Boasting almost all of the cast members from all of the previous movies, as well as the addition of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, welcome to the second outing, Fast Five. A few Facebook and Twitter teaser posts later and fans found out that they were in store for not just this one new movie, but a whole new trilogy. Clearly the biggest recent success in the careers of all those involved (okay, so Rodriguez had a supporting role in Avatar, but she’s done little else of note), it soon became apparent that this was not the end of the series, but actually a new beginning. Yes, it’s throwaway silliness masquerading under a pseudo-serious revenge plot, and peppered with increasingly ludicrous stunts, but it was a whole lot of fun. I still remember the great teaser trailer, which featured a frantic foot-chase across the rooftops and streets: it actually made me quite interested in returning to the series. It saw all of the key cast from the original hit return, not just Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, but also Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster. Two years ago it happened, with the fourth film in the franchise (the third chronologically, as Tokyo Drift is actually set after all of the rest of the movies) being released – simply titled Fast & Furious. But it did feature a cameo from Vin Diesel, teasing fans with the promise that the man may return to the fold. Still, the franchise somehow lived on, moving the setting to Tokyo for the third instalment and dropping all of the familiar faces. Unfortunately, the second movie dropped the biggest, best star of the original – a young Vin Diesel fresh from his cracking debut Pitch Black – and headlined the lacklustre, wooden co-star Paul Walker instead. It was bristling with macho posturing, had plenty of frantic races, and made enough money to guarantee a sequel.
A decade ago I remember enjoying the first instalment at the flicks, a fairly modest budget Point Break-lite production which was both a sleeper hit and also a breakthrough vehicle for some of its relatively new talent. Some trick plot would then involve Paul Walker.Well I never really expected to see another Fast and the Furious movie at the cinema. Maybe with some flashback to explain how he went there. Well, it could be nice but I'd rather see Fast and Furious 5 picking up picks up right where Tokyo Drift ended. Paul Walker has been talking about Fast and Furious 5 shifting location to Europe. No official release date yet for FF5 but unless they fasttrack its development Fast and Furious 5 is unlikely to get released before 2012. And I would no be surprised if this 20-minutes film was an opportunity to check his skills for him to take over the direction of Fast and Furious 5. He's been working on a short film prequel to FF4 that should be released with the DVD. But it is not yet set in stone: Vin Diesel could indeed get the job. Justin Lin is likely to direct this fifth Fast and Furious movie. Really impatient to see the first movie trailer of Fast and Furious, can't wait!Īnd the end of Fast and Furious 4 has been clearly made with a new Fast and furious sequel in mind: you can but think that Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), aka Dom, is going to somehow escape and that Brian O'Connor (Paul Walker) will meet him again. Now, he must rely on his instincts to corner his prey…before someone else runs them down first." But as his men tear through Brazil, Hobbs learns he can’t separate the good guys from the bad. When he is assigned to track down Dom and Brian, he and his strike team launch an all-out assault to capture them.
Hard-nosed federal agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) never misses his target. As they assemble their elite team of top racers, the unlikely allies know their only shot of getting out for good means confronting the corrupt businessman who wants them dead. Now backed into a corner in Rio de Janeiro, they must pull one last job in order to gain their freedom. "Since Brian (Paul Walker) and Mia Toretto (Jordana Brewster) broke Dom (Vin Diesel) out of custody, they've blown across many borders to elude authorities. Let's check the official synopsis of the movie Fast Five:
