Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw

Like this film it was nice to see a spin off of fast and furious it was done well there were some dumb cameos and it felt kinda unnecessary to include all of Hobbs family in the film as well as shaws but other than that it was a good spin off I look forward to Hobbs and dantes.

A spinoff from the Fast & Furious franchise starring characters Hobbs and Shaw, Hobbs & Shaw provides entertaining banter along with great action scenes but is mostly wildly unnecessary in terms of the overarching saga. Despite its self containment it’s actually logical in its story, finally having the master spy and ex military bounty hunter go on a world stopping mission instead of a bunch of street racers. Idris Eldba is a good villain for the movie and Vanessa Kirby as Shane’s sister is a good addition too. However, beyond those two most of the other cast additions are extremely unnecessary and redundant and that’s where my main criticism is for the movie. Ryan Reynolds, Kevin Hart and whoever plays Hobbs brother add nothing to the story and just act like walking plot devices. The dive into Shaw and his family’s past is interesting but with Hobb and his family it’s just annoying. Honestly if they had just had the movie focus more on Hobbs and Shawn’s relationship while taking down the bad guys that would have been much better, though I guess it can’t be a Fast movie without family. Still though it’s a good movie, even if it may seem some scenes are there to extend the runtime
