What is it about these movies that make me incredibly happy? Plot elements, acting ability, general ridiculousness that would sink any other movie are gleefully enjoyed when it comes to the Fast and the Furious franchise. Jason Statham’s final fight scene was my favorite, but there were many other enjoyable moments in these 136 minutes.

I loved the concept of a grieving widow finding a double of her husband. Both Annette Bening and Ed Harris did their usual steller work. I also appreciates Jess Weixler’s brief, but memorable scene.*

*Probably the best freak-out I’ve seen in the past few years.

This was brilliantly acted with a lot of nuance and great performances. It’s also a movie that trails off with no ending, which can be interesting and also as if the writer didn’t know how to end their story. Overall, one of those films I don’t mind that I watched, but am not chomping to return to it.
Cost: $1.50 from Redbox
