Well—I didn’t want to like it.
I basically hate these “Fast and Furious” movies; I can’t stand the whole dumb-as-a-bag-of-hammers concept: A bunch of car-mechanic criminals, basically, save the world via stunt-driving, all while being surrounded by Brazilian girls in thong bikinis.

There’s a book I’d like to recommend at this time: it’s called Dumbing Down America: The War on Our Nation’s Brightest Young Minds. Perhaps you’ve heard of it? “Fast and Furious” franchise mastermind Vin Diesel is cited therein as Public Enemy Number One. I just made that up. But it might as well be true….
