It was a difficult decision, but I came to the conclusion that my favorite film in the Fast and the Furious franchise is the sixth film, Fast & Furious 6; and the worst is the third film, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. In the next paragraphs I will discuss what makes these films the best and what makes them the worst.
Fast & Furious 6 is the best of the franchise, because it has the most action. The director, Justin Lin brings in a lot
of sweet and classy cars in this movie, for example, a flip car, a tank and Dominic Toretto's 1970 Dodge Charger Daytona. Also, the writers integrated several comedic dialogue, mainly dialogue between Luke Hobbs and Roman Pierce. A scene that stands out the most is when Roman makes a rude remark to Hobbs about Mia hiding baby oil (in regards to Hobbs' shinny skin), and Hobbs replying to Roman to hide his large forehead. As well as, the film has a lot of fighting scenes, and some amazing car stunts.They also had a lot of fighting and also a
lot of scenes were there are cars that are doing crazy stuff. This is what makes Fast & Furious 6 the best film of the franchise, this far.
The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift is
the worst movie of the Fast and the Furious franchise, mainly because there are not many racing scenes. As I previously stated, a large reason why I love watching this franchise is because of the racing stunts, and this film lacks that racing element. Even though, the film is focused on drift races, I do not find the drift races as excepted. As well as there are less jokes and less action. Not only that, the story line does not follow with the first two films in the franchise. I only started to like this film after three times of watching it. In my opinion, this film is the most different than any other of the films in the franchise, therefore it takes patience while watching and it is highly suggested to watch the film a few times, before criticizing the film.
In conclusion, even the best franchise ever created has a less than perfect film. However, after the release of the seventh film, the story line of the the third film will finally make sense within the franchise. The films with the most action are my favorite, because I really enjoy the anticipation and excitement.
With deep sorrow, friends, family and fans have lost an amazing concern for, Paul Walker. According to several media channels, like TMZ, EW.com, Wikipedia and IMDB to name a few, quickly spread the news of Walker's passing on Saturday, November 30th 2013. It was reported that Walker died in a major car accident, when his car hit a tree and caught on flames while leaving a charity event. Walker, 40, left behind a daughter, family, his Fast and Furious family and million fans worldwide. He was best known for his role as Brian O'Connor in the Fast and Furious franchise. In an interview, Walker stated: "If one day the speed kills me, do not cry, because I was smiling."1 At least he died doing something that he
loved very much. On this day, we say good bye to a very talented and charitable human being. I am sure he will be missed and never forgotten, and his memory will live on forever. Paul Walker, rest in peace and thank
you very much for sharing your talent with the world and I will miss you. Farewell, Paul Walker, farewell!

I completely agree with you! Me, being a drag racer, I can see why you love the fast cars and the racing scenes, because I do as well! I love movies with action scenes because it always keeps me on my toes. I was shocked when Paul Walker passed away, it was so unexpected and devastating! I found out he also had a daughter and I couldn't imagine being in her shoes. Prayers to his daughter and family!
ReplyDeleteHearing about Paul Walker’s death was a complete shock! I’m not the biggest fan of the Fast & Furious Franchise, but I remember seeing the first three movies which were really cool. It’s sad that he’s leaving not only his family, but millions of fans across the world of this franchise, such as yourself. My heart and prayers go out to all these people. Rest In Peace Paul Walker.
ReplyDeleteI actually loved the third movie, drifting is very cool and takes skill to do it, its pretty hard but i agree it isn't harder then actually racing and going out full speed but in reality your going pretty fast and are challenging the laws of gravity because the car can flip or go out of control at any time.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you 100% my favorite film of the fast and furious series is also the 6th one, and for me the third is also my worst. The 6th film is so cool and has so many different and incredible cars you don't usually see in films. There was so much action and races which represents the fast and furious series. The third film had barely any racing and the cars were not that great, which in my opinion does not really represent the title that well.
