Skeptical about this film. All their even numbered films suck (at least to me)
1. The Fast and The Furious: Good 2. 2 Fast 2 Furious: Suck 3. Tokyo Drift: Good 4. Fast & Furious: Suck 5. Fast Five: Good 6. Fast & Furious 6: Suck 7. Furious 7: Good 8. Fate of the Furious: ... Suck?
Should've ended at 7

The got the formula franchise right perfectly, finely tuned as they went one. Seems F8 is all furiously delicious (whatever that means)

Time to go see what this MX4D thingy is all about. not sure if I'm happy to be feeling Vin Diesel's sweat on my face. But that submarine scene had better be cold and windy!

So much adrenaline, so much fun. The hype is real. If you know what you want from this franchise, then I bet you will enjoy your ass off. But if you think this franchise is ridiculous in a bad way, and you trying everything to scrutinise it then its probably not for you. From the get go its all fast fast fun ride, there's not much break here. Furiosa is psychotic badass, it'll be more fun if she got some action like she did in Mad Max. The banter between the cast is so funny. You can see that they enjoying themselves making the movie. The action sequence is ridiculously fun and amazing. There's a few scene where I thought they could've done better with the CGI but other than its amazing and jaw dropping. I bet if they do make it to the space, they would make it believable. Hahaaa XD

Should've ended at 7 For me, I think I kinda enjoyed all FF movies except maybe no 3. The least fun movie in the franchise I think. With this latest installment I guess they're going to make more and more movies. I'm okay with it as long as its a fun ride.

First lets talk about the new 4D hall at MBO. Once you've tried it you'll never go to D-Box again. D-Box is considered kids stuff compared to 4D. Besides the usual seat rumbling you get to smell the engine (the smell kinda feels like its getting thrown right at your face and some people didn't like the smell), see a bit of smoke and sprinkled by a bit of water, blinking flashes when gun shots are fired, and feel a little wind near your ear as if bullets missed them by inches. for some reason your legs will also get tickled. Definitely something you should try at least once... and never again, just like D-Box. It was alright but I still find moving seats too distracting. So yeah go give it a shot. The 3D was crap as usual because you hardly notice anything.
Now for the movie, I personally think its one of the better ones. If you enjoyed the last few ones with all the crazy action then you'll love this because you're getting the same thing. I thought the climax was amazing and those who are familiar with the series are in for a surprise. It also had a really touching ending which I thought was well done.
What the hell I'll give this a 5/5 for still having enough gas to be so entertaining.

Was planing to go MX4D but too bad screening in 3D, not comfortable wearing 3D glases thru my spectacle

I'm also wearing spectacles and it wasn't too bad. The 3D glasses look like normal spectacles (unlike those from IMAX which are huge) and really light and you don't feel much weight.

Think if to compare this to the bland action movies we're getting these days...it's a success. It's that likable dumb fun and not that spiteful Transformer kind of dumb. The action scenes are those artificial sugar high that means nothing more until the next movie able to outdo the last one. There are just to service the thrill and not the story. Charlize Theron a total waste of talent, your typical bond villain with no lasting impact. I do believe they need to change things a bit in the future otherwise it's getting close to the familiarity breeds contempt territory. It's only a matter of when people will grew tire of the exhaustive formula. So get on the hype train for 2 weeks until GOTG2 drops and this movie already a distant memory. Come May onward....almost every week gonna be a big release of one blockbuster or another.
