
Who cares at all about logic and blunders, if the bald wants to continue and with the same success in the next parts we will resurrect Brian or Elena, we showed in the previous part of Khan, so this will not surprise us. But our avenger not only hit his head so badly and a blackout in the water had a detrimental effect on the mental abilities of the aquaman, when instead of just throwing the whole family of a solarium at gatherings at their house, where Dominic does not hide at all, because they always hang out in their house, the address of which only the lazy do not know, our genius chose to patiently wait for his hour for the vendetta, planning every step to begin his insidious plan. And then begins the action with wheelbarrows, kind, we all know ...
In general, the film as always fantastic, physics canceled, common sense, too. The only thing that pleases is the special effects. Probably, afterburner films starting from 4-5 parts should be watched, turning off the brain, because to explain all the blunders and miracles is unrealistic, because as Dom said: “In such things you only need to believe.” So we have to trust that the family of Dom will be all right.
Until recently, we were promised to split Fast and Furious 10 into two films, and finish the whole story, which began more than twenty years ago. But apparently, the box office of new parts in the series simply does not allow the studio bosses to send Dominic Toretto and his family on a well-deserved vacation. That’s why they decided to stretch the saga for several more films, and there, who knows it, they can add another five. Although the cast is not getting younger, and in “Fast and Furious 10” it is noticeable that the same Diesel is increasingly difficult to maintain the physical shape of his hero. Although Diesel himself clearly does not mind starring in new parts of the series, because in addition to films about the same Riddick at the moment, he does not have any more iconic franchises. And given the very bad nature of Diesel himself, many eminent directors and actors are unlikely to want to work with him. They will be able to do whatever they can.
Peace is the motto of the Toretto family. Another gathering for a barbecue breaks down, another appearance of hacker Cipher. And it does not appear at all to plot our heroes again. Cipher asks for help, because someone has appeared more dangerous than herself. This man is called Dante Reyes, and he is not another opponent who wants world domination, everything is much more complicated, because Dante is a real psychopath who is obsessed not with money and power, but with the desire to completely destroy the entire Toretto family. At the same time, Dante wants to do this slowly and torture Toretto himself before finally getting rid of him.
The franchise was extremely difficult to take seriously after the fourth or fifth films, as it’s just some kind of parade of strange personalities that featured in previous films, but most of these people you don’t remember. What the hell were they doing then, what the hell are they doing now, and so on. Still can not get rid of Brian, apparently keeping the memory of the untimely deceased Paul Walker, and that's why Brian we have that movie somewhere in a row "hiding", and his wife - Mia, quite calmly involved in all the troubles. The heroes of Ludacris, Tyrese Gibson and Natalie Emmanuel are generally inseparable, they are the generators of a kind of humor in the franchise, though very flat and dull. Therefore, they behave like real idiots and even manage to conflict with each other. In the tenth part, the resurrected character Son Gan was also attributed to them. The creators just don’t know what to do with them. In general, the film breaks down from the number of heroes so much that the same Statham was allocated from the power of 8 minutes of screen time. It appears only closer to the end and almost does not affect the plot. True, it seems that already with this film began to get rid of so many characters, but given the finale, they also did not stop adding old ones. So I wouldn’t be surprised that all those who died here will be resurrected through the film.
The plot is lame on both legs, as in many other parts of the series, but Jason Momoa at least turned out a really useful antagonist, really one of the best in the whole series. He is an extremely charismatic psychopath, which is just interesting to watch. All the scenes and dialogues with him were done in general well within the framework of the same “Fast and Furious”. And in general, you already perceive each new part as a kind of circus on wheels, which the franchise has long been. The casual viewer here definitely has nothing to do, and those who are thinking of returning after a long break in viewing the franchise, so much more. It will end only after the “Fast and Furious” will cease to collect at least some sane box office in cinemas, otherwise we will one day wait for the film series about the nursing home, where the old, but still capable of something Dominic Toretto will make his final race in a wheelchair.
5 out of 10
The weakest part of all!! The Fast and Furious franchise I review constantly, but this, at most once. The problem of aging actors, a sense of nostalgia and snotty diologists who are only interesting to them!!! It's whining about what used to be better. You can’t look at aging actors without pity, it’s a movie, everything should be perfect here. The music of G. you will forget, in seconds, unlike the previous parts, which are forever in the playlist. Disgusting Antagonist, clown... It's an afterburner, weaker and weaker. I wouldn’t be surprised if, after the 11th part, they don’t calm down and play the main roles of parents who make up 90% of the film!!! Finish the franchise with a scene with Paul Walker in Part 7. It would be the most beautiful ending!! Plus. The short-range scenes in the cars are amazing. From action, for the film two scenes. In Rome and on the dam!!!
The scenario of the new “Fast and Furious” is predictably unrealistic and, perhaps, somewhat overloaded – uncritically, but in some places the narrative still “slags”. I will lower two points for this, so as not to return to the laws of physics, etc. whining from professional film critics. It seems that everyone is watching one franchise – the tenth part of it, where the genre changed to “attraction” in the fourth. It is strange to write about it every time as if the previous one was a school textbook in physics, and now, suddenly, has turned into unscientific fiction.
To be fair, by the ninth part, I had complaints, but of a different nature – I didn’t like the fact that the franchise flew into space from criminal streets. Louis Leterrier retained the overall style, but returned the narrative to the streets of all corners of the world, starting with an incredibly spectacular and spectacular half-hour Roman scene, where the dynamics do not let go of attention to the last frame, and half an hour fly by like one minute. There will be no more such chic scenes in the future, but the overall style of the narrative resembles the fifth part – one of my favorites.
Actually, the plot is the fifth part and continues, although it takes into account the events of all subsequent ones, i.e. before us a kind of “soft reboot”, as with “Suicide Squad” in the DC Cinematic Universe. Jason Momoa is a hell of a cross between Christopher Nolan’s Joker and Far Cry 3’s Vaas, he copes with the role of an opponent of the entire Toretto Family, far surpassing all previous antagonists, including my favorite Charlize Theron.
Among the other newcomers, Alan Richson is very good, for the second time in a row (after Jack Reacher) pleasantly surprises me. There were two sexy actresses at once: Brie Larson and Daniela Melshior – both perfectly fit into the narrative and overall aesthetic of the franchise, not that John Cena still annoys me. In the final scenes (one of them, according to tradition, during the credits) will also return a few familiar characters, which I personally confess I missed. In general, the impression is excellent, I strongly recommend to view even non-fans of the series.
8 out of 10
Massive! Spectacular! Drive! I wonder, the writers themselves are not tired of such endless racing stories, where each subsequent must amaze the viewer more and more? Even the death of lead actor Paul Walker doesn't stop this endless assembly line. In addition, there must be 11 series (well, or "Furious X2", which is more convenient). What, what, and in the absence of imagination and the desire to earn as much money as possible on a successful franchise, which turns out in 2023 for more than 22 years, the riveters (oh, sorry) the creators of the film can not refuse. We are waiting for the next part of the endless series.
According to the greatest and most terrible Vin Diesel, The Fast and Furious is about to end. The final line, where there is no place for some nonsense like common sense or a sane scenario. All you need is a pedal to the floor and another hundreds of millions of fees, on which you can remove quite, for sure, exactly the last part. Let’s pretend that we believe that after the final race Toretto and his large family will not announce a pack of spin-offs like Hobbs and Shaw. Come on, it's all lyrics. And the tenth “Fast and Furious” has already died out in cinemas, once again cementing its status as the most crazy, bright and ridiculously pathetic action movie, in which only one law works – the laws of coolness.
Once again, Dominica, who has retired, overtakes his past. Once again, Toretto gathers his family to fight back against the past. And that, in principle, is the whole story. Did someone expect something else? But of course, not for the sake of the story from year to year, we win the Furious, but for the sake of action, drive and uncompromising. But before I move on, I’ll say one more thing.
The ninth film of the series seemed to me quite faded and drawn out. I didn’t want to scold him because the standard program of the franchise was worked out, but it was the first Fast and Furious in a long time that I missed. Therefore, I went to the top ten with a slight apprehension, which, fortunately, was not confirmed. The new “Fast and Furious” keeps the perfect pace of the narrative, and the whole picture sweeps through literally in one breath.
Now for action. A huge number of coolly staged scenes is, in short. The action is actually full, which is not surprising in general, but according to the sensations even in comparison with the rest of the films in the series, here the dynamics are just some exorbitant amount. At the same time, the scenes delight with the variety of locations and characters involved. You want to race? Choose classic street races, races in Rome with the participation of a huge bomb, races on the highway with rockets, helicopters and other charms. Fights? Oh, please, there's Statham, here's John Cena breaking through the floor, and here's Jordan Brewster wetting SWATs in a cozy home environment. It's beautiful, and that's all.
Speaking of characters. Heroes in the "ten" just a lot, and not only old familiar, but also new faces. The already sung team of Toretto was joined by Brie Larson, Alan Richson, Daniela Melshior, and the main star of the picture - Jason Momoa in the role of the main antagonist. And how damn good he is. The brightest, most insane and at the same time dangerous villain of the saga. Just bravo.
All in all, Furious 10 is great. This is the perfect summer attraction that entertains the viewer 200%. I look forward to the end of the great family saga.
Laws of Physics and Logic — To hell with, but picture — interesting.
Honestly, I’m looking at new franchises by inertia. After the fifth part, the plot, logic and meaning are harder to find. In fact, with the events of the fifth part and begins the tenth.
As it turned out, the antagonist of the fifth part - Reyes - had a son Dante Reyes, who even participated in the final chase, miraculously survived in the "mix" and held a grudge against Dominic.
He decided to take revenge “with feeling, sense, arrangement”:
1. Discredit the team of Dominic – blame them on the terrorist attack in Rome
2. Stealing them,
3. Kill the whole team of Dominic, preferably in front of his eyes.
4. His family, especially his son, will be killed.
In the end, we (spoiler) are stretched into two films.
Pros:
1. The most important plus is loyalty to the spirit of the previous series of the franchise. That is, those who enjoyed watching the series from 6 to 9, most likely will not be disappointed.
2. The picture is at the level.
3. Humor is still there.
4. Charisma Jason Momoa (although in some moments “overdone”).
Cons (which, most of all, cut the eyes):
1. Screenplay:
1.1 Attempt to cram into the storyline absolutely all the characters of the previous parts failed! Many characters, probably even most, appear very briefly, crumpled and also disappear. I don’t know why they’ve been shown...
1.2 Huge plot holes, such as the beginning of the mission in Rome. The team didn't get the assignment from their primary contact at the agency, and they didn't in any way bother. It is not known with whom agreed and flew to another country, it is not known what to do. That's where their problems started. About the ease and speed of moving to other countries, I will remain silent.
2. Acting, particularly Brie Larson. In general, not happy with her acting abilities, but here they are just at zero.
3. The laws of physics have once again been sent to hell. After the fifth part, I remember there was a lot of controversy about the reality of the safe chase. Against the background of the chase in the tenth, the safes no longer cause questions.
What is the scene in which Dominic in a car with two helicopters attached manages to split the column of enemy cars with these helicopters? And to do it so filigree that all the cars just demolished, and the car with his son just turned.
4. What about his son? When he appeared in the franchise, he was a bright “Aleshka”, and now the curly “Maximka”.
There are many disadvantages to find, pluses are more difficult.
I’ll be watching the next part too.
It is interesting to know what else they will come up with and when they will finally finish.
I still don’t understand why I keep watching this. That’s probably the biggest question that has plagued me for a long time in this franchise. It wasn’t originally brilliant or over-thought-out, but it was warm in the form of friendship and then family. Now the family is just a bright wrapper, a brand or something similar to these definitions, which even as a whole mechanism has ceased to work. You are in the family, so you have to, so you go and do it. This is the explanation for everything.
Vin Diesel increasingly gets used to the role of Groot, which is why his face gives a maximum of two, and sometimes, if lucky, three intonations. Every time I saw Dominic Toretto, I expected him to say, 'I am Groot,' which didn't seem to change anything. Dante, played by Jason Momoa, is great. In general, he became the best antagonist in the history of the Furious, who has his own very significant motivation to infuriate the Family, he is very charismatic in himself, slightly mad, but very influential and dangerous. In the background, Dominic looks very dull. He looks dull even against his brother Jacob, played by John Cena. But there's something wrong with him, too. For some reason, they suddenly decided that it could be a comedy character against the background of the successful “Peacemaker” James Gunn, but I would like to see it as harsh as it was in the previous part.
Logic many characters do not take away, sometimes it is not at all. Letty's fight with Cypher in a secret prison - is that what and for what? At that moment I didn't understand anything at all. Girls began to fight here a lot, even the most fragile in appearance. I’ve watched a lot of women’s MMA fights, but to the level of the main characters of “Fast and Furious” they are all like the moon. Don’t get it wrong, I’m not criticizing the female gender in any way, and I don’t think they’re weak, but when the skinny and slim Jordana Brewster fools a head-to-toe special agent who is clearly trained and experienced, it raises a lot of questions. Well, the cherry on the cake is a propaganda of violence, and frankly. Killing people, even though they are bad, is presented as entertainment. The son of Dominic himself presses the launch of missiles from the modified wheelbarrow of his uncle Jacob and shoots at all enemy cars, as if in a computer game, and, at the same time, rejoices at every shot. This is very strange, especially when you see how people usually react to the taking of someone’s life in reality, even a common enemy.
So why am I...why am I still looking at this? I don’t know the answer to this question. It would seem that the point of limit of my excuses has long passed, but no. I turn on this movie over and over again, and every time I watch it with a dissatisfied face, I watch it from and to. What kind of magic can you tell me?
I don’t understand people who take films like Fast and Furious seriously. The films of this saga are intended for entertainment and recreation. They are needed in order to get away from everyday, routine life and get rid of incredible action scenes that violate all the laws of physics (viewers like to look at them and be surprised by what the creators have come up with, this is the phenomenon of Fast and Furious), laugh with boyish quotes Toretto and jokes of the main characters). These are entertaining films, and I think that even connoisseurs of quality cinema still have a series of entertaining films that he likes, because it is simply impossible to watch only serious films. Any person will want to watch such films sometimes, just everyone’s tastes are different, someone loves a superhero, someone is a killer action movie in the style of John Wick, and someone for this purpose fits the Furious. Nobody watches movies like that all the time. The same "Fast and Furious" comes out every 2 years. For me, the films in this series were such entertainment. Part 9, of course, was very disappointing. She was wretched even for Furious. So on the 10th I went without much hope, but in the end was pleasantly surprised. The Furious X is still delusional, self-repeating fiction, but compared to all the previous parts (starting with Part 4, when Furious became what it became), I can definitely say that it is the best. To my surprise, I was really interested in watching it. Therefore, I decided to highlight the reasons why I believe that this part is the most watchable compared to the previous ones, starting with the 4th. All these reasons are absolutely commonplace for any film, but for Fast and Furious it is an incredible progress.
Plot. Yeah, he's here. In the previous "Fast and Furious" plot, we can say, was not. Announced some hero who wants to take over the world and then the family Toretto together stopped him. In Part 8, Toretto was forced to betray his family to save her. In the 10th part, a new hero is also announced, but now the characters do not act together. Now they're being separated. On one side, Dominic, on the other, Jacob and his son, on the third, Tej, Roman, Ramsay and Han, and on the fourth, Letty and Cypher, who are now forced to act together. Due to this separation of characters, screen time is more harmoniously distributed. Surprisingly, Momoa and Cena now have about the same screen time combined as Diesel. Yeah, he's not so clearly dominant now. Now we have characters acting separately, who have been given enough time, to the detriment of Vin. It dilutes the picture pretty well. The isolation of the characters from each other creates a ragged picture, but this only becomes more interesting, because the characters operate in completely different locations and each of them has a separate role. The plot is really good for an entertaining film and causes interest. It is also interesting that the creators want to combine all subsequent films into a single plot. Let me remind you that in Part 9, a traitor appeared in the agency, Mr. Nobody is missing. In the new film we will learn new details, because the theme of the Agency here is one of the key. The ending of the film generally ends at the climax and really creates intrigue. In it there are prerequisites for the appearance in the following parts of the family Shaw and Hobbs. The creators just want to stuff almost all the characters who were in the previous parts in the finale, even Brian perhaps. You know what game that is. So Furious X is Infinity War before Endgame. Just understand, the authors just want to shock the audience from the number of stars on the screen and crazy plot with action. Such films are stupid to take seriously.
Characters. They've changed for the better. Diesel now doesn't play pompous rocking with a stone face. At least now he's trying to play his father. Throughout the film, he was frightened. The key link in the film is his son, for whom Dom is afraid. Throughout the film, he will save the lives of other heroes, not himself. The evil one wants to cause him suffering. Jacob is very charismatic. His duet with his son Doma diluted the whole picture well. It is also diluted by new characters, Tess and Elizabeth. Looking at the old characters is already tired, the new ones at least bring diversity. A lot of people say they're not needed here, but I think they're obviously going to play a role in the next parts. And the main thing is, of course, the villain. He was very charismatic. This is what all those who are not lazy say. I'll tell you, he does sometimes inspire fear. His madness and madness can be felt through the screen. And most importantly, it feels superior to the main characters. He constantly drives them into pre-prepared traps, mocks them, plays with them, that is, roughly speaking, he is not stupid like the villains from the previous parts. And he now has a more specific purpose - to inflict suffering on Dominic, not an abstract takeover of the world. Because of this, the threat hanging over his loved ones feels much stronger.
Action. He was always at the top level in Furious (except for the 9th part). But here I want to say that the creators, in my opinion, found a gold mine. The action here is not as crazy as in the 9th part, but also not boring. The bomb scene in Rome is one of the best in The Fast and the Furious, and it’s not really fantastic. The whole action is quite grounded compared to other parts. All the madness left for the final chase. The main focus is on the chase. They have more time than in other parts. I especially liked the race in Rio, but it has to do with nostalgia. Street racing in Rio, in Latin America, where the main characters come from – that’s what I’ve always associated with Fast and Furious. That was the atmosphere in Rio. So I liked Elizabeth's character. Poor favela girl who went into street racing while her sister became a cop. She has almost no relatives. This is the kind of character that fits the real, old Furious. Any scene with street racing will make fans of the first part nostalgic, so I am glad that the creators added such a scene to the film.
I also want to point out what many people don’t know. All the songs in the film are ordered by the creators from the most popular artists. All. And the songs are amazing. I don’t know of any other movie that has something like that. The creators ordered 21 tracks specifically for the film. There was no such number in the previous parts. I think they can be commended for that.
Momoa's Laughter as an Assessment of the New Furious
In order not to be disappointed in the sequels - you need to sit down to watch the sequels without sighs and nostalgia a la 'oh, how beautiful were the first afterburners, it's a pity that the series was exhausted'. And to tune in as a separate whole film without internal binding to your feelings from the old parts. Then it will be easier and more pleasant to watch. This is how I would start my review if it were positive.
But no. I’m disappointed with everything about this film and wouldn’t even write about it if I didn’t want to shout out in the context of the film industry as a whole. The thing is that the next afterburner is only one of the many victims of the rules of the game that Hollywood puts forward. The rules are not new and this song is already old, which critics have been singing about since the early 10s. Timekeeping is shortened so that soon it will look like a 25 frame video. The picture is torn: an explosion, a villain's laugh, a shot, the stare of the main character, a tyre slip - for all 5 seconds and so on in a circle. Although, to be honest, I didn’t want to watch Dominic for more than a few seconds – any “boy public” will envy such a number of cheap quotes. In fact, he never said anything in the film. Dialogue here is a separate pain. Provincial pathos in every sentence, the humor is such that it seems that if the actors improvised, it would be funnier. Coupled with the picture, it all looks like it’s not a movie, but one continuous trailer, in which events change each other with great speed, but you do not remember them and do not even ask standard questions, as in the previous parts – and what was it? Because it was nothing. If earlier flying into space by car was mixed with its absurdity (but at least it was remembered and could be attributed to “action”), now it just looks like the scenario of the game “the evil within”, where random characters, enemies, suddenly changing locations, etc. constantly popped up around the main character.
Furious at some point ceased to be an afterburner, became a fantastic action movie, everyone already understood and accepted it. But now the afterburner simply “failed in the textures”, it is impossible to identify, and to call, except as a typical film – one-time nothing. But the filmmakers couldn’t have done it differently. Can you imagine? For example, remove a huge number of frames with the “family” of the main character. Why were we shown scenes of his wife being put in jail and then trying to get out? Why all the scenes with the rest of his family? Listen to Romana and Tej jokes? Removing them all from the timekeeping, focusing on the confrontation between the heroes of Diesel and Momoa, perhaps this would make the film more holistic, but, of course, completely separate from the main idea of the line of afterburner - "family". Although wait, it turns out that you would have to listen five times more to the philosophy of Dominic Toretto and the laughter of the villain. No, making this movie good would be an impossible task.
This strange feeling of flying knows where. When the goat-bearded bardick howls again about something "and the engine roars." It doesn't matter what's around the corner. It's all about the process. Like the alkonauts at a certain stage - when they drink for the sake of the process itself. So are the fans of this series (yes, I love it too). I will tell you right away – “Fast and Furious-10” is at least a head higher and better than “Furious-9”. And this is the main and main advantage. And the chase in Rome. And chasing in... In general, watching on the big screen the film is worthy just for the sake of a couple of three chases. Scenes are fire!
And then there is just the most magnificent and brutal Momoa. The main new villain of the series. A man who is very comfortable with colorful clothes and expensive jewelry. But the fear of all this he does not cease to be. In general, Jason quite played here for the nomination for the current “Oscar”.
And otherwise... All villains are defeated by the magical power of the Domenic Toreto Family.
There will be a lot of pathos and a lot of stupidity. But with all this - great chases and magnificent Momoa and Sina (still there is a type of rockers who are organically able to comedy).
The main characters of the series have long overstepped the stupid limitations of the human body. Now they are almost demigods, ancient heroes. That can rush through the fire and survive almost in the devil on horns.
And more. "Guys, we're in for episode two!" Continue the adventures of the House and his family in the next part!
Resume. Watch. Eyes at maximum, brain activity at minimum. Let's go!
Over the past two decades, the release of the next part of the film “Fast and Furious” has become a tradition. But is it a good tradition - that is the question!
If in the first parts the main characters were mainly Dominic and Brian, with a slight but interesting digression in the third film, then later the composition expanded significantly, turning into a kind of "The Expendables". In each new part there is another famous actor, in the tenth film, Jason Momoa, known primarily for the role of Aquaman. And, perhaps, his performance is the only positive in the whole film! It turned out to be such a charismatic but terrifying villain. I think he was inspired by the Joker and the Joker would have succeeded.
No, I lied. There is another positive point - with a film duration of more than two hours, despite the hugely sprawling team, everyone had enough screen time. The above-mentioned "Expendables" with the disclosure of characters - trouble, Sly draws attention to himself, giving maximum screen time to himself, in "Fast and Furious" time is divided fairly and balanced - this is a great merit of the writer, editor, director.
That’s all, the movie’s worth is over.
The franchise itself is increasingly like a fairy tale. What we saw in the first parts was realistic - graphics, of course, were used, but not to deceive the viewer, but where it was necessary to ensure the safety of the stuntman, actor or cameraman.
Gradually, movies become more fantastic and fantastic. What is a single flight into space in a diving suit on a car in the last part!
The car itself Torreto does not sink in the fire, does not burn in the water, flies, stronger than a tank, and generally does the unthinkable. Every villain necessarily has a fleet of mask cars, which he does not regret to break. And each villain has a separate tooth for each of Dominic's friends.
The level of unreality of what was happening in the tenth film went so high that I mastered two hours of the film itself in several techniques. The laws of physics are finally forgotten and erased from the universe of "Fast and Furious", cars finally replaced computer graphics. It is unclear why humanity invented tanks, planes, ships, if all this is successfully replaced by a single masked car.
The first film gave rise to a culture of street racing, yes, in many ways - controversial, but after the third film from street racing left one memory, and from brutal heroes - fairy-tale characters.
There will be a parallel here with The Terminator, which has become impossible for those who remember the first films to watch. With Fast and Furious, history repeats itself!
The only question I have left is, can the eleventh get worse than the tenth?
Anyone who watches Fast and Furious doesn’t laugh at Indian action.
If in the previous films of the Fast and Furious franchise, the authors still sought to raise the bar of madness, then the tenth part simply drowned in self-repeats. On the one hand, the emphasis on typical car rides is a return to the origins, but on the other hand, without an innovative fresh look, the result was a step backwards. It seems that the creators in terms of ideas hit the ceiling and simply decided to take the best that was in other parts, and stupidly repeat, including the characters. In the new film crammed literally everyone who previously participated in the project. If in the previous parts there was a large square safe, then this time you get a giant round bomb, which also destroys everything around the streets of a cute town.
The film is frankly spoiled by meaningless dialogues filled with hypocritical false pathos. The main character constantly talks about the importance of the family, but at the same time does not care a bit about other innocent people who have lost their lives. At the very beginning of the film, a scene with a safe from the previous part is shown, where the cars of innocent policemen who were just doing their job were destroyed as much as possible. Some accidents have been fatal for drivers. And after that, Dominic Toretto, on a picnic with tears in his eyes, poisons heartfelt words about the family, while depriving other families of his own father, brother, uncle and so on. It turns out that these are not just virtuoso riders and thieves, but the real killers and finished scum. Against the background of all that is happening, it looks rather nasty and disgusting, while the creators seem to push the audience to empathize with these heroes and their problems.
In the new film frankly overdone with family ties. Whatever the hero is, it is some relative of the previously stated character. As a result, the son avenges his father, the father will save his son, the sister is eager to help in memory of his sister, the other son is in a hurry to help his mother and so on endlessly.
With the action in the film, too, not everything is smooth. Some scenes look convincing, and some look very wretched and cartoonish, especially with a round bomb rolling around the city. Whoever watches Fast and Furious does not laugh at Indian action.
And yet, despite the dramatic despondency and boring action, the situation is saved by Jason Momoa, who, in the image of a psychopathic villain, added several bright colors to the story. The fact that Momoa brazenly pulled the blanket over himself, leaving behind a sour mine of Vin Diesel, makes the film more or less attractive at least for a moment. As a result, it becomes interesting to observe not the heroes, but, on the contrary, the villains who make a large family really suffer.
In general, the tenth part turned out to be very boring, expressionless and meaningless with the beautiful Jason Momoa.
p.s. Don’t forget to add a post-credits scene if anyone sees this misunderstanding through.
Sometimes it seems that along with the death of Paul Walker, the Furious died. The finale of Fast and Furious 7 looked not only a worthy farewell, albeit not to the great but charismatic actor and soulful guy, but also in principle a perfect point for all the adventures of Brian O'Connor and Dominic Toretto. It seemed that we could stop and end on a high note. But then Vin 'I am a Capitalist' Diesel came in and looked at the $1.5 billion and said, 'Finish it? Why? We're just getting started, actually!
From a financial point of view, the bald man did not lose. And although no sequel ever reached the unthinkable figures of the seven, the money still poured in the river. Growing and fees Toretto and his voracious family, which is now replenished with eminent actors/wrestlers to maintain the audience interest. But from a creative point of view, a rapid degradation began.
And it's not even about physics, okay, an action movie is an action movie and many action movies put a healthy bolt on it. But what happened to the heroes? Where did even a gram of team charisma go? First of all, this applies to Diesel himself with a sour mine for the entire film, whose face with each part becomes puffier. It's like he's been drinking Corona all day eating crackers. It seems that he is no longer interested in films and just waiting for a new check and another mountain of gold at the box office. But if the main actor is not interested, then why show interest to the audience?
It's even worse with secondary heroes. Why would a movie have so many characters from past movies and new faces? Many of them add nothing and make a simple plot unnecessarily overloaded. Compounding this problem is the immortality of the characters and the convention of local villains. The hero remembered by the audience died? He will be back after two or three movies. Is an evil man threatening the Toretto family? Who cares? He'll still feel respect for Diesel and then become a family friend himself. I'm just sure all the "dead" in this part will then be resurrected again, and the worst psychopath Momoa will become Dominica's loyal friend. And then new characters will be added, after which the hero’s leapfrog will become a concrete obstacle to everything. All this devalues the importance of heroes.
The script is generally as if inserted on the principle of Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V. Only some elements change, and the rest is exactly the same. The action is catastrophically predictable, without intrigue, each new event can be predicted, and together with the immortality of local heroes, what is happening ceases to arouse even minimal interest. There's only one scene I didn't expect to see. In it, the character Momoa paints the nails of rotting corpses and in a stylish robe talks about toxic masculinity. This is the only scene that was hard to predict in a movie like this. The rest of the story is absolutely helpless.
All right, people go to these movies for the sake of a spectacle, maybe it didn't suck? But even here there is a problem, because with tolerable practical effects, a completely rusty-eyed chromakei and computer low-poly models appeared here. And this is not a nitpicking, in the flashback scene from the fifth part, where Momoa was sewn, you can clearly see where the footage from the last film is in real cars, and where Dante (played by Momoa) pretends to rule against the background of the green screen. To a pile, the action scene here does not stand out at all, there is almost no creativity. It doesn't go mad like RRR and there's no honed skill from the recent John Wick, no, except maybe the rolling bomb is as primitive as possible. Poorly mounted fights with dull NPCs, inconclusive effects and absolute secondary almost all action scenes. Even that rolling dam is not impressive, against the background of the same submarine from the eighth film. And all right, if it was an action movie worth 80, 100 million at most, but how much did you spend on the movie? 340 million without marketing and promotion? More than Infinity War?! 3.5 times more than John Wick? Another indication that the Diesel family should reduce the appetite in their checks.
What do we have in the dry residue? Why do you want to watch this movie and the new trilogy as a whole? Heroes both dull and immortal, history as such no longer matters and is just a collection of all the Santa Barbara clichés. Only if you are not at all pretentious to action films, but again there are action films that are either higher quality, or larger, or both. There is a choice to see. In any case, it is better to look for an entertaining movie more dignified than to once again approve a new lazy attempt to make money on the spectacle and leave on past merits. I sincerely wish that one day this same type of attraction finally died down and Diesel finally left alone the corpse of the former Furious.
In cinemas there is a rental of a new part of the epic “Fast and Furious 10” and, despite the defeat of critics, let’s understand.
Each subsequent part of the afterburner increased the level of delirium, which is only worth the scene: the flight of a car in outer space, the race of a car from a submarine on the icy surface of the bay and so on, so on, so on. Despite physical conventions and other simplifications, afterburner films look more or less normal for a pleasant pastime.
When watching the film “Fast and Furious 10” did not leave the thought of whether this part of the epic is similar to the past! Somewhere in the middle of the movie, you know, it’s a whole new part, it’s the perfect afterburner we’ve been waiting for.
Let's start with the minuses:
The first minus, we do not observe any development of all the characters, not only the main ones, but also minor ones, Ramsay appeared in the seventh part of the saga, but neither she nor her relationship with Roman and Tege received any development. This applies to almost all other characters except two, but it can be attributed to the pluses:
The second minus, the same artistic conditional that were in the previous parts of the film, wandering from part to part:
The third minus, quite a lot of empty and pathetic chatter, which we loved so much in the past parts:
The fourth disadvantage is a failed promotional campaign, which in the trailers of the film told almost the entire film, but for this reason I usually do not watch trailers.
Now pros:
The first plus, above all, is the successful decision to refuse to raise the stakes and land the film as much as possible. It looks much more interesting, although there are ambiguous moments.
The second plus, Jason Momoa in the role of Dante played his role simply stunning, his image of a crazy and creative person, refreshes the road-action on wheels. His image is a cross between the Joker (Heath Ledger) and Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp). Momoa coped with his acting tasks with a hurrah, which makes him attract attention, it is the charismatic villain “Furious” was lacking.
The third plus is the plot, although when we praised Fast and Furious for the plot, this one is hard to believe, but it’s really good in Part 10. Thanks to its groundedness and return to the origins of the first parts, the film looks much more interesting and convincing. And Dominic Torreto is now an adult father, which is why there are no shooting scenes and melee fights with his participation. It was like going back to the good old days when Torreto was a street racer. First of all, he is a professional driver.
The fourth plus, a nostalgic feeling that, despite all the past installments of the franchise, has not left us until now. We'll be watching the last parts of the movie.
The film “Fast and Furious 10” pleasantly surprised us by the fact that it tried to return us to the good old nostalgic times of the first parts of the film at the same time as mundane and realistic.
At the time of writing the review, the film’s global collection exceeded half a million dollars, which indicates a certain success of the film.
Furious 10: The Toretto family has a new enemy, Dante, who wants to avenge the death of his father. To be honest, after the last two films of “Fast and Furious”, which finally turned into science fiction films where they fly into space on a wheelbarrow, I had little hope for the adequacy of this film.
I didn’t even watch the trailers, but I decided to go to the movies with full confidence that I would tear this part apart with a negative review, but to my surprise the movie turned out quite good. To be honest, I’m in shock, but this time “Fast and Furious” did not make you “roll your eyes” every 5 minutes from what is happening on the screen.
What I liked was that the plot of the film revolved around saving the family, not the whole world, because of this, the story turned out to be more personal and it was quite interesting to watch. This time I wanted to praise from a technical point of view - the scenes of the chase in Rome looked very cool, spectacular, inventive.
In general, this time, of course, did not do without violating the laws of gravity in some scenes, but in the “Fast and Furious” for many years, they have been doing anything that you want to beat facepalm. Plus, you can highlight a bright picture, good camera work, change of locations, cheerful music, cool cars - all this is there. I am surprised myself, but during the whole film I was not bored, events developed quite dynamically, in terms of the development of the plot added drama, escalation of the situation that is about to die.
From the cast, I wanted to single out Jason Momoa (Dante) the antagonist of the film turned out to be a funny, charismatic villain with his cockroaches in his head, although Momoa cosplayed Jack Sparrow in places, nevertheless, he graced the film with his presence.
In general, Furious 10 turned out to be quite a watchable film, I think that the change of director went to the benefit of the franchise. Of course, it was not without treshanina in terms of the fact that some characters are not killed by the word at all, but Furious has long been on the path of superheroics, where the characters come out “dry out of the water” from incredible situations. Summing up does not make sense because it is not natural for the last race, so the continuation should be done.
There was a new series of Furious, namely the series, so so many films are more like a series. This is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen.
Paphos in every dialogue, in every frame and hero. It's like a competition where all the winners are. All of this, and the way they destroy the laws of physics, begins to resemble an Indian film.
There is nothing original in the plot itself - a new villain and his revenge, which came to us from the film released a few years earlier.
The film is set due to a situation that occurred in the fifth Fast and Furious (so, before watching, you should remember that there was five episodes ago). Such a plot technique has already been used in this chain of films, the rest remains unchanged - dead heroes rise, the living die (but obviously before the next film), cars fly, the family grows.
Separately, I want to highlight Dominic's car. She gets smashed in every movie, but she reappears time after time, more brilliant than before! What is she capable of?! And he flies and swims, and as he drives, there is magic involved, no other way! I wouldn’t be surprised if she started talking soon.
Despite all this, I want to watch the movie. There's something attractive about him. How will this story end, is there an end at all? What else will the writers come up with? Could there be more pathos? Which actors will appear in the frame? The search for answers and impressions again and again leads to the viewing of the new Furious. Watching, being surprised and relaxing will help you.
The plot can be described as follows: again there is a supervillain, again only the “family” can deal with him, again the previous villain becomes a friend (or an ally).
Cons of the film:
1) For some reason, all the characters, all the objects, and in general, everything that is a film has a yellow-orange touch. All the actors look like they ate carrots, tangerines, oranges and washed it all down with myrinda.
On the yellow-orange roads, our orange hero Dominic Torreto rushes in his orange car, and he is chased by orange enemies in yellow cars. And all this under the blue-yellow-orange sky.
Perhaps it was a feature of the copy of the film that I watched.
2) Shootings are so badly done that watching them is boring. And so it is clear in advance that the enemies will smear and even at point-blank range will not be able to get into the main characters.
Moreover, having firearms, enemies sometimes refuse to use them. They come up, chat with the heroes, try to twist them, and naturally the heroes just beat them. These impersonal henchmen of villains are even a little pity. Even Star Wars stormtroopers were more effective in combat.
(3) Invulnerability and "extraordinary coolness" of the main characters, especially Dominic. Even James Bond is not as cool as the main characters, and he is a secret service agent.
Someone will say that this is the main feature of this series of films, and even the heroes themselves joke about it. But how can I empathize with heroes who are physically impossible to destroy?
(4) During all these heroisms, quite a lot of ordinary people die. And somehow I don't see any special experiences in the main characters. They are not members of the family.
(5) Entire cities are scattered, and the reaction of local authorities in the film is not shown at all.
Pros:
1) Jason Momoa is not the best actor, but he looks good against the rest.
Conclusion: very average film.
Forgot to put the conveyor on the "handman" and wrap everything. . .
I went to this part in isolation from the others, since I saw parts after the fifth in snatches, but their plot was known to me plus or minus. The choice was between him and the third Guardians of the Galaxy, but the Fast and Furious approached in time.
He did not build any illusions at once, since the analysis of previous films made it clear long before that one should not expect some “Wow”.
The first thing that met in the film - stupid "Gags" Roman and flashbacks Toretto (Torentych, Torettych, Solyarych, etc.). Well, not in the first, humor, in principle, appropriate. Mother/grandmother/great-grandmother/who she is on the Toretto line didn’t really elicit any emotions. The usual calm before the storm.
The first 30-40 minutes of the film is perhaps the most worthwhile thing in it, especially the chase scene in Rome, where, judging by the materials, everything was filmed in nature. The rest - sometimes the degree of delirium just skyrocketed, forcing you to sit with an undisguised 'facepalm'.
Separately, I would like to note the truly "excellent" work of those responsible for costumes - they apparently have a balaclava and a balaclava / mandible for helmets a la OPS-CORE / Crye Precision / EXFIL on the whole continent was not found in sufficient quantity, that most, if not all background opponents wear as a helmet kit and face protection ... net airball protection. Seriously, was it not fate to buy at least airball analogues of real body kits, so as not to make the henchmen of the villains look complete idiots?
I can neither scold nor praise the work of the operator. It's just that.
Plot AND ACTORS
The roots of the plot grow from the fifth part of the adventures of Solyarych and Co., the same one where two Dodges pulled a safe through the streets of Rio de Janeiro. Remember, right? The same old-fashioned ones... All right, back to our gas station kings. It turns out that successfully went to the kingdom of Hades Glavgad had a son - Dante (no, not that) Reyes. Apparently, what happened on the bridge left a lot of damage on his psyche (like a shard that passed through his brain is attached), which made him turn firmly on the idea of revenge on the Toretto family.
Dante performed by Jason Momoa, although often frankly overplays, starting with fury, as they say, “gnaw props”, but compared to the same Diesel, who most of the time on the face the same emotion, looks much more profitable.
Surprisingly, very good, in my opinion, was John Cena in his chemistry between uncle and nephew.
The rest of the line-up... Well, it just is, including the same Statham.
The performance is good for the first 30-40 minutes, the rest of the time is so fresh that it even hits self-copying.
Soundtrack
In general, passed by me, compared to the second and fourth / fifth parts.
Physics
Quietly crying under the table.
Graphics
I won’t say that it’s bad, but I expected much more from a film with a budget of 340 million (the second Avatar has 360).
REPORT
It’s not the worst movie I’ve ever seen, but in a number of ways it’s seriously inferior even to itself in the mid-10s. The only plus - the story has become more local and the focus on saving the world is no longer focused. Thanks for that, too. Considering that there are two or three more "last races" - clearly this conveyor will not stop.
If you don’t care what to watch, just to get distracted after work / school – maybe it will.
5 out of 10
