In 2001, they started out as simple street racing highway robbers. Since then, they've loved, they've died, they've come back to life, they've saved the world probably. At long last, their story comes to and end...er...hold up...it's not the end? It doesn't even know the meaning of the WORD "end?" In any case, it's Fast X, and our engines are suitably revved for Dom and them (and some new faces) to race back into our lives.

Fast Five. TRAIN ROBBERY! 

The Fast & the Fugitive! Family on the Run, and the only thing that would make it better is Tommy Lee Jones. This week In fast physics, mass is determined by the density of the cool. Elena & Dom don't have sex onscreen, implying that their child is the product of Immaculate Domception. 

This episode's lesson:  "The worse the Father, the greater his right to name his child." 

Pour Guet-Apens, Sam Peckinpah retrouve Steve McQueen directement après Junior Bonner ! 

Le film raconte la cavale sanglante d’un couple de braqueurs qui tente de fuir leurs complices et la police. Bourré d’action, ce road movie nous entraine dans l’Amérique des années 70 pour finir au Mexique cher à notre réalisateur. 

Carte « Doc » McCoy, interprété par Steve McQueen, est un personnage taciturne, tout juste sorti de prison, épris de liberté et de vengeance. Il est l’une des incarnations archétypales du héros chez Peckinpah. 

On parle de ça dans Volte-Face mais aussi des films de braquage : Tuez Charley Varrick ! de Don Siegel et Fast 5 de Justin Lin ! 

Et aussi nos fameuses rubriques Cette année-là ! 🎬 et Envies 🎥 ... A écouter vite ! 

It’s the franchise detour that became a cult favorite and delivered one of the Fast series’ most beloved characters - #JusticeForHan! – but is this tale of a Gaijin among the drift kings actually good?
