Now more than ever before Dominic Toretto and his gang… sorry, family, since he reminds us of this many times… feel less like a ragtag group of hijackers and car thieves and more like a group of superheroes. After seven films of watching these guys narrowly escape death and drive cars under oil tankers and jump through buildings and take down a military jet and even a tank, it seems almost inevitable for the series to embrace the fact that this is a family of super-powered beings that got hit by a radioactive car. Of course, these characters have a lot of heart and are all given amiable character scenes and traits, but in FURIOUS 7, now more than ever before, their logic and gravity-defying stunts reach new heights. Quite literally, as a matter of fact, since we see these cars get dropped from the sky and fly through not one but two buildings. And like any exaggerated comic book film, these stunts result in barely a scratch on their chiseled bodies. All the while I think I got a finger cramp just typing this review.
Director James Wan, sitting in the driver’s seat for the first time in the franchise, seems fully aware of this fact for better or for worse. He’s aware that the tongue is now firmly in the cheek and even gives into this superhero metaphor by showing Hobbs watch a certain mean and green classic hero on the television in one scene. This theme is extended to many of the actions scenes as well. Fans of the series expect these sensational stunts by now. The films have naturally evolved past the point of realism and into pure cinematic escapism. If seeing this motley crew barely escape death all the while speeding around in fast cars and creating vehicular mayhem isn’t quite your speed, then I can’t tell you fast enough to bow out of this race. But for my money, the FAST & FURIOUS is one of the most entertaining cinematic series of my “generation,” and so when I witness Brian O’Connor fly through the air like superman or see Dom stomp with a heavy foot on a crumbling cement floor causing it to weaken more, I accept it because I care for these characters too much to not. I’ve watched them grow for seven highly entertaining films now. This series knows exactly what it wants to be and is very aware of audience’s expectations. With part 7, we may be very far from the amateur street racers that we were first introduced to in the earlier films, that being said, even superheroes become more attune to their powers over time and realize what they are actually capable of.
The film opens with Dom, Brian, and the rest of the FAST family being hunted by Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) – the older brother of the 6th film’s baddie Owen Shaw (Luke Evans). When Dom finds out that Han (Sung Kang) is killed by Deckard in Tokyo, he sets out to avenge Han’s death. It’s through the help of a special forces agent (Kurt Russell) on the trail of a computer program called the “God’s Eye,” that Dom realizes that getting a hold of this program and its programmer might help him get his revenge on Shaw and stop his murderous streak.
FURIOUS 7 introduces a number of new characters into this cinematic universe. The most noteworthy is Jason Statham as our new big baddie. His sinister presence is immediately felt with an audacious and hilarious opening scene that shows exactly what he’s capable of. He lends the film a sense of uneasiness as you feel like he could appear around any corner at any time. A fitting comparison could be made to the original TERMINATOR, as you truly believe he is an unstoppable killing machine. His screen time is quite a bit less than his onscreen brother from the previous film or the once villain now turned hero Hobbs (Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) in FAST FIVE, but he has to also make room for newcomers Kurt Russell, Nathalie Emmanuel, and Ronda Rousey. Even though his character is listed in the credits as Mr. Nobody, Russell is instantly memorable as an American special teams leader with a dry sense of humor and a penchant for Belgium beer (Yes… the “artisan/craft beer” vs “drinkable beer” debate continues on!) It’s great watching him add some levity to the film in a role that feels in the same vein as his working class smart-ass role from BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA.
What’s most noteworthy is that the stunts are bigger than ever in the seventh film. There are three major action scenes and they feel like mini movies given how long and multi-faceted they are. While the previous film may have packed more action through a constant barrage of rapid-fire scenes, the action here is relegated to three scenes that are quite impressive given their scope and scale. The highlight is the sequence that begins with the cars dropping from a cargo plane onto a mountain in Azerbaijan. What follows is an exhilarating and smartly staged sequence that feels like a small nod to the high-jacking of the eighteen-wheelers in the original FAST film but done on a much grander scale. Cars explode, barrel down tree-covered rocky hills, and … well… did I mention they fall out of a plane and land perfectly on a road?
The final action sequence really takes the series to the next level by turning an entire section of downtown LA into a giant game of Battleship. Each character has his own mission and is constantly engaged in a fight with either a pipe swinging Jason Statham, a quick on his feet Tony Jaa, or a hi-tech military drone with tracking missile capability. James Wan follows close to the same footprints left behind by Justin Lin and lets the action tell a story. We don’t just see aimless shooting between characters, then cut to an explosion, and end scene. Each action sequence relays character traits and tells a cohesive story that’s easy to follow. Yes, they are a team… shit, I mean family… but they are also individuals, and the closing sequence really shows each mini adventure which ultimately forms a larger and quite impressive action spectacle.
This being Paul Walker’s last ride, there’s an air of inevitability to all the theatrics. His story arc carries much more weight given the unfortunate circumstances. Maybe it’s my own sentimental connection to this franchise, but the additional scenes that were filmed to wrap up his storyline entirely worked for me – the same cannot be said for a few of the clunky dramatic scenes between Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez. Wan and writer Chris Morgan do justice to Walker’s life and legacy which will no doubt be always connected to this franchise. How they conclude Brian’s storyline is appropriate and respectful, no doubt leaving many fans with a tear or two.
FURIOUS 7 (or FURIOUS SEVEN as the opening credits state) will always live on as a somber but memorable moment in this franchise. Exciting races, cool cars, and girls in slinky outfits may be what this series once represented on the surface, but it was the characters and the family angle that kept most of us around after all these years. Explosive summer films come and go during the weekends every year, and yet the FAST & FURIOUS films continue to speed forward showing no signs of slowing down. Although this family lost one of its most important leaders, I can’t help but think that they will live to fight another day, just like any superhero team would.

Back Lot Music will release the score soundtrack for FURIOUS 7, Universal Pictures’ upcoming action-thriller directed by James Wan and starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Dwayne Johnson on March 31, 2015, it was announced today. The FURIOUS 7 Original Motion Picture Score features new music by award-winning composer Brian Tyler.

In 2010, Tyler arranged and conducted Jerry Goldsmiths’s film logo music for Universal Pictures and composed a theme for the 100-year anniversary of the studio, making him a valuable part of the Universal family.
Discussing his creation of the score for FURIOUS 7, Tyler commented: “It was a pleasure to collaborate with James [Wan] on FURIOUS 7, as he wanted the emotion of the themes to be the primary focus. The music uses modern recording techniques, vintage modular synthesizers, mashed-up beats, drums and tweaked remix elements along with classic film scoring traditions including full orchestra, piano, voice and classical guitar. I am so proud of the movie, and I dedicate the score to the memory of Paul Walker and all the joy he brought.”
In describing Tyler’s score for FURIOUS 7, Wan remarked, “Brian’s amazing score gave this movie life. He did an incredible job of crafting an electrifying score for the bombastic action moments, one that is balanced by the beautiful and emotional themes of the characters that underline the heart of this movie.”
Tyler won his first World Soundtrack Award in 2002 for Best New Film Composer of the Year. He has received three Emmy Award nominations, 13 BMI Music Awards, five ASCAP Music Awards, and recently won 12 Goldspirit Awards, including Composer of the Year.

At its outset, 15 years ago, no one could have foreseen that the destiny of this story about a team of street racers in East L.A. would transform into one of the most popular and enduring motion-picture serials of all time.

Etihad Airways, the national airline of the United Arab Emirates, and Universal Pictures unveiled the luxury Fast & Furious 777 airliner at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).
Actor/producer Vin Diesel was on hand as Etihad Airways Flight 171 arrived from Abu Dhabi to kick off the global junket and world premiere of FURIOUS 7.
The film arrives in theaters on April 3.
Representing a welcome first for the franchise, the Fast & Furious 777 will fly the direct route between Abu Dhabi and Los Angeles, which Etihad Airways opened in June 2014. The airline is also a sponsor of the FURIOUS 7 world premiere, which takes place in Los Angeles on April 1.
As the United Arab Emirates offered an opportunity to inject striking elements and locales into the series’ mythology, Abu Dhabi became a key location for the Furious 7 production. Over the course of two weeks in April 2014, the team lensed in areas outside Abu Dhabi in the Liwa Desert, as well as in the city center at such locations as the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Emirates Palace hotel, the Yas Marina F1 race circuit and the Etihad Towers. Considering Abu Dhabi’s striking skyline—one accentuated with stunning architectural achievements—aerial shots of the skyscrapers were mandatory.
“When we began filming The Fast and the Furious in 2000, if you told me that we would one day have our logo on a wide-body jet, I would have said you were crazy,” said producer Neal H. Moritz, who has shepherded all seven films in the series. “We are so honored that Etihad has partnered with us to support this very personal film, and we thank the people of the United Arab Emirates for all the kindness and graciousness they showed throughout production.”
The Fast & Furious decal will remain on the plane for the next four to six months.
The film is rated PG 13 for prolonged frenetic sequences of violence, action and mayhem, suggestive content and brief strong language.

By now, most of you are familiar with the galactic awesomeness that is GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, but for those of you that have been hiding under a rock on Knowhere, you’re in luck because this spunky bunch of A-holes are making their way to Blu-Ray on December 9th.
Last week, I talked with writer/director/animal enthusiast James Gunn about his feelings before releasing the film, the upcoming sequel and, of course, Michael Rooker. Check it out below.
Before the film was released, there were a ton of headlines about James Gunn being terrified to release GUARDIANS. The film’s coming to Blu-ray now, and has done incredibly well, so I’m wondering what scares you now?
JAMES GUNN : Well, I wasn’t terrified of releasing the movie. I was terrified because I didn’t know how I was going to live my life without having Rocket in it everyday. I mean, it’s simple. [Laughs] It really is. I had grown so attached to Rocket and Groot. I’d been with them every day for countless hours on end. They were like my children, and I thought there was a chance the movie would come out – what if the movie came out and it didn’t do very well? I wouldn’t be able to see them again. I was just terrified. I was also terrified that I really just didn’t want to let it go. The movie and the creation of it became a part of the fabric of my existence, and it had become everything that I was doing for two years. It was like, where the fuck was I gonna go when all this was done. Not physically, but emotionally. I didn’t know. That’s what I was afraid of.
At what point did you really start thinking about the sequel? You’ve stated that you always kind of had it in mind when you were creating the first one, but at what point did you really start thinking about it?
JAMES GUNN : I would say… I was sitting with Simon (Hatt, his assistant) in my trailer about halfway through shooting, and I was like ‘Here’s what the sequel is’… [laughs] and I made him sit down and start taking notes.That was really when, I think, the sequel started to come together. I think the next big leap was on the day the movie was released, I sat down and I wrote out all the basic, you know – story of what the sequel would be on August 1st. Those are the two moments where it started to come together.
I was looking today, and I cannot find a single instance where a sequel was announced before the release of the original film. I may be wrong to say this is a first, but does that add any pressure to you? Having the sequel announced before the release of the original film?
JAMES GUNN : Um… No. Listen, here’s the thing. If the movie didn’t do well they would have just unannounced the sequel. I was somewhat comforted in them announcing the sequel. I think by that time we thought the movie wasn’t going to do as well as it did, but we thought the movie was going to make 60 million on opening weekend. It was tracking for that. I mean, we made 94. Even if it made 50 million opening weekend it probably would have warranted a sequel. Also by that timeframe we knew that the reviews were beyond good. I was happy to know that I was going to have a job for the next couple of years.
At the original junket, I asked [Michael] Rooker about how you made him a monster in SLITHER, covered him in blood during ‘Scream Queens’, and painted him blue for GUARDIANS. Why are you trying to cover up his beauty? He says that you’re just jealous! [Check out Rooker’s full answer and interview HERE]
JAMES GUNN : You know, my turds are jealous of Rooker’s face, but I think that’s all that’s jealous of Rooker’s face! [Laughs] You know who really has it bad is my brother Sean, who I’ve repeatedly killed in movies. In TROMEO AND JULIET we had to shave his head to have three different little ponytails, as ‘Alien Orphan’ in THE SPECIALS we had to shave his head bald, in SUPER he had to have this god-awful guido cut, and as ‘Kraglin’ he has this screwed up mohawk! What I’ve done to Rooker is not as much as what I’ve done to Sean. I obviously have some deep resentment toward him, so… [Laughs]
Most people are familiar that you’re friends with Rooker, Nathan Fillion, and of course your brother, but what a lot of people might not recognize is that you have a couple more of your close friends in the film. What are some of the benefits, creatively, of being able to include friends in your projects?
JAMES GUNN : Frankly, directing is a pretty isolating thing. For me, it was cool to just have those moments when things are going crazy that I can go over and just kind of lean on somebody’s shoulder for a second, and that’s what people like my brother Sean, Michael Rooker, and Stevie Blackehart, who’s been in my last couple of movies – those people do that for me. And truthfully Chris Pratt and I did that same thing to each other. So, it’s nice to have that.
Has Kevin Bacon gotten back to you about him being referenced in the film?
JAMES GUNN : Oh yeah! He got back to me immediately. He was delighted. [Laughs] He was very stoked, and he took it as a big compliment. He just thought it was funnier than hell! Not only that, but Krya (Sedgwick) was writing me about how funny it was on Twitter. She loved it. Kevin is just one of the best guys I’ve ever met, not just as an actor but as a human being. I really like him, as an actor especially. He’s just the easiest person I’ve ever worked with. It’s really cool that I got to put him in there.
