IN THIS CASE I WILL TALK ABOUT ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES,
SINCE IT IS DIVIDED INTO SEVERAL PARTS, IT IS MORE THAN A
SUMMARY OF EACH ONE OF THEM.
"FAST AND FURIOUS" (2001): THE FIRST FILM FEATURES DOMINIC "DOM" TORETTO (PLAYED BY VIN
DIESEL) AND BRIAN O'CONNER (PLAYED BY PAUL WALKER). DOM IS AN EXPERT IN UNDERGROUND
RACING AND BRIAN IS AN UNDERCOVER POLICE OFFICER TRYING TO INFILTRATE HIS GANG TO TAKE
DOWN A CAR THEFT RING. HOWEVER, BRIAN FINDS HIMSELF DRAWN INTO THE LIFE OF DOM AND HIS
SISTER MIA (PLAYED BY JORDANA BREWSTER), LEADING TO PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL CONFLICTS.
"2 FAST 2 FURIOUS" (2003): BRIAN MOVES TO MIAMI AND TEAMS UP WITH HIS OLD FRIEND ROMAN
PEARCE (PLAYED BY TYRESE GIBSON) TO TAKE ON A LOCAL DRUG DEALER WHILE AGAIN WORKING FOR
THE POLICE. ALTHOUGH DOM DOES NOT APPEAR IN THIS FILM, HIS SPIRIT IS STILL PRESENT IN THE PLOT.
"THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: TOKYO DRIFT" (2006): THIS FILM FOLLOWS SEAN BOSWELL (PLAYED BY
LUCAS BLACK), A YOUNG RACING DRIVER WHO MOVES TO TOKYO AFTER GETTING INVOLVED IN ILLEGAL
RACING IN THE UNITED STATES. IN TOKYO, SEAN DELVES INTO THE DRIFTING SUBCULTURE AND CROSSES
PATHS WITH LEGENDARY RACER HAN SEOUL-OH (PLAYED BY SUNG KANG). THE PLOT CONNECTS TO THE
MAIN SAGA LATER.
"FAST & FURIOUS" (2009): BRIAN, NOW WORKING FOR THE FBI, ONCE AGAIN TEAMS UP WITH DOM
AND HIS TEAM TO STOP A DRUG DEALER WHO IS ALSO INVOLVED IN THE MURDER OF LETTY ORTIZ
(PLAYED BY MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ), THE DOM'S GIRLFRIEND. THIS FILM MARKS THE RETURN OF
SEVERAL MAJOR CHARACTERS FROM THE FIRST FILM AND SETS THE STAGE FOR FUTURE SEQUELS.
"FAST FIVE" (2011): THE GANG OF DOM AND BRIAN REUNITES TO CARRY OUT A DARING ROBBERY IN RIO
DE JANEIRO AND ELUDE PURSUIT BY A UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT AGENT NAMED LUKE HOBBS
(PLAYED BY DWAYNE "THE ROCK"). JOHNSON). THE FILM IS KNOWN FOR ITS SPECTACULAR ACTION
SCENES AND STUNTS.
"FAST & FURIOUS 6" (2013): DOM AND HIS TEAM COLLABORATE WITH HOBBS TO STOP A DANGEROUS
GROUP OF MERCENARIES LED BY OWEN SHAW (PLAYED BY LUKE EVANS). IN THIS FILM, IT IS ALSO
REVEALED THAT LETTY, WHO WAS BELIEVED TO BE DEAD, IS ALIVE BUT SUFFERING FROM AMNESIA.
"FURIOUS 7" (2015): THE FILM FOLLOWS DOM AND HIS TEAM AS THEY FACE OFF AGAINST A RUTHLESS
KILLER NAMED DECKARD SHAW (PLAYED BY JASON STATHAM), WHO SEEKS REVENGE FOR WHAT
HAPPENED IN THE PREVIOUS FILM. THE PRODUCTION OF THE FILM WAS AFFECTED BY THE TRAGIC
DEATH OF PAUL WALKER IN A CAR ACCIDENT DURING FILMING, WHICH LED TO CHANGES IN THE PLOT
AND THE USE OF SPECIAL EFFECTS TO COMPLETE THE CHARACTER OF HIM.
"THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS" (2017): IN THIS FILM, DOM BETRAYS HIS TEAM AND TEAMS UP WITH A
MYSTERIOUS WOMAN NAMED CIPHER (PLAYED BY CHARLIZE THERON), SETTING OFF A SERIES OF
EVENTS FILLED WITH BETRAYALS AND UNEXPECTED TWISTS.
FAST AND FURIOUS: HOBBS & SHAW 2019 HARNESSING DWAYNE JOHNSON'S
"STAR POWER" (AND HIS BEHIND-THE-SCENES CONFLICTS WITH DIESEL), THE
'FAST & FURIOUS' FRANCHISE DELIVERS ITS FIRST PROPER SPIN-OFF WITH
'HOBBS & SHAW'. THIS FILM CAPITALIZES ON THE CHARISMA OF JOHNSON AND
STATHAM TO MOVE THE ACTION OF THE SAGA TO PROPORTIONS CLOSER TO
SUPERHERO CINEMA, THANKS TO THE VILLAIN WITH CYBERNETIC IMPLANTS
BRIXTON LORE (IDRIS ELBA).
