This was bad. Unfortunately Lin brought nothing new to the table and there was no setpiece worth watching as well.

I'm on the high seas thanks to a IPTV thing I'm subscribed to in order to watch Indian tv channels.

Obviously... so boring by now.  Take a stand, people!  And Tyrese mentioned every other opening country *except* China in his bit in that promo video, so why aren't they angry at him??  🙄

Would have been a better apology if he just copied this:

Really enjoyed 5, 6 and 7 when they started to switch up the movies but Fate of the Furious and Hobbs and Shaw showed diminishing returns for me.

This franchise is a true head scratcher to me 😂

 

but each to their own lol. Glad it’s getting bums in seats in the cinemas 

The fast movies morphed into an overbudgeted old school action movie franchise we rarely get these days with today action stars. There's a number of reasons the franchise is such a hit, from Paul Walkers death to the franchise's focus on a diverse set of character in a diverse set of locations made this truly special for worldwide audiences. It also did this before it was cool and didn't flaunt its diversity *cough disney cough* by patting itself in the back.

The F&F aren't "great" but they're better than any recent Bay or Snyder flicks from the last ten years...and they don't divide audiences.  

 

Id argue Michael Bay movies rarely divided audiences before the most recent Bayformers movies, they just divided the 0.01% of critics out there. Most people have fun with Bay movies. Armageddon topped the year, BB1 & 2 became classics, hence the success of BB3 and Transformers 1 was so well recieved it spawned 3 shitty sequels which topped 1billion. Even the supposedly hated Pearl Harbour which was a huge success among audiences

Fast five was the best at the time and a decade on is still the best.

Yes... which is why I said "from the last ten years"...most Bay pre-Formers is genius blockbuster filmmaking. 

 

And by "divisive"...you know who/what I'm talking about.

Tokyo Drift is still the best imo, but out of the ridiculous ones Fast Five is good lol.

Uh... by "genius blockbuster" I mean... I would rather go back and watch any Bay movie from the 1990s than almost any Hollywood blockbuster from the last 10 (or possibly even 20) years... There's a style and brash attitude there in the filmmaking that is wonderful entertainment, no matter how "stupid" the films may seem...  and top quality tech credits and practical effects that aren't glossed over by copious CGI and "digital glossing."
