FastX’s review
“If you are a fan of the series and enjoy the extravagant action, charismatic characters, and disregard for realism that the franchise is known for, then you may find entertainment value in Fast X,” said WION’s review. Despite its limitations, it has the same characteristics that have drawn fans.
I’m not being condescending, but I prefer more in my movies. Like: underlying complexity, thought-provoking ideas, and sophisticated narrative. “Every movie has room for mindless action and fun, but that should be part of the movie, not the movie.”
