The Fate of the Furious Film Review

Finished watching The Fate of the Furious, directed by F. Gary Grey and staring Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Charlize Theron, Dwayne Johnson, Terese Gibson, Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges, Nathalie Emmanuel and Jason Statham. The film opens up with Dominic (Vin Diesel) and Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) on holiday in Cuba where Dom gets into a typical car chase that's has been a staple of the franchise. Soon after Dom comes into contact with Cipher (Charlize Theron) who seemingly blackmails Dom into work for her. Meanwhile Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) is meet by a government agent at his daughter's football game where his given a mission to retrieve a powerful EMP device with the help form Dom, Letty and the rest of the team consisting of Roman (Terese Gibson), Tej (Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges) and Ramsey (Nathalie Emmanuel). After retrieving the device Dom causes Luke to get caught as he takes the device to Cipher and cements the fact that he has betrayed his friends. Overall this was a good film as does a nice job in blending action and character moments very well thanks to how each character and actor work of one another and the action bringing to life some great visuals. The reason for Dom working with Cipher in the film leads to a great and very emotional revaluation by giving Dom a great amount of development with in the film and motive to to seemingly betray his friends, which also leads to a great scene with Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) towards the end of the film that is happening simultaneously with what's happening with the rest of the cast. 7/10.
