Furious 7 is just like the past 6 movies in the series is all about the action/entertainment and as long as you don't forget that well watching the film you may enjoy it, But you will have to suspend your believe in reality slightly. The carsFurious 7 is just like the past 6 movies in the series is all about the action/entertainment and as long as you don't forget that well watching the film you may enjoy it, But you will have to suspend your believe in reality slightly. The cars and the action in this Film is just as ridiculous as it always is, With tons of destruction and extremely nice cars all over. The action that takes place out of the cars is a bit better this time around but still just as unrealistic as the rest of the movie. Furious 7 does a decent job at being a action popcorn flick but don't expect much past that, The movie tries to have a big emphasis on "Family" But doesn't really make you feel much. All in all if you know what the Fast&Furious series offers you know what your getting into,It's Fun for a weekend flick with buds but not something you'll watch over and over.… Expand

After three mediocre installments ('F+F', '2F 2F' & 'Tokyo Drift') and one that no one remembers ('F&F 4'), one could think that they were going from down to low. But, 'Fast Five' and 'F&F 6' things really begun to take flight. And, I never thought I'd say this, but "Furious 7" is a damn fine action film. It unashamedly defies logic, but the quality of the action sequences is stunning. And, there's no way you won't get the goosebumps in Paul Walker's first and final scene. "F7" is somewhat darker and grimmer, and there's something about James Wan's direction that makes the film breathe, unlike many of its peers. It's thrilling, exhausting and a heck of a lot of fun.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie is easily one the #1 best F&F movie I've ever seen in my whole entire life.
PROS:
- The action sequences is top-notch to watch especially when you see Vin Diesel, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Jason Statham, Kurt Russell, Ronda Rousey, and the last Paul Walker in action.
- The visuals still rocks!
- The characters in the latest movie knows how to stay loud and proud after P.W passed away, but on the otherhand familiar faces from past F&F films appear in this movie and that is great how Chris Morgan and James Wan did to make this movie all about the Fast & Furious family.
- At the end of the movie was emotional that it made everyone and including myself pained after watching this honorable tribute video of Paul Walker and honestly it was great that the guys from Universal made a CGI of Paul Walker in the latest F&F installment and that what makes this F&F special.
CONS:
- Different story with same elements
- Cheapy OST composing by Brian Tyler
VERDICT: 9.5 Honestly I can't put a 9.5 on the rating scale, but I'll add .5 boost off to a 10 because this is the best F&F movie I've seen since FastFive and this latest installment is all about family and it gave a terrific one last ride farewell to Paul Walker.
To Paul...

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The whole gang, i mean family, is back again with new faces to join the mayhem. Fast & Furious 7 begins when Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) sets out for revenge against Dominic Toretto and friends for their part in his brother's downfall in London.

New additions like Kurt Russell, Tony Jaa, Ronda Rousey, Djimon Honsou and Jason Statham are given their moments of action but feel wasted, especially Statham as his hand to hand combat scenes were poorly shot. So it's the sensational (and well directed) vehicular warfare that everyone will remember.

Although not uncomfortable, scenes with Paul Walker were certainly distracting as i couldn't help but think where body doubles and CGI were involved. The death of the actor last year certainly changed the direction of this film and at times you can feel it. The story is passable, but not as engaging as the last entry in the series or Fast Five. It relies on insanely high amounts of adrenaline and testosterone to remain entertaining for the surprisingly long 140 minutes runtime.

The ending did get me all teary eyed with it's poetic tribute to Paul Walker, a perfect sendoff which fans will appreciate. If you like your action films big, crazy, silly, with extra cheese, Fast and Furious 7 will not disappoint.… Expand

Now the film hasThere is no denial that Furious 7 has been one of the most anticipated films of 2015. With a legacy of 15 years, Furious 7 manages to still come out with a fresh and fun concept, while capturing the essence of the original. Now the film has some extraordinary action scenes and moments involving our favorite characters, however there were some big problems as well. But let’s be honest, all the bad stuff can be forgotten due to how great not only Universal Studios was, but also director James Wan (The Conjuring) and the entire cast was with the passing of Paul Walker and all that it entailed.
Now let’s talk about the movie. Furious 7 picks up right after the events of Tokyo Drift and the death of the character Han. This film is mainly a revenge story between Vin Diesel’s (Dom) character and Jason Stathan’s (Deckard Shaw). With that said, the film doesn’t focus much on that story, instead they focus more on the side plot. The side plot involved the capturing of an object by the name of “God’s Eye” that the team had to go after. This was a problem for the film since I’m sure the movie audience wanted to see more of Jason Stathan doing what he does best (Kicking Ass). Jason Stathan’s character was not the only one however, given little screen time. The Rocks character was also side swept because of the side story. Despite that though, he still had some of the best lines in the film.
Now let’s talk about Paul Walker! After his passing, the film had to work with what footage they already had of Paul. When production was at a halt, Paul’s brothers Cody and Caleb Walker were brought in, in order to film any extra scenes. During the film, there were definitely some scenes that the audience could clearly see that Paul had been replaced with his brothers. To me this was not a problem at all since they look extremely similar to him. Overall, despite the horrible delivery of lines from Ronda Rousey and Iggy Azalea, the film as a whole was a wonderful farewell and tribute to Paul Walker. It was an action packed film filled with great one-liners and an emotional ending that left me, and the audience sheading more than a tear.

Rey's Final Score: 7.8/10… Expand

This time, brother of Owen Shaw ( main villain of last film) comes for the revenge.He is taking down the crew members of Dominic ( Vin Diesel) which includes his family, one by one.Now it's the showtime for Dominic and his crew to find him before he finds them.Action superstar Jason Statham plays the role of Owen shaw's brother. Tony Jaa also appears in some of the fight sequences.

Direction is good.VFX & stunt department has done a good work.BGM with hip hop beats were nice.Though few scenes seems unacceptable and illogical, just remember the fact that without such scenes there isn't any fast and furious films.Instead of analyzing the different levels of acting from actors, I think it is better to analyze how did they do their stunt sequences and I must say they've done a pretty good job.

So, this film which is dedicated to Paul Walker, is fun to watch with its breathholding fighting and car chasing sequences.Couldn't blame if your eyes get wet at the end of the film.

My rating : 3.5/5

The action scenes are so crazy stupid and, considering the production troubles (because of the loss of Paul Walker), the film still held up pretty well. Not having Dwayne Johnson in it much was a bit of a let down, but, nonetheless, that ending made up for it (no spoilers!). My final thoughts on this would be:

After the series best FAST FIVE (2011, 7/10) and a degenerative FAST AND FURIOUS 6 (2013, 6/10), this time, the director chair has been delegated to James Wan, the master-hand behind SAW & INSIDIOUS horror trademarks, it is a sure-thing its box office will explode and achieve another series-high, but reckoning a story and cast overhaul is inevitable for its next move, let us take it as a sincere eulogy not only to Paul but the franchise itself.

If we'd live in an utopic reality, where Paul Walker would not have passed away, Furious 7 would've not been as successful as we can see now. Anyway, it has enough action, eye-popping sequences of thrilling stunts and a truly satisfying result.

The script is tongue-and-cheek, full of cheesy one liners that are almost always followed by a dramatic explosion or expensive stunt piece. For all of its ludicrousness, however, Furious 7 remains entertaining throughout its two-hour run. It isn't a serious film and its plot is mostly background to the stunt work. There is a warmth to its simplicity, even if you feel somewhat bombarded by the endless missiles, car crashes and steely Vin Diesel grunts.… Expand

There haven't been many in the series that I thought were really good. The first one is by far the best in my opinion and I believe that it has to do with the more limited budget forcing more realistic car sequences and more believable action. These types of movies need to get back to the type of chases that made Bullet and the French Connection chases classics that people still talk about.

I thought having Statham in this movie was going to raise the fight sequences to the quality of movies like The Transporter, but I was wrong. Statham's talents were mostly wasted as were Tony Jaa's. They could have easily been replaced by just about anybody and nothing would have been different. These guys really should have been on opposite sides of this fight so an epic clash could be filmed.

With Diesel doing voice acting in movies like Iron Giant and recently Guardians of the Galaxy, I feel like there is a very legitimate actor under all of that muscle that has been mostly overlooked or paired with bad scripts for most of his career. This is no real exception. All of the dialogue between him and Rodgriguez was cringe worthy and the filler dialogue between wasn't much better.

The only thing I thought this movie got right was the tasteful tribute to Paul Walker. The way they handled it brought satisfactory closure to the character but leaves it open for further installments. Although, at this point, I must say unless they are willing to up the quality of the writing and get back to more realistic action (which can be just as entertaining) they should just stop now.… Expand

Basically, it's a movie for teenage lads and boy racers - there's nothing wrong with that, but don't expect people judging a movie objectively to be "nice" to it. No brain, plenty of noise.

If you can get past the:
1. Poor acting,
2. Derivative plot,
3. Schwarzenegger-esque, endless, unsuccessful one-liner attempts by Vin Diesel,
4. Awful jokes
5. One long strung together cliched film device after another--pounded home...

Then there's some entertainment to be had here. The screenplay and story-boarding on this must have read like they were done by a 16 year old.

What you'll get, if by some miracle none of this draws you out of the movie (we went to an IMAX), is:
Some car chases
Some good, but not great explosions
Some ok fight sequences (definitely underutilized their creativity and talent here)
A showdown at the end.

This is around a Metacritic 55. The current 67 is by comparison, if you were required to sit through the prior 6 movies.
Fury, Blackhat, Hobbit, Unbroken, none of which were great, but all better, and rated lower.
Pick one of those and don't give this one your money.… Expand

The attempts at establishing a character motivation story are nothing short of laughable. The dialogue that's supposed to tell my why I care about these characters, and why these characters care about whatever they're doing, wasn't much more than a string of cliches and one liners.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"I don’t have friends. I got family".

"If you die, I die."

"Thought you could leave without saying goodbye?"

If the dialogue is in the movie to explain the action, that's fine. In this case, though, the writers are trying to make me care about the characters and it falls painfully flat.

To make matters worse, most of the actors in this film can't act. I recall the scene in which Kurt Russell is explaining to Vin Diesel why he needs to take this "one last job". Initially, Diesel's character doesn't want to participate in the caper, but Kurt Russell provides the right motivation to change his mind. However, had the sound been muted, I would never had known. I would have watched Vin Diesel stare angrily, with his most "badass" glare, for 60 seconds. There was no change in expression, no body language, no indication that Vin Diesel had any cognitive activity at all. Just words tumbling out of his mouth as he speaks and agrees to the job as if prompted by someone off screen.

I guess there was some romance, and some drama, too. I couldn't tell. Again, the acting was so poor, and the dialogue was so bland and incongruent, that the director needed to rely on the score to tell the audience how they should feel at that moment. Sad moment = violins. Romantic moment = violins and soaring strings. Even in the middle of one of the many thrilling action sequences, for the 4 seconds when a character glances at his or her true love while their lives hang in the balance, violins and soaring strings. I'm so happy the director gave me those audio cues to let me know that I'm supposed to feel something right then...

Speaking of the action sequences, they were mostly terrific. No longer is F&F about fast cars, it's a full-on action adventure series now. The action was thrilling to say the least. Well shot, well choreographed, and well stunted. Check your sense of disbelief at the door because so many of the stunts and sequences defy all logic and physics. Nonetheless, they were incredible and incredibly fun.

I would like to see more F&F films in the future. My advice, stick with the action and adventure stuff. The "feelings" stuff, it's just not your thing.… Expand

And why keep a psychopathic killer alive who causes over 50 deaths and one billion dollars worth of damage to Los Angeles- not enough imagination to come up with another evil villian for Furious 8? Catch the last two minutes if you want to pay your respect to a cool actor - you won't miss a thing.… Expand

I'm honestly glad that this is the first entry to the Fast & Furious series I've had the patience to see to the end. I am now acutely aware that there was nary a worthwhile cinematic moment I have missed in the entirety of thisI'm honestly glad that this is the first entry to the Fast & Furious series I've had the patience to see to the end. I am now acutely aware that there was nary a worthwhile cinematic moment I have missed in the entirety of this seven-film-long franchise. Don't misinterpret what I'm about to say. I'm not going to be broad or **** around what I mean to say so as to avoid making diehard fans of this franchise angry. This is a BAD movie. Not a good movie. Not an average movie. Furious 7 is a BAD movie. My brutality is warranted, I assure you.

I'll begin with the positives, however few and far between they are. The most laudable aspect of Furious 7 is it's unintentional hilarity. This is also it's most egregious flaw. When I am reduced to stifling fits of laughter during a moment pitched DEAD serious, something is wrong. On the other hand, I can't deny that I had a blast tearing this to shreds. This is a film that wears it's heart on it's sleeve, and I'm probably a bit to blame for being such a cruel . But with a script composed almost entirely of action-movie catchphrases (lines like 'Woman, I am the calvary') and the realism of an Uwe Ball film (I found five planes skydiving from a carrier jet a pretty tasty bit of ludicrousness) I would advise anyone going to see this try to see the mockable quality of Furious 7 as a beacon of humor in what is otherwise a stone-faced watch. Legitimate attempts at laughs are something else entirely, so juvenile, half-hearted, and plain unfunny that they feel awkward and embarrassing (I'm looking at you Tyrese. Just shut up).

Lin also manages to achieve fleeting instances of legitimate watchability. Some action scenes aren't too silly and some of the dialogue isn't ripe with cliches or bad jokes. The tone maintained throughout is refreshingly devoid of mean-spirited macho vibes, just idiotic ones. The only other mention of positivity I have is that Furious 7 doesn't offend too many sensibilities other than the cinematic. It's not homophobic or racist, like Michael Bay's films, it's just sexist.

All that aside, Furious 7 is a god-awful seemingly-endless pummeling of explosions and machinery smashing machinery. I wouldn't take up an issue with it if it were filmed with clarity or some sense of artistry. The audio is cacophonous as hell, almost to the point of inducing migraines. The storyline is so ripe with plot-holes, I can't begin to dive into how devoid of logic the procession of events in this film are. Vin Diesel and co deliver their dialogue with such a lack of a enthusiasm, even though I'm sure they were more emotionally invested in this outing over the death of Paul Walker, they fail to show it.

There is a memorial of Walker at the end that I should mention, which is a legitimately thoughtful, logical ending to his character's arc. It's fitting and respectful that he wasn't killed off. The recreations of Walker are noticeable, though. I appreciate the effort to sow him into the narrative, but you'll take note of his long silences and body doubles. It's a shame, both Walker's death and the repercussions it has on the franchise, particularly this transitional entry.

The melodrama that Furious 7 pitches at the audience is almost soap-opera-level over-the-top. We aren't invested in these characters, period, and the amnesia storyline (apparently introduced in the sixth film) is unforgivably preposterous. Beyond unbelievable, it's plain cliched and dull. Boring, to be honest. And I shouldn't have that feeling about a film that involves high-octane vehicles crashing into each other.

I refuse to accept that filmgoers should suspend their disbelief to the extent that Furious 7 demands them to. The fact that film critics have become so lenient to the point where films such as this garner higher aggregated scores than such films as Fight Club is appalling. There is better escapist entertainment out there if you feel like shutting your mind off and relaxing while imagery goes by without coherence. The dehumanization of female figures, inclusion of unfunny, awkward humor, lack of logic, and relentless vehicular mayhem make me feel like Michael Bay comparisons are not unwarranted, yet somehow not drawn by critics that refuse to demonize this level of thoughtless blockbuster entertainment. Avoid at all costs if you haven't yet seen a Fast & Furious film, if you already have, there's pretty much nothing to say.… Expand

Another marathon of muscles, explosions, product placements, and cars. I knew this movie was going to be bad, but it tries to hard to be The Fast and the Serious. They had a scene where one of the main characters "Dies" but come back to life, not because someone gave them CPR, but because of love... This kinda felt like a overly manly soap opera. The only actor I did like was Paul Walker but he was kind of over shadowed by all of the stupid one liners everyone else says. Oh and if you are a fan of the second one they bring the main character of that one back... To talk... Not to drive, but to talk to another person for like two minuets. Also racism, I can imagine the writes being like "Guys what can we have the two black guys say that will make people laugh?... I know! How about they objectify one of the more interesting female characters! Genius!" All and all I feel like they are sucking the money out of this cash cow and people don't notice the drop in quality from the earlier films.… Expand

Who thought getting THAT guy would be a good idea for an F&F film?! At least the director for upcoming "Fast 8" has credits like "The Italian Job" and "The Negotiator" (setting aside "Straight Outta Compton", don't like where that would take "Fast 8"). There are many negatives here lamenting the two hours of life they want back, but I count myself fortunate for only losing 15-mins.… Expand

This movie is amazingly awful. It makes no sense, the acting is terrible, the dialogue is terrible, and the action is surprisingly terrible (shaky-cam, lack of focus, effects over actual choreography) as well. It really is a shame to waste money on making or seeing this movie.

Amazing foibles: Half CG Paul Walker is like watching a Japanese "real doll" placed in an action movie (sorry Paul). The camera angles and dialogue surrounding him is so surreal. I was so distracted by the efforts to pretend he was alive for the whole movie that I couldn't focus on the movie, not that you need to focus to watch this nonsense. Also, the plot makes no sense whatsoever. I can't even describe it. They try to find a device to just track down Jason Statham, yet he finds the crew at every other scene. Also, for some reason they need to drive cars out of a plane to reach a bus transport, yet Jason Statham manages to be at the same place without falling out of plane. Why did they need to do it? They didn't. This whole movie did not need to happen.

Vin Diesel is old, and just rambles on about family and the streets and other nonsense. HE WEARS A WHITE CUT OFF TO HIS OWN WEDDING. Classic Vin...

Also, they go to Tokyo as if there is no time interruption from Tokyo drift, yet the Tokyo drift actor is 10 years older than he was in that movie. They really think the audience is dumb as a couch.

This movie is just a series of scenes of people lining up for the camera and cars doing the same.

Rant over. Too much. Cant...… Expand

The acting is poor, the characters are pretty basic, there's nothing new in there, it has become simply annoying. They had Statham and Kurt Rusell but still their characters were badly constructed, The Rock should had way more screen time...And sorry to say this but i notice that CGI Walker was fake, but still i respect them for trying. Overall, don't expect nothing different, it's entertaining but pathetic. Just go watch it because of the last 5 minutes to pay your tribute to Walker and skip the rest...I really don't get why it has this score in Metacritic.… Expand

The stupidity overload was just too much in one movie.

There is way too much shaky cam and you can't see anything most of the time. At one point Vin decides to drive off a rocky mountain cliff to escape his pursuers. Just ridiculous.
Tony Jaa back in movies is the only bright light in the whole movie, but if we have to see tony jaa's talent wasted on garbage like this and shaky cam, no thanks.… Expand

This is the opposite of the Film Equalizer with Denzel Washington, were you can clearly see the combat, in crisp visceral detail. Not this BS!… Expand

On leur a démoulé un scénario à leur pleine demi-mesure, bien débilos et craignos avec des voitures qui volent... et qui roulent parfois.

On ne va pas énumérer la liste des invités, tout le monde les connaît et c'est même à ça qu'on les reconnaît. Ils ne savent pas jouer et affichent toujours la même tronche de cake du début à la fin, quels que soient les dialogues qui sentent les pieds : tu pourrais regarder le film en marche arrière, tu verrais pas la différence.

La mise en scène est à leur démesure, c'est-à-dire très agitée, un peu comme les pétasses qui remuent leur boule au second plan, car il faut toujours mettre en valeur quelques carrosseries avec des bonnasses et autres prostiputes de luxe. A cet égard, on ne voit pas beaucoup les femens ou autres feminazis se bouger le derche pour dénoncer l'objectification de ces pauvres bécasses sur le grand écran : venez dénoncer sur #pourquoi-tu-balances-ton-boule-de-poufe à côté de caisses de jackys con-duites par des débiles !

Mais je digresse : on a donc un filmage ultra-cut zoomé avec caméra qui tremble et ce ne sont pas un ou deux plans au ralenti sur de l'image de synthèse pas fraîche qui traverse les immeubles qui vont nous contredire. En outre et de surcroît, c'est bien trop souvent mou du genou sur les deux heures que dure ce show à mongolos : c'est très pénible de les voir essayer de parler. Presque aussi pénible que de tenter de tout regarder... sans accélérer !… Expand

Or we have a car (again!) being trapped by many soldiers with superguns. How the driver will be saved? By falling from the cliff which is behind! Thousands of rocks and other stuff are being throwed to the driver, but finally he is saved with a MAGIC WAY! I definitely NOT recommend this movie.… Expand
