F9: The Fast Saga - Director's Cut [DVD]

Love this movie saga.

I have to admit when I first saw this in the theaters. It was my least favorite. I just thought the backstory stuff was silly and I didn’t love John Cena’s character. Not to mention a bit of a slow middle. But now seeing it a third time after purchasing the Blu-ray, I can say that it’s one of the best ones. It’s solidifies as Dom Toretto as one of the greatest and most complex action heroes to exist. Forget about the rock. The rock is one dimensional and all the characters he plays Have to be tough, sarcastic, and flawless. But Vin Diesel portrays Dom in fast, nine as a flooded character, who is clearly traumatized after the last film. He’s opened up his heart now and is allowing himself to realize that he may have been too harsh with his brother. And then realizing the truth that he abandoned him when family is super important to him, strikes him as a huge blow. He regrets turning his back on his brother and ostracizing him to the point where he leads a life of espionage in crime. Where perhaps if they had bonded together and stayed strong, they could’ve led better lives. Either way Dan realizes his errors and does something the rock would never do. Show humility. It’s this vulnerability that makes fast nine special and gives it the emotional impact that it has. I’m also a bigger fan of John Cena since I saw this years ago, and absolutely loved him in fast X knowing where his character arcs towards. When he comes back at the end of nine spoiler alert and helps them defeat the bad guys. It’s a decision of humility made by two tough guys. But it’s these tough guys who show a perfect example of what a masculine man can be. Strong and protective, and also caring and forgiving.

With this one all there is to do is get the 10th one later. All on blu ray format. But great action car movies

Great way to spend an evening. Enjoyed watching these films in the comfort of my home.

Good

Really like the movie even though the outer space scene was a little corny.

I've liked all but 2Fast & Drift but this one was at best OK. I mean cars swing off cliffs on rope bridges, planes that catch cars, cars in space, magnets that can flip a street full of caes you get the idea. It went a bit too far. We do see Han and learn how he's alive. Meet Dom's brother. Learn a lot about Dom growing up. Shipers back too. It has great parts and VERY BAD parts.

Good movie
