This is one that many will disagree with. I can appreciate that the Fast & Furious series hasnt run out of steam yet. The last film, Fast Five, was widely praised by critics as an excellent action blockbuster. I wont disagree with them. Fast Five may well have been the best in its respective franchise (which is a noble achievement for a fifth instalment). But six movies is getting just a little excessive for the same basic concept. These films all ultimately deal with the same formula of expert drivers becoming involved in large scale heists. I cant deny that its been working very well; but if theres anything I learned from the Saw franchise, its that an amusing gimmick can go bad at the drop of a hat. The Saw series had still managed a little suspense and intrigue by the release of the sixth film. The seventh entry killed all of it with one terrible screenplay. The same characters and action plot devices cant keep working forever. A seventh film has already been green-lit which is an immediate indicator that the momentum is about to topple. Fast & Furious needs to go out with a bang before it embarrasses itself with one film too many.
