But it didn't hit as much as it should have and some of the one liners are incredibly cheesy. The script has it's fun dialogue in it especially with some of the rocks dialogue and occasionally the drama was okay. However, this film really fails at the team element that I thought the last one succeeded at and I just feel it didn't have enough depth to it. The story has some good emotional weight to it that involves Dom and his story you do care about him. Tyrese Gibson is ridiculously over the top in this film and I found him annoying in this film and charlize Theron is just a pretty bland villain to be honest. Unfortunately, the rest of the cast are just not that interesting, Michelle Rodriguez just is pretty bland and I really didn't care about her situation. Dwayne the rock Johnson is also back as Hobbs and he does the best he can to elevate this film, he has so great one liners and also sells the action scenes. Jason statham is back as deckard shaw in this film as a reluctant ally and statham is great in the role, he adds a lot of humour to the role and is obviously great in the action scenes. However, I feel like his character got way to much focus and I do feel like he goes on to his usual stoic self which takes away from the latter parts of the film. Vin diesel returns as Dom in this film and he gives one of his better performances in the film as Dom is given a lot of emotional weight to his performance and you end up caring about him. The premise of the film sees Dom toretto turn on his team to work with a cyber terrorist, this sees the team have to track him down and stop him. So I had some excitement for this film and unfortunately it is a disappointment even though it does keep up some of the excitement.

I started watching this franchise with the last film furious 7 and I enjoyed it for what it was a fun ridiculous action film. Now, they must unite to bring home the man who made them a family and stop Cipher from unleashing chaos.

They soon face an unexpected challenge when a mysterious woman named Cipher forces Dom to betray them all. With Dom and Letty married, Brian and Mia retired and the rest of the crew exonerated, the globe-trotting team has found some semblance of a normal life.
