Synopsis and review of Fast and Furious 10
It should be noted that if you continue reading, you will learn some spoilers from the movie. It all starts with a flashback to 2011, when Dom and his team took down Hernan Reyes' criminal empire in Rio de Janeiro.
What they didn't know was that their son, Dante, was present and saw his father being killed. Since then, he has been planning a lifelong vendetta against Dom and his kind, recruiting a group of mercenaries and hackers to hunt them down. His goal is to make them suffer as much as possible what he suffered: losing his family, a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye.
After twelve years, Dom lives a quiet life with Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) and their son Brian on a farm, far from the world of organized crime. However, his peace is interrupted when he receives an unexpected call from Roman (Tyrese Gibson), who informs him that someone is attacking his former allies all over the world.. Dom decides to get his team back together to find out who is behind it all and stop him before it's too late. His quiet life is over again and the past comes looking for him.
Thus begins a new adventure that will take them to different countries, from Italy to Japan, passing through Russia and Egypt. Along the way, they will meet old friends and even enemies, such as Tej (Ludacris), Ramsey (Nathalie Emmanuel), Han, Mia, Cipher or Magdalene Shaw (Helen Mirren).
They also have the opportunity to meet new allies, such as Rita Moreno (Brie Larson), a secret agent who will help them infiltrate Dante's organization.
Fast and Furious 10 is a film that delivers what it promises: fast-paced action, self-parodic humor and family thrills.. Director Louis Leterrier (The Incredible Hulk) knows how to handle the steering wheel of the heavy vehicle he has been assigned to drive and offers an impressive visual spectacle, with scenes that defy the laws of physics and logic, but that entertain for their cheekiness and pace.
The script was written by Justin Lin (who directed five previous installments), Dan Mazeau (Legend of the Samurai) and Gary Scott Thompson (creator of the saga). They don't get too complicated with the plot and focus on the characters and their relationships, giving room for drama, comedy and winks to the fans.
Thus, the cast is headed by Vin Diesel, who continues to be the soul of the franchise with his charisma and physical presence. His chemistry with Michelle Rodriguez is palpable and they both convey their love and loyalty to each other.
The cast continues with Jason Momoa, who embodies a formidable villain, with a menacing appearance and believable motivation. And Brie Larson is a welcome addition, with her strong, independent character.
It should be noted that Fast and Furious 10 is not a perfect film, nor does it pretend to be. It has some narrative flaws, such as some unnecessary subplots or some twists that feel forced.
It may also be repetitive or predictable for some viewers, as there are 9 previous tapes. But is a film that is honest with itself and with its audience, that knows what it offers and does it with passion and fun.. It celebrates the legacy of a saga that has marked several generations and is preparing to say goodbye with honors.
Conclusion
We can say that Fast and Furious 10 is a recommended film for action movie lovers, fans of the saga and those looking for a good time at the movies without getting too complicated. It is a movie that has a lot of action, humor, excitement and surprises. This installment pays tribute to Paul Walker and the entire Fast and Furious family.
