Fast Five (2011)

The Engines race and its pedtal to the metal
in the 5th installment of the wildly popular
and sucessful Fast and the Furious Franchise!

Picking up where the fourth left off
(The movie actually starts at the ending
of the fourth as you see the out come of
the 4th again) and then we get sent to
beautiful Rio where we find people have
moved on, Have new lives but a job brings
everyone back together.

The whole train sequence was very cool
this series still manages to pull off the most crazy stunts and make it
all look so easy. I have to wonder if Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel)
is a descendent of Captain Jack Sparrow (LOL!)
But after the train job goes not as planed and the team comes under fire
from a vicious crime lord while also being blamed for crimes they didn't
commit they have to out run and out smart a special forces leader
(played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) who has been brought in
to take down Vin Diesel and Paul Walker's characters once and for all.

With a race against time to take down the crime lord and take everything
he has while at the same time out maneuver The Rock.
Do Dominic (Diesel) and his team have enough horse power? or are
they going to be left with their wheels spinning when this final job
goes from Mission Impossible to Mission Freaking Insanity?

Personally I loved this movie I thought it was fast, fun and exciting.
this is how you make the "Fast" movies work by going back to what made
the original so good. The main cast with some new faces along the way.

have plenty of action the fight scenes were pretty amazing especially
the one with Vin Diesel and The Rock I enjoyed that very much.
It was truly excellent.
Now that The Rock fought Riddick we have to get him to fight
a Predator! wouldn't that be awesome?

anyway the fights I really enjoyed and the stunts were also very
impressive its like they think "what crazy thing can we pull off next?"
Like I mentioned the whole train sequence was equally impressive
if not more so was the towing of the huge safe through the city.
That whole sequence was very wow inducing there much have been
alot of CG used for that I would think.
But all in all I enjoyed this. The story was pretty good
I felt there was some more character development and showing
some more of there pasts. There was also some good humor that
should give you a laugh or 2.
Also The Rock did a very good job in this. He was good in this role
as a cop that was very good at his job, but in the end his is like
Walker from the end of the first movie.
Now like I said I really enjoyed this, If you are a fan of the series
or just want something that is fast, fun and wild that this for a spin.

Also stay tuned for after the credits for an extra scene
that might lead to a ghostly return of someone who
was thought to be dead.
