It's not remotely believable, but that doesn't really matter as this is all about OTT mayhem and humorous lines in between. Plenty of fight scenes add to the fun, although it's a shame about some of the performances, but generally this works. Hattie Vanessa Kirby is a part of an MI6 team on a mission to secure a deadly programmable virus.
They are attacked by the superpowered villain Brixton Idris Elba. Sole survivor Hattie manages to escape and takes the virus with her by injecting the capsules into her hand. She is framed for the massacre and the thief of the world ending virus. The CIA recruits two outside operatives to retrieve her and the scientist who designed the virus. I like the first half. It's a fun superhero Avengers movie. The Rock and Statham have charisma to burn.
Vanessa Kirby is intriguing and Idris Elba is a great actor. It seems set to be a fun ninety minutes popcorn movie. Somewhere along the line, the movie loses momentum and goes into slow motion action mode for the worst. I know exactly the moment. It's the torture scene. Like Brixton says, these guys are never going to turn. The whole exercise is futile.
If the villains kidnapped Hobbs' daughter and figured out that Hattie is Shaw's sister, turning them may get interesting. The writing is never that smart. As for being smart writing, I have an issue with the virus. The movie needs an opening scene where the MI6 team is introduced to virus. The virus needs exposition. Then I couldn't figure out why Hattie wouldn't simply cut off her hand and burn it.
It kept nagging me for the rest of the movie. I know it's silly to nitpick this movie but it's annoying when an obvious solution is being ignored. Finally, two hours is way too long. Blowing up the evil base is plenty to close out the movie. It needs to end. This is not worth two hours. This movie is fine until it's not. With every movie studio needing a franchise these days. It's a bloated mismatched buddy movie.
The target is find a rogue agent called Hattie Vanessa Kirby who has stolen a virus. It turns out that Hattie is Deckard's sister and she was framed by a cybernetic enhanced baddie called Brixton Idris Elba. Brixton was once left for dead by Deckard.
Now he is after Hattie. Deckard and Hobbs need to get the virus out of Hattie before it's too late and keep her safe from Brixton. There are comic cameos from Kevin Hart and Ryan Reynolds.
David Leitch. More like this. Watch options. Storyline Edit. Nothing is stronger than family. Did you know Edit. Goofs In the scene where a hand grenade is used as a booby trap in Shaw's sister apartment, we see the pin get pulled and the lever separate from the grenade. A few seconds later Shaw put the pin back in the grenade "making it safe.
It would have blown up in his hands as the primer would have been activated. Crazy credits 2 mid-credits scenes with Ryan Reynolds, and one post-credits scene with Hobbs getting his own back on Shaw, for his airport stop 'n' search.
User reviews 1. Top review. Not a masterpiece, but entertaining AF! Like I said, it's not a masterpiece, and it certainly has some problems, but the movie knew exactly what it needed to be and what it needed to do and it did it well. Statham, Johnson, Ilba and the rest of the cast all did a pretty good. The action is over the top but entertaining and exiting. At some points the movie got a little to repetitive and cliche for me, and some of the jokes and skits were a little bit weaker than others, but like I said this movie is not the one made to be a masterpiece, or to be analysed for messages or deeper meaning, its just a dumb summer movie but a really good one at that.
