I love going to the movies, and these are two movies, at the end, while leaving the theater, was like "I will PURCHASE THESE day of RELEASE". Yes, they kill them ALL, and I mean ALL. Loved both of THEM.

I enjoyed John Wick more than any shoot'em up movie in the past two years. Equalizer would be top 5 easily. Both character put up with Zero, there is no "let's talk about this..." with some long winded proclamation. it's just "Bang" ...next!

When has this series ever been about racing? Sure there was a few racing scenes in 1 but the plot has never been about racing.

Not sure if I should give it a chance...There's a lot to forgive from Tokyo Drift.
Definitely, give it chance! I hate that Tokyo drift crap too! I wish that I never saw it ! These are a hundred percent better and nothing like Tokyo drift!

I'm just so happy that this one will not be a d Dodge commercial because that is all the last two have been ! Even though , I did love seeing the 2006-10 and 2011-14 chargers in the fast five but I didn't go and see fast and furious 6 with my wife and everyone else because they had the same cars from fast five like Dodge was paying them! But I see in this one they have old and new Camaro's ! Hopefully mustangs too and It wouldn't make sense for the Hellcat challenger not to make a appearance! Since vin diesel likes challengers!

I feel the series has gotten away from its roots. But then again it's kept it interesting. I'd like more ra

I got turned off during the first movie right about the time the words were uttered "not double clutching like you should".

I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters...
For those ten seconds or less, I'm free.

When I first saw the movie the Dodge Charger was the star not the other cars/imports

And on top of that, everyone said "NAWS".

I hate those movies.

Rant over, carry on.

the answer is probably never. The only time a real car guy movie will get made is if it is a documentary or an independent movie. there most likely won't ever be a real car guy movie where the cars are the stars bc it woouldnt sell to the masses. That is why the Fast series is so successful, despite how dumb they are, they attract the teen audience, they attract the alot of the gear heads, and they attract the action crowd.

Best real car guys can hope for would be a really long car chase. or go back and watch American Graffiti
