The tomorrow war was pretty good I thought. Decent story with good action scenes. One or two scenes were a little far fetched and the twist was easily seen coming. But over all it kept my attention and interest.

On to Fast 9. This is by far the cheesiest one. The stunts are so far out of reality that it's almost a comedy instead of an action film. Very disappointed in John Cenas performance and character. This plot gives you a back story...when Dom's father gets killed. No Hobbs, no Shaw, but Hellen Mirren is still hot af. In one fight scene, Dom and his bro fight and they are all bloody....then in the next scene...they are all cleaned up. They build a Pontiac fiero to fly in space and use the steering wheel to steer it....in space.

Don't pay to watch this movie. The wife and I were laughing in scenes that I don't think the filmmakers meant for people to laugh at. It's just silly stupid with the same jokes and one liners with a huge grill out at the end with a blue Nissan skyline pulling up...end movie.

I've taken better shits that have been more entertaining than this.

I actually loved The Tomorrow War. It was just fun and it clearly was a mix-mash of various past movies, but they did a good job of making it their own. I also loved how every gun fight scene was full cyclic with no apologies for it and it worked. There was also a good addition of some real tactics which I always appreciate (mainly referring to the end where they do the "moving/move" commands together and Chris Pratt utilizes a number of proper tactics throughout the movie. I also appreciated that it wasn't a short movie either at over 2hrs long and they hashed out the movie while trying to cover the plot holes. Ultimately, it's like why didn't they just go back initially and try to do what they did at the very end by finding the source but I guess everyone thought they came from somewhere else in that time so that sort of makes sense.

Ehh tomorrow war was pretty lame to me. Story line was kinda cool at first but had super cheesy scenes and the plot turned into every other human v. alien movie.

just my opinion. Also haven’t seen a F&F movie since #2 lol

Edit: the country hick boy from Tokyo drift is a mad rocket scientist in this one. Between a flying fiero and super magnets that can pull cars through buildings....it's a comedy.

Oh and I love the long dramatic look someone gives when they say "Dom sent me"

Can't wait for F&F 10. Oh boy then I can say suckers to everyone leaving the theater. They should of wrapped everything up with 7 and call it a day. But like a trainwreck it just keeps going and going with no end in sight.

The fact that people are still paying to see the fast and furious series after all these years kills me inside.

people need to stop paying to see that shit so finally let that shit series die. It’s gonna end up like call of duty, they just keep making the same garbage over and over because people keep paying for it.

The F&F series really went hard into left field after the first couple. But bigger then that is the fact i am not going to watch that dbag John Cena after the China pandering BS. John Cena and the whole F&F franchise can go **** themselves.

Imagine thinking to fight that war you need to send every uncle Jim and Karen to the future rather than just use global resources and science to prepare for the initial attack...

Guess if it made sense the movie wouldn't exist but I just can't follow along with such a stupid ass story

yaaaa, most action movies I just leave my brain in a jar on the counter and turn the volume up. That won't work for FF though, it would be screaming "WTF is this shit" from across the house

Can’t wait for FF10 where they travel back in time to rescue Marty Mcfly who got lost while doing a side gig for Jaba the Hut before he realized Jaba is a bad guy. Now Jabas goons are looking for Marty, but here comes Dom and the crew with light sabers they jacked from the Starship Enterprise.
