LMAO... that's in the actual movie?... *smh*
 
It was a bit of a letdown after how good the reviews were, for me, but it wasn't that terrible. Overall I enjoyed it. I don't think I'd even put it in my top 10 for this year though.
 
honestly I fuckin hated fast 6, watched it in theaters with some friends and they all love it, i no longer talk to them for this fact. it a was a piece of fuckin shit movie. anyone that praises the Fast and Furious series know nothing about good movies.

I loved FF6. In fact, I love every movie in the franchise, even with their faults, occasionally terrible dialogue, and cheesy CG. The Fast and the Furious (original) was extremely influential, and spurred me on to liking (and eventually loving) cars and the automotive industry.
 
Letty is one of the reasons why six is a tier below f-five. Cop Girl got robbed!

Exactly. The cheesey shit I could stomach because it felt like that's what they were going for but I can't stand Michelle Rodriguez, was hoping so hard she'd die again but she's like a cockroach or something. Just keeps coming back with her stupid face that always looks like she can smell sewerage.
 
OP is correct. Fucking awful. Where did they pull all those rocket grappling hooks from? Paul Walker stole a car from inside a plane, and suddenly had a grappling hook to save the day? WHERE DID IT COME FROM? Shit movie which takes itself too seriously.
 
Compared to the past Fast and the Furious movies before Fast 5, Fast 6 is a masterpiece. The action is great, the pacing is decent, the acting is abysmal, the dialogue is mediocre but they found a way to at least be somewhat self-aware and try to make it a thrill ride that isn't a complete mess.

The bad guy cars already had them and Luda made improved ones for good guy cars....

Unless that was only shown in the extended edition.
 
This movie was so wonderfully refreshing and hilarious. Some of my all time FAVORITE lines!

"You need to chill bra! You went from Shaggy to Scooby Doo!"

"Hey man! That could be mah forehead!"
"Nah man! Yo fohead aint that big!"

"Ah man! Yo can't flick a booger without hitting a camera in this city!"

"No bling bling? You obviously aren't BALLER enough."

"That aint a plane! THATS A FREAKIN PLANET!!!"

HEEEEYOHH!!

This is the best movie I have seen all year because its written like how I would write detective short stories back in school which I love.

"Ok so check this shit out! So they're gonna find a gun right? So then they will TRACE this gun back to a pawn shop ok hang on so then the pawn shop guy is gonna be all "Yeah word is this girl is a street racer." (Talking about letty! oh shit!)
So THEN they will go to this shop ok and the bad guys will be gone right? BUT! They find some paint or something and your thinking "Ah they are f'ed they got away. But then Rock is gonna fill us in and say "There is NEVER nothing!" right? So now your thinking "Whats he planning here??" on the ground and are all like "This is special paint and can be traced" shiiiiit! So THEN this paint leads them to road somewhere where they find an F'ING TANK! So your wondering "Why the f are they in a tank?" right, but don't sweat it cuz who gives a shit. Then they catch him! And….hang on thats kinda boring. Actually they catch him but THEN release him and chase him again IMMEDIATELY after they release him!"
Then there is a chase scene on a 5000 mile runway with jeeps just showing up on ramming duty like your playing Uncharted. Soo good.

And a brilliant twist!
Right when the bad guy is gonna escape, or i mean…uh. Let go, briefly. He says "You commin baby?" and your thinking "Naw man Letty aint goin no where. She's made her choice" but then the OTHER chick is all "Wouldn't miss it for the world" and walks over to the other side. Shooooot! What was he name again? Oh who gives a shit PLOT TWIST baby!


Easily some of the BEST WRITING of any movie all year.
For example:
There is even a part where the bad guy says to Paul Walker "Heh, your a dead man anyway. I'll tell you my master plan." amazing.

Regarding why the hell Letty is still alive:
"Well you see! They WERE gonna kill her and all but the guy changes his mind…but THEN changes his mind and goes to the hospital to finish the job right! And right before he is gonna end her she says "Who are you?"
and the dude says "What you mean girl?"
"I don't remember you?"
Amnesia!!! She can't remember! She is now a blaaaank slate baby! She can be molded! HEYOOOOH!!!

The best line in the entire film is:
"How did you know there would be a car there to break out fall?"
"…..I didn't. Sometimes you have to go on faith."
HOLY SHIT EPIC! I got goosebumps when he said that.

The movie then ends with them telling Rock they want their old house back and basically evict the single family tenants with 3 kinds going to school so they can move back in. Saweeeeeet. Oh right I forgot that they are LIVING in the house for what we can assume is a decent amount of time before the Rock comes back and is all "So its official! You get to stay here!" See the United States is so tight they let these maniac criminals live in this house while they took care of finalizing the details. Props for that.

See its SO awesome because its such shit it doesn't take itself seriously!

I'm framing this.
 
Holy fuck at that gif.

Vin Diesel flying before the car crashes has seriously ruined the movie. That's so goddamn hilarious.

There's a scene where Luda shows them off, and the improvements he's made to them, after he swiped them from that British dude that got killed(the guy who provided the Braga lead). The scene ends after Tyrese shoots the hook between Dom and Han, who were talking about the Camaro.
 
OP is wrong. Its a fun summer blockbuster. Nowhere near "atrocious"

Can't wait for Part 7 to see how they top it. RIP Paul Walker.

Actually let me correct myself. Gina Carano's acting was atrocious. But I give you nothing else.
 
I went to see the movie to have 120 minutes of mindless fun. I had exactly that, nothing more, nothing less. I'm got home satisfied.
 
I watched this for the first time last night on bluray, the extended edition. Yup it's fast and the furious, fast cars, girls, guns, and a shallow plot.

Man is that one long ass runway.
 
He's flying before the car even hits the rail :lol

My friend and I laughed our ass off when we saw this at the theater. Loved the movie, but this scene was so ridiculous.

I didn't even realize he left the car before it crashed until now. I now keep seeing the blue tights and red cape.
 
Fast and Furious 6 was one of the best movie going experiences. One of the only negative things that I can say about the film is that it didn't have a perfect ending like Fast Five did.
 
5 > 6, imo

Though the Luda alphabets line, Gal Gadot entering the Dead Zone and infinite plot runway were all hilarious and genius.
 
I thought the movie was atrocious too. The plot just makes no sense. I understand that it's a popcorn flick but you can't expect people to turn off their brain. The action and race sequences all fell flat except for 2 fight scenes - the one with the asian villain and the one with Gina Carano. Gina Carano was the only I cared to see of in that movie. I wanted to see the bodybuilder villain in action after seeing him in Dennis but he's barely in the movie.

What about the plot didn't make sense? It all seemed pretty straightforward to me.

Straightforward enough that everyone in the popcorn flick-loving audience can understand it perfectly, even.
 
I completely agree with the OP, I have very similar feelings. I liked FF5 although I didn't expect to, and FF6 was a big disappointment. The two main changes (for the worst) between the two episodes were :
- the antagonists. 5 was "big guys from team A vs big guys from team B". Both had their charm, they were all badasses and fun to watch. The antagonist in 6 is just boring, I can't even remember why he was there. "Diesel Vs the Rock" was a big appeal of 5, it definitely doesn't work as well when they're on the same team.
- the plan. FF5 was mostly about planning a theft, even if some things changed along the way. The only plan they had in FF6 was "the bad guy went that way, let's follow him with our cars !"
 
Anyone else think it was pretty fucked up how Shaw goes down the freeway with that Tank? He flatout eviscerates so many cars (and those inside them). Its REALLY disturbing not to mention it makes no sense for the character. Gotta love the PG-13 on this one...

They were driving in Paradise City, no people in those cars, no sir!

lol

Its just stupid. Here's a dude that wont kill someone with Amnesia, but has no problem becoming a psychopath and straight up murdering a bunch of innocent sunday drivers. Some of those cars may of had families in them or something.
 
The RT consensus for this movie is:



What kind of drugs were the reviewers and apparently 85% of viewers on that saw this movie and where can I get some.

I find this franchise completely entertaining and actually enjoyed the 5th movie more than I expected. It was with these feelings that me and some friends started watching the 6th installment and...Damn this movie is awful.

High-Octane Humor - The dialogue GAHHH the dialogue is cringe worthy. Now I am not saying the previous film was high art but at least the cast looks like they are having a good time. In Fast 6 even the actors look uncomfortable saying most of their lines and who can blame them with a script that has them saying things like:

"Plan B? We need a plan C, D, E. We need more alphabets!"

Tyrese Gibson is especially bad. The one redeeming aspect of the dialogue is Gina Carrao who is so awkward that they relegated her to expressing her reactions to any of the other characters with "concern face" or "jovial face".

"You've gone from Shaggy to Scooby. This is something we don't doooo."
Oh Luda you make me so sad.

Terrific Action Scenes - What Terrific action scenes? Where? Where are these scenes? You mean the tank part where Dom turns into stretch armstrong and slings himself into Letty or the plane that tries to take off on a runway over 500 miles long with CG puppets flying all over the place the best of those puppets being when the chick lets go of the car to do a slow mo back roll into fog and fire never to be seen again.

Ah that part was actually pretty great.

So, if any of the 85% that enjoyed this movie are awake right now please let me know what medications and spirits I need to mix and in what order to be able to find this movie a high octane roller coaster of a good time.

I think all of them are horrible but I have to suffer through them due to friends, girlfriend etc...
