Title says it "goes through the motions" Quote These pictures have gotten increasingly overblown and overlong, and they have worked their way through four separate directors, so that this eighth “Furious” film is entrusted to “Straight Outta Compton” director F. Gary Gray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elcaballero Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 (edited) Ehrlich's review may be negative, but it made me even more excited for the movie. Spoiler Part of the movie feels like Jason Statham and The Rock in a buddy comedy. Also, don't read it if you want to avoid some (admittedly pretty obvious) spoilers.

DAJK Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 I can take it Still will probably open to 100-110 IMO. 250/750 would be great for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJG Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Quote the Fast and Furious franchise may just be the opposite of Star Trek where the odd-numbered installments are generally better than the even-numbered ones.
