I’m all about finding out whether I’m going to cry in the theater before I commit to a ticket. (Also, if I’m dragging my sister along I want to make sure it’s not going to be horrible. I’m just saying, out of four movies, they’re not exactly at a 100% awesome rate.)

SPOILERS FROM wikipedia:

How it begins:
O’Conner and Mia Toretto arrive in Rio de Janeiro expecting to find Dominic, but their friend Vince has not heard from him for weeks. Vince needs O’Conner and Mia to help on a job he had lined up for Toretto: stealing cars from a train.
(Yeah, that sounds about right.)

The Toretto Classic:
Hobbs refuses to let Toretto walk free, but cannot bring himself to arrest him, and so agrees to give O’Conner and Toretto a twenty-four hour head start.

I don’t even know what to say about this:
O’Conner and a pregnant Mia retire to a beach in the Pacific, where they are met by Toretto and Elena. While the women talk, O’Conner challenges Toretto to one final race with no pressure and no prizes to decide who really is the better driver.

***

Now this, I love:
In the United States, the title was simplified to Fast Five to avoid confusion with the Kung Fu Panda franchise, which uses the term “Furious Five”.
(Right? It’s an obvious move, because there’s got to be a *lot* of crossover between those target markets.)
