Fast and Furious 8 (2017) quick review
Quick review: we still have the exciting car chases. What’s new here are zombie cars and chases on ice. The central theme as always is family. I missed the automotive references as I don’t have that much interest on cars. Quick rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (I like it). Spoiler alert, we may need a ninth installment.
