Fast and Furious V

 

 Fast and Furious V is a variety of thrill and action and   it's quite a sight, these two grappling, great bald heads thwacking together, treetrunk arms lavishly oiled and soulfully tattooed. The rest of the film sticks to the same aesthetic: all running and crunching, every line of dialogue orchestrated to within an inch of its life. But for all its absurdity and the family friendly bloodlessness despite the copious violence, it spins along very smoothly and efficiently.

Former cop Brian O'Conner partners with ex-con Dom Toretto on the opposite side of the law. Since Brian and Mia Toretto broke Dom out of custody, they've blown across many borders to elude authorities. Now backed into a corner in Rio de Janeiro, they must pull one last job in order to gain their freedom. As they assemble their elite team of top racers, the unlikely allies know their only shot of getting out for good means confronting the corrupt businessman who wants them dead. But he's not the only one on their tail. Hard-nosed federal agent Luke Hobbs never misses his target. When he is assigned to track down Dom and Brian, he and his strike team launch an all-out assault to capture them. But as his men tear through Brazil, Hobbs learns he can't separate the good guys from the bad. Now, he must rely on his instincts to corner his prey... before someone else runs them down first.

In order to prevent the lawless trio from being turned into roadkill before he can arrest them, Luke puts his pedal to the metal, and begins to rely more on his killer instinct than his police training.
