Fast Five

For those of you who read my last blog post, Short & Sweet, you know that Friday night I went to see the movie Fast Five.  To put it simply IT WAS AWESOME!!

It had everything I expected it to have; fast cars, hot men (and women), excitement, action, and a little bit of love.  This movie is the fifth in the "fast & furious series" I guess you could say.  They seem to just keep getting better and better too since I thought the fourth one was freaking awesome as well.

What I loved about this movie is it brought characters from the previous four movies together.  Some characters haven't been seen since the first movie and others were more recent additions.  And then there was a brand new character introduced.

There was one point towards the end of the movie where my mom predicted what happened and I was thinking no way that couldn't have happened.  But then of course they went back to show you what happened that you don't necessarily pick up on the first time you see the scene, and obviously they show you stuff that wasn't shown the first time.  That was probably one of the best moments during the actual movie.

The best part that happened outside of the actual movie was after the credits.  I'm not going to tell you why though because that would just ruin the fun of it and it would take away from the experience of seeing what I'm talking about right after the movie.  Knowing what I'm talking about would just ruin it completely!

Some of you have said you wanted to see the movie so when I told you to watch all of the credits I hope you listened, or will listen.  It's definitely worth the extra minutes spent sitting in your seat.  I'm so thankful the guy at the theater that talked a little bit before the start of the movie told us to stay.  I guess I can let you have this little hint since I didn't think it ruined anything when the movie theater guy told us this...it's a teaser to the NEXT movie!  Oh yeah, another one is going to be made!

I hope if you're even remotely interested in this movie, or even thinking about possibly going with someone even though you're not interested that you go.  It won't disappoint!

**This is the first time I've written a "review" type of post so let me know how I did please!!**

Edit: I forgot to mention that you do not need to have seen the previous four movies to understand this movie.  But since I like them as well I suggest watching them too ;)

I have never seen any of the movies but now you make me want too. Perhaps I'll have to go. :)

Yay! If we weren't a bagillion miles away I'd invite you over to watch the first four at my house since my brother owns them all. If you go or end up watching any of the movies you'll have to let me know what you think.
