Other characters return not only from the past but also from the dead, as is the custom in this series. This thing is like a daytime soap opera with car chases.April 14, 2017
The only time I truly felt engaged by The Fate of the Furious was when Jason Statham was onscreen, especially when he and Dwayne Johnson squared off.April 17, 2017
The action set pieces are several miles over the top... But what makes these sequences work is the bickering banter between Johnson, Statham, Chris Bridges, Tyrese Gibson and the rest of the mismatched cast.April 14, 2017
The series tries to have its cake and eat it too.April 14, 2017
The franchise has simply run out of gas (and original ideas) and The Fate of the Furious is one of the weakest offerings of the series.April 14, 2017
In the words of Kurt Russell's FBI maverick, Mr Nobody: "Rule number one. Know your audience." The powers-that-be certainly know us.April 13, 2017
You know what you're getting before you go, and you get it.April 25, 2017
Turbo charged and thoroughly mechanical, The Fate of the Furious is an empty-headed, essentially soulless popcorn film with modest aspirations in every regard but box office.April 14, 2017
The enjoyably ridiculous antics of F8: The Fate of the Furious can't fix a fissured film that sags under the weight of its divided narrative.April 17, 2017
For most of its running time this is a desperate search for a new spark plug.April 13, 2017
Stupid is not as easy as it looks. And just because the audience for stupid is reliable and vast, that doesn't mean we can't tell good stupid from bad.April 13, 2017
"The Fate of the Furious" begins and ends with adrenaline-spiking scenes - a drag race through Havana, an airplane brawl - that remind you why this gear-head franchise is still purring along. As for the two hours in between . . . not so much.April 14, 2017
It's about moments like the opening sequence where Dom is racing a car backwards and while on fire (and, umm, plenty of women in bikinis are watching).April 14, 2017
Uncle ... uncle!!! This franchise has that effect on film critics...April 13, 2017
One wishes "The Fate of the Furious" could have kept the well wishes and momentum going, but instead it has sunk back into mediocrity.April 13, 2017
A midsection sequence where Cipher taps into computers in vehicles and creates an army of CGI zombie cars might be the death of the franchise. When the cars are zombies, what part of The Fate Of The Furious truly feels alive?April 13, 2017
Fun if you're a fan but all that's changed since the 2001 original is a few characters, more humor, bigger stunts, the death of Paul Walker and a longer run time.April 17, 2017
Absurd? You betcha, but boy do director F Gary Gray and his cameramen handle the whole thing well.April 14, 2017
There's enough action-based mayhem to keep viewers engaged and entertained. (Full Content Review for Parents - Violence, Profanity, Revealing attire, etc. - also Available)April 13, 2017
You know what you're getting before you go, and you get it.April 24, 2017
Vin is king.April 13, 2017

[It] will earn zillions of dollars during the first nanoseconds of its global opening this weekend, so who am I to call it soulless, graceless, witless, incoherent -- even for the franchise -- and, not incidentally, brain-numbingly long at 136 minutes?April 13, 2017
...take[s] place in a fictional world where the laws of biology and physics don't apply, but the tenets of friendship and family do.April 23, 2017
It's all more ridiculous and implausible than ever. But it's so entertaining that I haven't stopped smiling yet. (Splice Today)April 13, 2017
It feels like the movies have gotten as big as they can get, and the gleeful absurdity that drove them is losing ground to the specter of obligation.April 14, 2017
Just when the Fast-and-the-Furious-on-Ice finale threatens to drag on past the point of action-setpiece endurance, director F. Gary Gray has the grace to send a supercar from heaven as an actual answer to prayer.April 21, 2017
Autos cascade like a waterfall from the top of a parking garage; sometimes their on-board computers are cyber-jacked so that they besiege midtown Manhattan in an attack wave of shiny expensive plastic and chrome.April 24, 2017
The Fate of the Furious tops its predecessors not in its action scenes, but by applying that familiar, reality-confounding aesthetic to its characters. The result tests the patience like nothing short of a Diesel crying scene.April 17, 2017
A film of unusual inventions and climatic attractions without too much surprise. [Full review in Spanish]April 13, 2017
If the fate of the Furious series is to grow somehow both wearier and dumber with age, then the eighth film is proof of a mission firmly accomplished. And there's no shame, Vin, in hanging it all up after a job well done.April 13, 2017
Not only assures viewers there's plenty more levels of ludicrously entertaining levels to go, but asserts itself as a contender for best in the series.April 14, 2017
The Fate of the Furious offers everything you might want from the series, but those offerings are beginning to look ever so slightly stale.April 13, 2017
Fate Of The Furious delivers all the knockout stunts the fans expect even if the series is drifting into over-the-top James Bond style plots.April 18, 2017
So why is The Fate of the Furious an amusing step up on recent editions? Its ludicrousness has an amiability this time around that's more enjoyable than the mawkishness that dogged 2015's Fast & Furious 7.April 17, 2017
A very funny and fulfilling sequel, that is approaching in terms of features to the science fiction cinema in its superheroic side. [Full review in Spanish]April 22, 2017
Ridiculous is fine. Ridiculous while trying to be deep and dramatic just doesn't cut it with Vin Diesel at the forefront...and its way too long.April 13, 2017

While The Fate of the Furious is an unquestionably enjoyable outing, it's beginning to feel a lot like fatigue on a long-enduring franchise.April 13, 2017
If you're not interested in seeing a fleet of cars get chased across a frozen lake by a Russian submarine, that's between you and your maker. As long as you are, [Fate] is a wildly entertaining thrill ride that never lets its foot off the gas.April 13, 2017
What will keep [fans] happy during Fate's two hours, are the spectacular run of car chases and pileups.April 13, 2017
