Dominic is currently living his life as a family man with Letty and his son, Brian.
Their latest mission is to steal a computer chip in Rome and Roman is to lead the mission. However, when Cipher arrives at Dominic's house in the middle of the night, wounded, telling him that her crew turned against her after being threatened by Dante Reyes, Dominic feels uneasy. Dante is the son of the drug lord that the team took down ten years earlier.
When the Agency arrives to take Cipher into custody, he tells Dominic that there is no mission in Rome. Dominic realises that Dante's plan is already in effect and he rushes to Rome to save his team.
Meanwhile, Roman and the team are already trapped in Dante's plan. They are locked inside a truck carrying a huge bomb. The bomb is released through the street and Dominic manages to revert the bomb into the Tiber River to minimize the damage. Letty is captured.
The new boss of Agency, Agent Aimes, believes that Dominic and his team are responsible for the bombing and begins the manhunt.
Jakob takes Brian to Portugal when a team from Agency tries to take him.
Roman's team enters London and realises that their bank accounts are hacked. Han seeks Deckard's help. It seems at this point that whoever is helping Dominic and his crew are wanted by Dante and the world.
Dante manages to capture Brian. Now Brian is used as a bargaining chip to lure Dominic into submission.
In Dante's words, with a family so big, who and how will you ensure their safety?
MY REVIEW
Plot: 4.0/ 5.0 Nothing new. This time around is bomb rolling around in Rome and almost blow Vatican out of the map. And Jason Mamoa into the mix.
Somehow, all those that are dead, are now alive. And somehow, I think in the next two movies (yes, there will be more), more dead people are coming out.
All in all, a good movie to watch, with lots of action and gravity defying acts (at times defying logic too), as usual. A fun watch.
Cast: 4.0/ 5.0 All are great actors. Jason is trying too much to be casual and funny, at times he looks like Jack Sparrow.
I think I like it better when Vin says 'I am Groot' as all his lines are one-liner and sounds very 'qoute' like.
Will I Watch It Again: Yes, I probably would.
The pictures are taken from multiple sources on the Internet. Thank you.
