Summer Sequels:Fast Five

Well its that time of the year again between spring and summer, when the flowers bloom, the rainbows form and the movies come out in drizzles of golden showers.Its the time for sequels in Hollywood and no ones more merrier than the movie buff.Riding on the wave of sequels of fast and the furious,cars,pirates of the Caribbean,hangover,kungfu panda,X men(actually a prequel) and the transformer saga.Its just one of those film festivals enough to drive the movie manic into madness again.'So we start off with the high octane sequel to Fast and the furious "Fast Five".

There's a thing about fast cars and lots of biker babes that seems to attract the boyish urge that still resides in us , that feeling of one would describe as the need for speed .....That is the one driving factor for the fast and furious franchise. The franchise brings back Vin diesel and Paul walker to that winning throttle .

Here's a short synopsis to Drive you crazy....
Since Brian O'Conner and Mia Toretto broke Dom Toretto out of custody, they've blown across many borders to elude authorities. Now backed into a corner in Rio de Janeiro, they must pull one last job in order to gain their freedom. As they assemble their elite team of top racers, the unlikely allies know their only shot of getting out for good means confronting the corrupt businessman who wants them dead. But he's not the only one on their tail. Hard-nosed federal agent Luke Hobbs never misses his target. When he is assigned to track down Dom and Brian, he and his strike team launch an all-out assault to capture them. But as his men tear through Brazil, Hobbs learns he can't separate the good guys from the bad. Now, he must rely on his instincts to corner his prey... before someone else runs them down first.

The franchise takes you to Rio and involves more plot while still maintains the high octane action expected out of it.The stunt sequences are amazing and the fact that they didn't waste time trying to make it 3D just puts more raw action in your face.As usual there's little to the characters and more to the cars.The females provide you with enough eye candy and the director manages to squeeze in that all necessary scene of a bikini shot.The "Rock" Dwayne Johnson fills the shoes of the good yet bugging protagonist out to catch Walker and diesel .Their chemistry appealing to the macho man crowd and action sequences filling the thirst of the adolescent adult .
