That Is A Movie I Am Going To See When It's Halfway Over On Cable*

[redbrunja]

So, I basically laughed the entire way through the trailer for the new Fast and Furious movie, which has Michelle Rodriguez in it? And I've hear rumors that she's one half of a badass couple?

Is this truth or is this fantasy?

Are some of the Fast & Furious movies worth watching?

Discuss.

I've seen 1 and 3, and I hear tell that 5 is pretty good.

They're absolutely popcorn cheeseball ridic movies, all macho cars and guns, and ladies in tight clothes.

I think that actress was in the first movie, but not the third? So I don't know what ship she's part of.

I have a general likable feeling toward the franchise. Each of the movies make a point to create insane, creative, positively unbelievable elaborate car stunts, often involving anywhere from three to five hundred cars, usually performed at the climax as part of a complex hiest or ruse or rescue mission or something. They're fun to watch like a circus is fun to watch: bright colors and whoopsie-daisey-there-goes-another-car!

'Like a circus' sounds like a good way to describe them. And that's kind of their appeal for me?
