Fast And Furious: Hobbs & Shaw - 7 Ups And 2 Downs

DOWNS...

2. Plotholes-A-Plenty

I know we've mentioned many times about the fun that this film is clearly having, but there are a fair few instances that simply do not make sense. While this didn't hamper my experience at the time one bit, it's sure to annoy those looking at this film for coherancy.

For example, and this is a relatively huge one, the entire plane journey from London to Moscow is absurd with the amount you need to suspend your disbelief. At this point in time the trio are wanted by pretty much EVERY ARMED FORCE IN THE WORLD (at least according to the amount of news coverage being shown in London) and yet manged to breeze through airport security like it was nothing. Hell even The Rock being detained is played off as a minor inconvenience, with "people like me" being the excuse for his release DESPITE HIS FAKE MUSTACHE BEING ABSENT WHEN HE RETURNS!

In fact as soon as they sit on the plane, all three members ditch their disguises, ONE ROW OF SEATS AWAY FROM AN AIR MARSHAL, WHO THEN TURNS AROUND AND TELLS THESE WANTED CRIMINALS THAT HE WANTS TO JOIN THEM, AND THEN THE BANTER HIM OFF LIKE HE'S NOT AN ACTUAL THREAT TO THEIR PLANS.

Sorry, lost my top a bit there. God it's actually causing me to see double, NO IT'S NOT IT'S JUST THAT THEY SPLICED TWO ROMAN REIGNS INTO THE ENDING BECAUSE GOTTA GET THAT VALUE FOR MONEY!

Phew. I'm gonna sit down. To be fair this didn't actually annoy me at all like I say, it's just hilarious the lengths you need to go to believe this.
