Furious 7 (2015) - One Last Time, For Paul.
 |
| ★★☆☆☆ |
I’m not allergic to any ‘Fast’ or ‘Furious’, but not a fan of it
either. I unintentionally jumped right into ‘Fast 5’ and ‘6’ that turned out
just okay. I don’t like or dislike them. In ‘Furious 7’, the story is as plain
and decorative. The actions now are much more daring and exaggerated than ever
before. That’s why they appear to be so preposterous to me. The only thing not
bad about it is the cameos like Jason Statham, Kurt Russell, and even Tony Jaa,
but y’know they don’t have much show time. I thought ‘Fast 6’ would be my
goodbye to the series, but since Paul Walker’s sudden death, I’d felt like I
should pay him a tribute anyway by checking it out one last time!
To be honest, I don’t feel for most part of the film, but I do feel
for the ending and the song that goes with it, where two cars travel side by
side but then go in separate ways. The thing is, we never learn to treasure anything
till we lose it. We never take Paul Walker or his role seriously till he’s gone
forever. It’s like we never seem to know what this life’s for at all till the day we
lose it. What a shame indeed that it’ll be just all too late when we finally get to
know it!
