~Movie~ Fast Five

Oh. My. Goodness!!!!!!!! This movie ROCKED!!!!! I can't even begin to do justice to this movie. I am sitting here still on edge from it. It was friggin awesome!
There's going to be spoilers so watch out!
Well to start, they have everyone from previous movies. It was a Fast and Furious all star cast. But there was also some new faces that added to the splendor. Like The Rock. I am a big fan of Vin Diesel and The Rock. So, for me, having them both in the same movie was like hitting the jackpot! And I'll admit I was kinda worried about it. I mean these are 2 very big action heroes, yet they didn't seem to get in the way of each other's creativity or spotlight. They played well off of each other. And man wait until you see their hand to hand combat. There is one major scene where they just go head to head. And it was a sight to behold! I don't think I've ever been that pumped up for a fight scene in any movie I've ever seen in my life!
But, man oh man, the fights weren't the only spectacular thing. The car chases/races. Now this series has done a pretty bang up job when it comes to this area, but this was by far their best work yet. I don't even know how they could top the stunts they pulled in this movie. No joke! Now the whole premise of this movie is they are trying to steal 100 million from a bad guy in Rio. 100 mil that happens to be locked up tight in a 7x11, 18 inch thick re-enforced wall, pass code and palm recognition locked, safe. Oh and by the way, the safe is in a police station. Not exactly the easiest heist right? Wrong! They take an armored truck, bust down the wall into the safe room, attach steel cables to the thing, and drag it out with 2 smoking hot black Chargers. And the fun didn't end there! They pull this safe all through Rio, destroying everything, and using it as a wrecking ball for any enemies that got in their way. My heart was racing! And they pull off one of the most fantastic swicharoos I've ever seen with this safe. Holy cow!!!
I can find only one single thing wrong with this movie. One. And that's the fact that they said the F word once. There wasn't any sex or naked bodies (just a few scandalous outfits). You didn't see any blood or gore. It was just a downright action movie at its best. Its does not surprise me in any way that this has beat records and is the #1 movie in America (and I'm betting other places as well).
I was on the edge of my seat with exhilaration and excitemeant the entire time. You MUST go see this movie. I wish I had seen it in IMAX. That would have just made the experience SOOO much better. It is worth the box office fee. I promise you!

But that's just my opinion......
