According to our review, The Fast & Furious franchise has been known for its high-octane action and adrenaline-pumping car sequences. However, with each subsequent sequel, the films seem to be losing their grip on the core elements that made them so popular.

According to the film’s plot:
Over many missions and against impossible odds, Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his family have outsmarted, out-nerved and outdriven every foe in their path. Now, they confront the most lethal opponent they’ve ever faced: A terrifying threat emerging from the shadows of the past who’s fueled by blood revenge, and who is determined to shatter this family and destroy everything—and everyone—that Dom loves, forever.
In 2011’s Fast Five, Dom and his crew took out nefarious Brazilian drug kingpin Hernan Reyes and decapitated his empire on a bridge in Rio De Janeiro. What they didn’t know was that Reyes’ son, Dante (Aquaman’s Jason Momoa), witnessed it all and has spent the last 12 years masterminding a plan to make Dom pay the ultimate price.
Dante’s plot will scatter Dom’s family from Los Angeles to the catacombs of Rome, from Brazil to London and from Portugal to Antarctica. New allies will be forged and old enemies will resurface. But everything changes when Dom discovers that his own 8-year-old son (Leo Abelo Perry, Black-ish) is the ultimate target of Dante’s vengeance.
Fast X was released in theaters on May 19 by Universal Pictures. The film has grossed $512 million at the worldwide box office. making it the fifth-highest-grossing film of 2023. Within this total, it earned $110 million from the domestic box office and an additional $402 million from the international box office.
‘Fast X’ will be available on various digital platforms, including Amazon Prime Video, Vudu, Apple TV+, and Google Play Movies & TV, on June 9, 2023.
