Storyline of The fate of the Furious

 
Dominic Torreto has married Letty and the couple is enjoying their honeymoon at Havana, Cuba where “it does not matter what is under the hood”. The beautiful oceanfront looking out onto the Gulf of Mexico is the adobe of thrilling street racing. Brian and Mia have decided to dedicate their life to their family and are now officially retired, away from the “ride or die” lifestyle. The rest of the team has embraced a normal lifestyle and are indulged into their own things trying to get settled. But it’s fast and the furious – things can be anything but slow and boring. Furious is in their DNA and one way or the other, trouble manages to find its way in their lives.

Charlize Theron turns Vin Diesel against his family.

One unfortunate morning a beautiful storm hits the peaceful life of Dom in the form of a mysterious woman known as Cipher. She is one of the most dangerous cyber terrorists of the world and she intends to take over the world of Dominic Torreto. She manages to pull Dom away from his loved ones to an underground dark world of crime which he can’t escape. She forces Dom to break the only code in his life he lives by- family.

That’s when Hobbs come into the picture. He has been given the responsibility to stop Cipher’s plan of world domination. To do that he needs Dom’s old team and an old foe, Deckard Shaw. The chase to catch Cipher and bring back Dom to his family begins which unfolds a lot of twists and some unbelievable actions.

THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS MOVIE REVIEW

Fast and furious series has come a long way from the plot of thefts to world annihilation. But the theme still remains same- family. Dom has gone rogue which is the most thrilling aspect of the movie and is taking on his former mates. He does not hesitate to even try and kill them. But wait, that is not the only best part of the movie.

Jason Statham and Dwayne Johnson are the best part of the movie.

The best part of the movie is the entertaining rivalry between Hobbs and Deckard Shaw. The ending segment between Hobbs and Shaw in the last movie gave the hint that things might not be over between two and Furious 8 just gives us that. By putting into the prison with Shaw adds much more to the movie. It introduces  Kurt Russell as Mr Nobody who is a black ops expert and is pulling the strings from behind and Scott Eastwood as Little Nobody who is his assistant.

Dom turning on his family is enough to enhance the curiosity among fans and keep them glued to their seats. You need a very strong reason for Dom going rogue and if you are waiting eagerly to find out that reason then you might end up being disappointed. Well, we won’t spoil it for you. Find it for yourself.

The movie is full of extreme stunts.

The one thing that defines the fast and furious series is its gravity-defying action stunts. Over the years we have seen some awesome racing on the roads, cars parachuting from the sky. From tanks to planes we have seen it all. Furious 8 takes it to another level by making Dom chase a nuclear submarine. That sounds unreal but Dom has done it in the movie. The finally on the Russian glacier lives up to the expectation of the audience who are used to over the top death-defying stunts in the franchise.

Furious 8 is not as emotional as its predecessor but if you are a die-hard fan of the franchise then its good enough for you.
