...I saw the 5th installment of the Fast and Furious franchise with my daughter last night.
I can see why it broke the April weekend opening box office records.
It is really a lot of fun - constant action.
As one reviewer said, they do something really outrageous that makes you say "Wow!" and then they keep it going until you are so amazed you wonder how in the world they pulled it off.
Great popcorn movie.
I'd give it a B (not a great film per se, but a great example of the genre).
