Furious 7

Maybe this isn't the best film in the franchise. Maybe the best film in the franchise is Fast Five. What i do know is that I have the biggest emotional reaction to this film's ending, and that pushes it to #1 for me😭 This is another of the films that I worked at a movie theater during its run, and just like the previous installment, I made sure to make it over to the auditoriums by the time the ending started so that I could sing along to "See You Again" with Wiz & Charlie. Also, when I watched this at my theater's employee showing, my buddy and I were convinced that they were gonna kill off Brian due to Paul Walker's recent tragedy, so every dangerous action sequence Brian was involved with, we would say "this is it; this is where Brian dies 🫣" My heart was constantly skipping beats, especially during the car-tower-jumping scene. And speaking of that scene, I think I was so preoccupied with wondering if/when Brian would die that I completely forgot that Vin Diesel/Dom LIFTS A FREAKING CAR😂😂😂 Clearly this is where he becomes superhuman. Lol The final thing I wanna talk about is Jason Statham's villainous Shaw. Obviously, this is how they "forgive" his misdeeds, "he was doing it for family"; just like Dom & his crew were stealing electronics in the 1st film, but it was to provide for the family. So, it's just role reversals, except the family/crew isn't undercover to get close to Shaw. Gonna be very interested in seeing how Shaw & Han talk it out in Fast X though....👀
