I watched Fast and Furious 6 yesterday.
In the midst of all the clanging metal and screeching tires and pounding fists, I thought how odd that the story line looped over itself in such away it appeared secondary to the desire that it be fast paced and loud.
I still believe that as important as it is for the machines to tell their tale, those scenes humanising it lent a side that got everyone in the cinema laughing and sighing together.
Emotions are important; storytelling that lifts the objective of the movie even if it be nuanced can still be used in a way that grinds the lure of Fast and Furious deeper, etching permanent tattoos of commitment into fans, old and new alike.
I give it a 4/5. It was hard, boisterous, efficient and unbelievable taking one away into a world, a cross between fiction and reality. A Saturday afternoon well spent, highly recommended.

I have just reviewd “The words”, a movie about a writer who has to face the consequences of stealing another man’s work. Check it out: http://jumabahati.blogspot.com/2013/06/recommended-viewing-words.html
Will do 🙂
Fast and Furious 6 would be a 2.5/3 for me. Its Fast 5 I would give a four to. the scenes where they tore of the vaults from the police station and made away with them was absolutely breathless. Six was OK. I find this line ….etching permanent tattoos of commitment into fans, old and new alike more fetching than the movie itself .Lovely review..
I also prefer 5.. Waiting for Fast 7 though, I’m a fan, wearing that invisible tattoo with pride lol. Thanks 🙂
