Fast and Furious 6
Math problem: If the minimum take-off speed for a cargo
plane is 150 mph, and that cargo plane is being chased by an elite team of
drag-racers for ten minutes, then how long does the runway need to be? Answer:
“You don't turn your back on family…” Logic and physics never really played a
role in the Fast and Furious movies. It’s James Bond for the subwoofer crowd, but
bigger, louder, and more badass. Go 'Merica! Vin Diesel, who has all the charisma of a flying brick,
grunts one line after another of bumper-sticker philosophy at a level of
nonchalance even Stallone would admire. The rest of the cast bounces from
brooding to smart aleckey. The script is more concerned about being macho than
it is about making sense, with a pace that’s forcefully speedy, so as to NOT allow
the audience to stop and think for a nanosecond about how impossible everything
is. It’s not going to make you a better person, but it’s good for a laugh.
