Oh boy. Once again we leave our brains at the door as Hobbs
(Dwayne Johnson) has Dom (Vin Diesel) and Brian (Paul Walker) reassemble their
crew in order to take down a mastermind who commands an organization of
mercenary drivers across twelve countries. Payment? Full pardons for them all.
Our reward? Another breezy barrage of brilliant car chases and cheesy
one-liners as our favourite herd of hirelings smashes its way through the
streets of London and Spain.
Only the stuffiest of people will find reason to complain. We can’t deny it has its flaws, and it doesn’t quite
match Fast 5 for conflict or action, but by adding a flying headbutt, the most
ridiculously cool mid-air snatch and a tank to proceedings, we’ll forgive any
shortcomings. The Fast franchise has become one to savour, so by adding a
welcome cameo at the end of this instalment we are once again looking forward
to another brainless actioner with some of the best car chases and banter you
are ever likely to witness. Tej Parker sums it up perfectly; Fast 6 is awkward but
sexy as hell. DW
