The boys are back! Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham), brother of Owen Shaw who was killed by Dom (Vin Diesel) and his boys back in an earlier installment, is out for revenge. He is ready to take out the gang one by one. He shows up at the FBI offices and sends Agent Hobbs (Dwayne "Rock" Johnson) to the hospital. In steps "Mr. Nobody" (Kurt Russell) who heads up some secret government agency with a deal for Dom and his friends - if they can help him secure the "God's Eye" tracking program that has been stolen by an international terrorist (Djimon Hounsou), he will let them use it to track down Shaw and take him out. Brian (Paul Walker), Letty (Michelle Rodriguez), Roman (Tyrese Gibson) and Tej (Ludacris) are back in play. They track the "God's Eye" program around the world and end up back on their own stomping ground in L.A. With crazy car chases, eye-popping stunts and some parachuting cars, they work to get this program back and stop Shaw before he takes them all out.

I loved this movie. Of course, I am a big fan of the franchise and this one tops them all. It was very sad to see Paul Walker in probably his last installment of the Furious franchise. He is so good. The movie is non-stop car chases, scenic locales, crazy stunts and even a Predator Drone! There are some great lines, too. My personal favorite was when the Rock shows back up and Letty asks him "Did you bring the calvary?" His response "WOMAN, I am the calvary!" Ha!!! It runs just a little long, but it is never boring. And the tribute to Paul Walker at the end was the perfect way to close out the film. If you are a fan of the Furious Franchise, you won't be disappointed. Go see it and the bigger the screen, the better!
