Furious 7 Review: 15 Reasons It's The Best In The Series

14. Kurt Russell Gets His Best Role In Years

Fans of classic 80s action rejoiced after Kurt Russell earned a supporting role on the Furious 7 roster, and he certainly didn't disappoint. Playing a shady intelligence agent referred to merely as Mr. Nobody, Russell has more fun on screen than he has in years, sucking down Belgian ales and hilariously trying to convince Dom to give it a try, but of course, he's partial to Corona. The legendary actor gets probably the meatiest supporting role in the entire movie, and the part was clearly written with a celebrated performer in mind, given how Russell gets the majority of the movie's best lines. Considering how little he's worked over the last decade, this is just a joy for his fans, and hopefully the filmmakers will find a way to write his character into Furious 8.
