This movie was entertaining for all the wrong reasons


We could not stop laughing, it was so far fetched. I know these movies crossed the line long ago but this one...whew, should be classified as science fiction comedy. Even the characters were questioning how they survive.

What was Michael Rooker doing in this mess?

This is why it's entertaining for all the right reasons. It's selfaware without reducing itself to parody or comedy. (though some ppl love that shit too)

Hell, the movie even made fun of itself because John Cena is clearly not related to Vin Diesel.

I laugh so hard while watching this comedy gold.

I can't remember the last time I laugh like a psycho to a movie, (maybe 2000 Snatch?)

F9 is a instant classic, in 10 years it willl be recognize as a action comdy gold, like True Lies, Tropic Thunder.

Watching John Cena trying to act is certainly right up there with being entertained by this generation's "actor's actor" Brad Pitt.

You read my mind, mate. I had a dream that this was followed by two sequels back to back, Fast & Faster and Furious and Furiouser, then came the big reveal; the whole series has been just an extravagant prequel to Dumb and Dumber. It kinda made sense to me except Dumb and Dumber was a much more "intelligent" and “realistic” film. I find it fascinating that all those films are called intellectual properties.

I think Rooker just wanted to wear the long hair wig for a while.

I was expecting some over the top ridiculousness but they really out did themselves this time.I think i laughed the most when they drove the rocket car into space.

"they drove the rocket car into space."

I havent seen it , imagine having not seen it and you read
"they drove the rocket car into space."

:D

reply

It's sounds ridiculous saying out loud but yea they attached rockets to a car and flew it into space to disable a satellite.

reply

They couldnt just let the rockets go and disable the satelilite without a car strapped to them :D :D ?

reply

They were suppose to put space suits on and do something to the satellite but in the end they drove or flew the car threw it.I'm laughing just writing this.What 10 year old comes up with this stuff.

reply

The magnets were supposed to damage the sattelite, but the magnets didnt work in space.
