So I came across your blog after it was freshly pressed (congrats on that, btw!) and am a little in love with this description. I didn't think I'd love this movie as much as I did, but I think that the Italian Job feel and The Rock's muscles having muscles made it my favorite movie of the summer. So far. Though Thor is a close second.
I've come to learn that if The Rock is in a film then I'm probably going to enjoy it on the strength of his performance alone, plus I really enjoyed the last F&F, so I was generally happy that this one lived up to my expectations.
The Rock playing a cross between Dutch from Predator and Tommy Lee Jones' character from The Fugitive just absolutely made it, in my opinion.
Accurate description. I didn't see any of the other FF movies in the series. I just saw a trailer of fast cars, gunfire and The Rock in a tight t-shirt. Sufficiently coaxed. I was in. Coincidentally, I am now a Vin Diesel fan.
YES!!!! I HAVE NEVER HEARD IT EXPLAINED SO PERFECTLY!!!! THAT MOVIE WAS AWESOME.
