Furious 7 you know what's more surprising than the fact that there's seven of these the fact that they actually got better up until Fast Five I wasn't a huge fan but that film reinvigorated this franchise and I had a lot of fun with fast six as well I thought they were both very well directed action movies James Wan who is really well known for the conjuring and the insidious films and the first Saw movie is now taking over the directorial reins and since I try to avoid spoilers because I care about your experience at the theater I won't explain the revenge plot that's going on in this film in case you have not seen the last one but essentially a character is no longer around and we have the team we know and love led by Vin Diesel going out for revenge against the guy responsible I bought this blu-ray collection even though I like about half of the movies and largely because they come in a tire it's a freaking tire of blu-rays can you get more awesome than that my point is I like having fun at the movies so I was excited for Furious 7 and I can report that it is a lot of fun it's a big stupid dumb time with cars flying out of airplanes and using parachutes explosions and fistfights left and right the rock flexing his muscles these are all great things and there's part of me that has to sit back you know as a person who likes to analyze film and realize some films just aren't meant for that some films are just meant to be dumb and awesome and the Furious films are those movies
I was really satisfied with the car chase scenes in particular James Wan did a really good job of getting some gritty and more intense camera angles Justin Lin had a very sleek look to his movies and in the long run, I think his films were better directive in this movie in all honesty now as you guys know the production of this movie faced a major problem when Paul Walker tragically passed away everyone was really saddened by that myself included everything I've ever heard about that man was that he was or the sweetest guys in Hollywood and it's very sad and I can't really doc this movie for the fact that there are aspects of it that do feel very convoluted there are parts where the plot seems like it's happening in two different movies and those plots don't always come together and mix well and yes it is unfortunately painfully obvious when CGI Paul Walker is around you can just tell and it makes it a little awkward and that is something that is unfortunate but is kind of unavoidable and I can't in good conscience say too many negative things about that because yes there are absolutely parts of this movie where the plot feels very jumbled and very messyjason Statham as a villain is a fantastic idea but I do feel that he's very underutilized in this movie he kind of just comes in whenever they need him to he just sort of shows up he comes out in an elevator and there he is and then he disappears for a while and there's this whole plot about fighting this piece of technology that can locate any person on the planet it's all over the place that it's really hard to know what kind of movie they were making before that tragedy occurred but as
I said I do think that most fans are going to be satisfied by this movie it is a fitting send-off for Paul Walker's the character I do think they handled that as best they could but I do have two major issues with this movie and they have nothing to do with the production or anything that went on with it my first being that my favorite thing that happened in the Fast and Furious franchise ever was the rock as Hobbs he made five and six-way better than they could have been he's barely in this movie and that was a major disappointment for me he's got a cool scene in the beginning and then he's pretty much out of commission for the entire film and that was really a big letdown for me because he added so much adrenaline and so much humor to this movie and the rock is such a likable presence as an actor that I wanted more of him and it was disappointing to see that he was barely in the movie and my other issue and my biggest one is, unfortunately, the thing I was worried the most about James Wan's handling of the hand-to-hand combat scenes unfortunately he chose to adopt the hyperactive high frame rate quick-cut editing style of today now there isn't shaky-cam per se it's just that there are tons and tons of edits and the high frame rate of it and the close-up nature of it make it difficult to tell what's going on those are my two big disappointments I'm not going to say negative things about the convoluted plot because I'm almost positive that they had such a hard time making this movie because it would happen and I can't in good conscience say something negative about that nevertheless, I think fans are going to have a really good time with Furious 7
I was a little disappointed I did not like it as much as 5 and 6 but overall it is a fittings send-off for Walker's character there is a lot of action it's a little too long but I am going to say that you should go out and see Furious 7 if you just want to have a dumb diverting time at theatres where you don't care about anything except shoving popcorn in your mouth and watching dudes drive fast cars and some pretty badass chicks to I'm going to give Furious 7 the plots convoluted it's all over the place but I have to give it to these filmmakers for sitting down and thinking up the best way to do this a respectful way and dealing with that unfortunate tragedy and the best way they could have and I got to give my hat's off to those guys if you did see this film let me know what you thought of it below and I did recently post my anime review for kids on the slope directed by Shinichiro Watanabe of Cowboy Bebop Fame a lot of people have been requesting that and I delivered that review yesterday so if you want to check it out it's on my blog right now guys thank you so much as always for Reading and if you like this you can comment write here and get stuck mine eyes
