It's reunion time. Fast and Furious goes back in the day revisiting the setup and genre that made the enterprise what it is today.

What's it about:

Dom Toretto (Diesel) and Brian O'Conner (Walker) join hands to fight a common enemy a Mexican druglord Braga (John Ortiz).



Of course, it isn't as simple as it sounds, as both Dom and Brian have huge trust issues. After the past betrayals and fallouts, it takes more than just one murder for them to reunite.u00a0

What's hot: The machines are hotter, sexier and faster than the first three chapters.

Diesel and Walker coming back together reprise memories and set up scenario to weave an interesting plot.

The action scenes are tighter and the background score adds up the fuel to the chase sequences.u00a0
u00a0
What's not: Throwing logic and reason out of the window, the director steers clear of any attempt to bring clarity to the plot.

Scenes where the cars chase one another in a tunnel remind one of Grand Theft Auto rather than something you would see on the big screen.

Some scenes use CGI and effects to give a feeling of reality, but fall flat.

There isn't any scope on the acting front with both Walker and Diesel walk ing around like robots showing off their brawny bodies substituting them for emotions.u00a0
u00a0
What to do: With enough style to dazzle a ramp walk, the film lacks in substance. If you are fan of the series, you'll watch it nevertheless. We only wish there was more fire to the fuel of this machine.
