Movie Review- Fast & Furious 8

Fast & Furious 8 internationally is a 2017 American action thriller film directed by F. Gary Gray. It is the sequel to Fast & Furious 7 . It is the eighth installment in the Fast & Furious franchise. The film actors are Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Scott Eastwood, Nathalie Emmanuel, Elsa Pataky, Kurt Russell, Kristofer Hivju, and Charlize Theron. Photography began in locations such as Mývatn, Havana, Atlanta, Cleveland, and New York City, continuing the franchise's tradition of filming in exotic locations around the world. In the film Dominic Toretto has settled down with his wife Letty Ortiz, until cyberterrorist Cipher coerces him into working for her and turns him against his team, forcing them to find Dom and take down Cipher.

Dom Toretto and Letty Ortiz are on their honeymoon in Havana. The next day, an elusive cyberterrorist named Cipher coerces Dom into working for her by showing him an unseen photo or video on her phone. In New York City, Cipher sends Dom to retrieve a nuclear football held by the Russian Minister of Defense. Prior to the theft, Dom briefly evades Cipher—with the help of Raldo—and persuades Deckard and Owen's mother, Magdalene, to help him. Cipher hacks into the electronics systems of many cars, remotely controlling them via auto drive, causing them to disable the convoy so that Dom can take the football. The team intercepts Dom, but Dom escapes, seemingly killing Deckard in the process. Letty catches up to Dom, but is ambushed and nearly killed by Cipher's enforcer, Connor Rhodes, before Dom stops him. In retaliation, Cipher has Rhodes execute Elena in front of Dom, threatening to kill his son next. Dom infiltrates a military separatist base in Russia to use the EMP device to disable their security and to disable a nuclear submarine, enabling Cipher to hijack it and attempt to use its arsenal to trigger a nuclear war. Meanwhile, Deckard, who faked his death with the help of Magdalene Shaw, teams up with Owen, and at Magdalene's behest, infiltrates Cipher's plane to rescue Dom's son. Once Deckard reports that the child is safe, Dom turns on Cipher and kills Rhodes, before rejoining his team. Infuriated, Cipher fires an infrared homing missile at Dom, but he breaks away from his team and maneuvers around it, causing the missile to hit the submarine instead, causing an explosion that destroys Dom's vehicle. The team forms a vehicular blockade around Dom, shielding him from the ensuing explosion as the submarine is destroyed. Deckard reaches the front of the plane and confronts Cipher, who escapes by jumping from the plane with a parachute.

I like this movie very much. It is a story of saving family. It also contains some funny clips. The scene that surprised me is that it is Deckard that saved Dom's son. He was the bad guy in Fast & Furious 7, so it makes me think that he will cooperate with Cipher. The special effects of this movie are also very real, and the sound effects of the explosion are also comprehensive.
