    The film delivers in taking the audience in a wild, fun-filled ride. Bringing us more enormous set-pieces and ridiculous action. The chemistry between Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson and Deckard (Jason Statham) was the highlight of the film. Leaving me to hope that the reported possible Hobbs spinoff will include a team-up of the two.

    My major issue with the film is that there feel as if there are no stakes for any of the main characters. No matter what happens I never felt as if any of them were in any real danger. Also at times, it feels like you're watching two separate films. The Cipher-Dom storyline brings a darkness that has never been present in the franchise before while, the storyline with the rest of the team have the same fun tone and levity of the previous installments.

    Although the chemistry of the team is still feeling the loss of Paul Walker, overall the film is enjoyable. Bringing the fun and over-the-top action that we've come to expect. I would recommend people go see the film, especially if you're a fan of the franchise.
