katikatI watched Fast Five this afternoon, together with my mom - she loved it, BTW ^_^ - and wow, the 2nd time around it was so, so much better. Even though I knew what would happen, I was glued to the screen! What an amazingly paced action movie. No wonder Justin Lin is Hollywood's new "black" and Universal's already planning not just FF6 but FF7! This is their best franchise. FF5 earned over $600 mil. worldwide, with a budget of $125 mil. only! Wow.
Sure, the movie's not as slashy as FF4 was, yet the relationship between Dom and Brian feels even deeper. They're now basically brothers-in-law and it's great to see them on the same side, Brian always having Dom's back, them just talking without snipping at each other...
And Mia! Mia was amazing in this movie. She rocked like a rockin' thing. Seriously! She made me so happy. If they wrote her that way from the get-go, I might've been her fan from the beginning. I actually liked this Mia much more than Letty, who always felt... rowdy (?) to me. I don't know if I'm saying it right but she just didn't feel like a woman to me anymore, more like a guy with breasts.
And the team! Loved the team. How they bickered, yet they were still one big family. The only character I didn't like was Vince. I didn't like him in the first movie and I didn't like him here. A very unlikable character.
I hope that FF6 will be just as good. But I would prefer a smaller team, so that the pace is different.
