OUR RATING: ★★☆☆☆
Story:
Action adventure sequel, also known as Fast & Furious 10 (2023), directed by Louis Leterrier. After Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his crew took out nefarious Brazilian drug kingpin Hernan Reyes and decapitated his empire on a bridge in Rio De Janeiro in Fast Five (2011), they didn’t know that Reyes son, Dante (Jason Momoa), witnessed it all and has spent the last 12 years masterminding a plan to make Dom pay the ultimate price. Dante’s plot will scatter Dom’s family from LA to the catacombs of Rome, from Brazil to London, and from Portugal to Antarctica. New allies will be forged and old enemies will resurface. But everything changes when Dom discovers that his own son, Brian (Leo Abelo Perry), is the ultimate target of Dante’s vengeance.

Best Quotes
Hernan Reyes: [to Dante] There is nothing a father wouldn’t do for his son. Your mother never understood this. She looked at you and saw a monster. I saw potential.
Hernan Reyes: [to Dante] I brought you here today. Was it generosity? Love? No. It’s so what I built doesn’t die with me. So my legacy can live on, because a father and his son is everything.
Dante: I’ll kill Dominic Toretto. I’ll kill them all.
Hernan Reyes: Kill them? You’d show them mercy? No, my son. When suffering is owed, never accept death as a payment. Make Toretto suffer.
Dominic Toretto: B, no one starts at the finish line. You got to have faith. Remember today’s lesson. Find the line, feel the car, and let it fly. It’s okay to be afraid. Sometimes fear can be the best teacher.

Little Brian: I wasn’t scared.
Dominic Toretto: Everyone gets scared, son.
Little Brian: You don’t. You’re not afraid of anything.
Abuelita: As I look out at this wonderful family, I am filled with so much pride. The kind of pride that my son, your father, would have enjoyed if he were here. I know that this road has been very hard, and also not fair. And yet here you are, despite all of the odds, building this magnificent leg… It is a legacy that will go on for generations. No one can take it away. Not now. Not ever. To familia.
Roman: [to Ramsey] See, what I really need is I need your brain.
Tej: Words Roman Pearce has never said.
Roman: We’re talking about Rome. Rome. Roman. Come on, man. That’s like planning a heist in my backyard.
Tej: Only thing you know about Rome is “ro-man” noodles.

Dominic Toretto: I mean, that’s the whole point, isn’t it? Pass it down. Each generation better than the last.
Han: That’s true.
Dominic Toretto: That’s fatherhood.
Han: Come a long way from the two of us popping gas trucks in the DR, huh?
Dominic Toretto: We sure did.
Han: Those were some tough times.
Dominic Toretto: Those were some great times.
Abuelita: [to Dominic] Hold us in your heart, and you will never lose your way.
Dominic Toretto: You know, when we were in the car today B said, “Daddy, you’re never afraid.” But I am. I’m afraid of losing a son. Or a wife.
Letty: That’s not going to happen again.

Cipher: I’m as surprised as you are.
Dominic Toretto: I’ve imagined killing you a thousand times. Last time, there was six inches of reinforced glass, guns, guards. I couldn’t reach you then. Now I can.
Cipher: You’re going to want to hear my last words.
Cipher: I met the devil tonight. Honestly, I always thought it was me. So that was kind of disappointing.
Dante: They say when you’re facing death, your life flashes before your eyes. Are they right?
Dominic Toretto: Before you bleed out on my couch, you might want to explain why you’re here.
Cipher: I’m here because the enemy of my enemy is you.
Dante: I am a man with no name. Heir to nothing. And I’m here for the same reasons you are. Dominic Toretto.
Cipher: You want to kill Dom? Line’s around the block.
Dante: No, no, no. Never accept death when suffering is owed. But I need your help. Your toys, and your tech. All your boys.
'Never accept death when suffering is owed.' - Dante (Fast X) Share on X
Dante: [to Cipher] You want to control the world. I just want to punish it.
Cipher: It is hard finding good help these days.
Cipher: [to Dominic] There’s a war coming. The sides are being chosen. And everyone you love will be destroyed.
Dominic Toretto: [to Little Brian] Son, you and I will finish that driving lesson. It’s a promise. No matter what happens. And I always keep my promises.

Roman: Romey-Rome’s in the building. You see me shining, baby. We on my mission now.
Tej: Yeah, we all know that this is your mission. Because nobody else on Earth would put Han in an Alfa.
Han: [referring to the Alfa Romeo] What this old girl lacks in horsepower, she makes up for in agility.
Ramsey: Oh, that’s right. I know stuff now.
Tej: Will you marry me?
Ramsey: That’s all it took?
Roman: Cue Tiny Tej.
Tej: Wait, wait, wait. Hold up. Tiny Tej? What are you talking about, Roman?
Tej: [to Roman] Just so you know, Tiny Tej’s brain? Still bigger than yours.

Ramsey: It’s a bomb!
Roman: What happens if it goes off?
Tej: What do you mean, “What happens if it goes off?” The Seven Hills of Rome will be down to two and a half! City-wide devastation, countless lives lost. You know, the thing bombs do.
Dante: Alright, dorks. What are we blowing up? What? The Vatican? Wow. Okay. I’ll do it. But you guys are going to hell.
Little Nobody: We have to stop that truck.
Dante: Sorry, Captain America. Can’t let you do that.
'In a world where there is no code, no one's safe.' - Dominic Toretto (Fast X) Share on X
Letty: The truck’s about to go over the hill!
Han: We have to crash into it.
Roman: We have to what?!
Dante: Bad news, Dom. I’m back in business. You got thirty seconds to save Rome.
Roman: You’ve done everything you could.
Dominic Toretto: Not everything.

Dante: Through your suffering, I’ll fulfill my destiny. Come find me. Your pain has just begun. I’ll see you soon, Dom.
Tess: And what do you think happened in Italy?
Aimes: Oh, sightseeing, eating bucatini, stealing a twenty kiloton bomb.
Aimes: Los Angeles, 2001. Humble roots. Local kids. Street racers who became hijackers. Graduated to high-speed smuggling. Mobile jailbreaks. Train robberies. If it could be done in a car, they did it. If it violates the laws of God and gravity, they did it twice.
Tess: You write that yourself?
Aimes: That’s their MO. To corrupt law enforcement. Brian O’Conner. Elena Neves. Luke Hobbs. Everyone becomes family. It’s like a cult with cars. Even Tess’s dear old dad.
Tess: So we’re all just a barbecue and a beer away from corruption?
Aimes: As your direct superior, I don’t give a s**t about anybody’s heart of gold, and I hate barbecues. You know I’d make a freight train take a dirt road, so do not get in my way.
Tess: Okay. I’ll go my own way.
Dominic Toretto: When Rome falls, so does the world.
Queenie: Well, it ain’t no Roman holiday. And you’re no Gregory Peck.
Queenie: [to Dominic] And you’ve just shot to number one on the world’s most wanted list.
Dominic Toretto: I need you to get a message to Mr. Nobody.
Queenie: You’ll need a medium for that or a magician. He’s done his disappearing act.
Queenie: I’ve got a message for you, ducky. The world is on fire, and you want to keep running into the burning building to save lives, but eventually the building’s going to collapse on you.
Dominic Toretto: I don’t care about dying. I only care about protecting the people that I love.
Queenie: You know why gladiators never had families?
Dominic Toretto: Why?
Queenie: Because they knew that every day might be their last. You’re choosing a lonely way, my darling. Can’t take anyone with you.
Little Brian: It doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning’s winning.
Mia: Where have I heard that one before?
Tess: Letty is in a black site prison off of every map.
Dominic Toretto: Then get her out.
Tess: Nobody can.
Dominic Toretto: Nobody would.
Tess: Dom, I’m so sorry. But what you’re asking me to do is impossible.
Dominic Toretto: Nothing is impossible. You just have to have faith.
Tej: Sneaking us out of Rome in a shipping container full of aftershave, that was a terrible idea, Roman. Wait, I think I lost my sense of smell.
Ramsey: That is not aftershave. That is tear gas.
Letty: I’m no good to anyone in this cage. I have a feeling you didn’t come all this way without a plan. Game recognizes game.
Tess: If I make this move, there’s no coming back.
Letty: I like it already.
Isabel: I’m not looking for anyone’s approval.
Dominic Toretto: Before you get ahead of yourself, look around you. We’re all looking for a little validation.
Dante: Dominic Toretto. I knew you would come for me.
Dante: I’m Dante. Enchanté. And you were fantástico, fabuloso, o cara.
Dante: He saved the Vatican. Who does that? Seriously. The Pope? God?
Dante: My father was a horrible man, very bad daddy. But I kind of liked him. And you took him from me when you stole our money and left us with nothing but suffering.
Dominic Toretto: Well, that’s what I came here for. To end that suffering. Oh, and I didn’t take that money. I burned it.
Dante: Well, this is awkward. So, how about we all just start shooting each other and see what happens? Or we race. If you win, you take me in. If you lose? Don’t lose.
Dominic Toretto: You all came because you wanted to see a race. Let’s race!
Dante: I know what you’re thinking. And, yes, the carpet matches the drapes. Thank you.
Dante: I can’t believe I’m going to race the great Dominic Toretto. I have butterflies. You’re just so impressive. You’ve won so many races. Everyone loves you. You’ve saved so many lives. I know. It’s like you’re a saint. Saint Dominic. And I’ve been studying you. And watching you. I can’t figure it out. How do you choose? How do you choose the ones you save?
Dante: I win, baby! Keep coming, Dom! There’s so much more fun to be had!
Cipher: Good morning, sunshine.
Letty: Goddammit.
Dante: And then he was like, “Boom!” And I was like, “Blam!” And she was like, “What?” I was like, “Shut up.” And now I’m the best racer in the world, so.
Dante: You guys look fantastic. I know the black is very slimming and very scary, but the pastels, you know, they’re in season, and I feel like it tones down the masculinity a little bit, which we all need these days.
Dante: Did you know that I was legally dead for two minutes? Two minutes. Bob, pay attention. And you know what I saw? Nothing. Not a goddamn thing. But I do feel like once he cracked my skull open, it just opened my mind. Yeah, that’s deep, right?
Dante: So, mi casa, su casa. Let these dry, finish those mojitos, and someone’s going to come and bury you guys soon. I’m going to go wash my hair.
Han: We got heisted during our own heist.
Tej: Please tell me you’re not wearing Spanx.
Roman: Oh, this ain’t Spanx. These banks.
Jakob: The first rule of tradecraft, you can’t lose a tail if they don’t find you.
Aimes: These people have been outrunning the cops since they could reach the gas pedal. Get word to every snitch, smuggler, hitter, and hacker we’ve ever used. Money talks and so will they.
Dominic Toretto: A cop and a street racer. I’ll tell you something. They travel down the same road long enough, and they realize how much alike they really are. Trust me, I know.
Tej: Ooh, snacks.
Roman: Get me a receipt, homey.
Tej: How am I going to get a receipt from a vending machine?
Roman: How about you figure it out? Paper trail, bruh. For tax write-off.
Han: What kind of muffins are these?
Bowie: Oh, those are fun muffins. You have like four of them, you’ll be in your underwear watching Fantasia. Is that what you guys came for? My muffins? Oh, it’s going to be a muffin party?
Ramsey: We need transport. Weapons, cars, the works. And quietly.
Bowie: Cool, then I’m just going to need cash. Okay? None of that crypto stuff.
Tej: Oh, the Black Jeff Bezos here got you covered.
Bowie: Black Bezos?
Tej: Yeah. He’s even been into outer space.
Letty: How much time to we have?
Cipher: I’d say about four minutes.
Letty: It’ll have to do.
[punches Cipher in the face]
Cipher: [as they’re fighting] I’d stay down if I was you.
Letty: You’ll need to hit me harder for that.
Isabel: I would have won that race, you know.
Dominic Toretto: So you want a rematch?
Isabel: I’m demanding it.
Dominic Toretto: So I guess I’ll see you soon.
Jakob: Swearing is for song lyrics only and stubbed toes.
Han: I have something to talk to you about.
Deckard Shaw: The only reason a dead guy shows up at my door, revenge.
Deckard Shaw: You should have stayed dead. I don’t like repeating myself.
Han: You ruined my snacks.
Han: Relax. I don’t want to fight you.
Deckard Shaw: Then this is going to end quick.
Deckard Shaw: You still drive?
Han: What do you think?
Dante: [to Dominic] How do you like my place? I’m bummed I’m not there to show you around. And a little embarrassed you saw my vision board.
Dominic Toretto: Now I know you’re a dead man.
Dante: You mean resurrected. Thanks to you. You know, if you never would have gotten behind that wheel, I’d never be the man that I am today.
Dante: [to Dominic] You built such a beautiful life, filled with love and family. I never got that chance. Collateral damage, chaos, death. This is your legacy. I’m your legacy.
Dominic Toretto: You know what I can’t figure out? How someone born so rich chooses the poorest path through life. You got no honor. Without honor, you got no family. And without family, you’ve got nothing.
Dante: I have nothing because of you. My future. My family. You stole that from me. And now I’m going to break yours, piece by piece.
Dante: Do you like surprises, Dommy? I adore them. But the game’s not over yet. There’s still so many people to hurt.
Roman: You are not to be trusted.
Deckard Shaw: Hey, you ain’t on my Christmas list either.
Tej: So this guy doesn’t just want us dead. He wants to erase us off the planet.
Han: He’s trying to tear us apart.
Deckard Shaw: I’ll have transport waiting for you.
Tej: And where are you going?
Deckard Shaw: I’m going to dig some graves.
Aimes: Mr. Nobody’s golden boy, caught without so much as a fight. That’s no fun. It’s like going all the way to Everest and taking the elevator.
Dominic Toretto: You might want to buckle up.
Aimes: You should have spent less time with your head under the hood and more time preparing for what’s coming. Spies have been replaced by satellites, fighter pilots by drones, intelligence by an algorithm. The days where one man behind the wheel of a car can make a difference are over, Dom. Hell, the days of any man behind the wheel of a car are over.
Aimes: What are you doing?
Dominic Toretto: Preparing for what’s to come.
Dante: [to Dominic] You know what your problem is? Family. You can’t save them all.
Dante: Oh, Dommy! I told you, you owe me suffering! Your legacy isn’t money, or power, or the family you built, or the life you led. It’s the life you made. And a father and his son, is everything! You killed my father on this bridge. And now I know where to find your son. Enchanté.
Aimes: [to Dominic] I’m not going to say I’m sorry, so let me do you one better. Let’s get your son.
Jakob: You just got to keep yourself open to possibilities. And, of course, have a lot of time on your hands.
Tej: Why are you so quiet? You alright?
Roman: Just been sitting here thinking, man.
Tej: I knew I smelled something burning in here.
Roman: I guess this whole leadership thing really ain’t for me.
Tej: You took us to London on a container. You spent thousands of dollars of your own cash, strapped to your a**, that now smells like cheap cologne. Now you’re sitting here taking sole responsibility for something that we all wear.
Roman: Yeah, I know. It sounds stupid.
Tej: No, it don’t sound stupid at all. You know what it sounds like to me? That sounds like a leader.
Tej: You okay? What’s wrong?
Roman: I’m just allergic to your bulls**t.
Ramsey: This is bigger than just Dante. This is bigger than just us. We have to stop this monster now.
Dante: [referring to Jakob and Brian] I got eyes on Uncle Muscle and the kid. Alright, everybody, remember the plan. Contain and kidnap. Thank you. No. No guns. I need this little s**t alive. At least for a while.
Aimes: Dom, there’s really nowhere to land.
Dominic Toretto: Who said anything about landing?
Dante: It’s the last lap. Check out my copilot.
Little Brian: Dad!
Dante: Who could’ve seen this coming? I mean, you know, except for me.
Dante: You raised a hell of a son, Dom. Time for me to step out from under your shadow. Thanks for showing me the light.
Dante: Looks like Uncle Muscle won’t be coming to the next barbecue.
Dante: You know how to beat your dad in a street race? Take away the streets.
Dante: [to Domonic] Did you hit me with a helicopter back there? Ow, you big brute.
Aimes: [to Dominic] See, that’s the problem with having a big family. You can’t protect them all.
Dante: [to Dominic] You are so predictable. You think everyone’s going to end up on your side? Problem is Aimes was mine first.
Dante: You know, Dominic, to become a real saint, you have to perform miracles. Or die a martyr. So what’s it going to be? I took your money. I took your freedom. And I’m going to take your family. And you’re going to die knowing that you couldn’t save your son.
Little Brian: Dad. I have faith.
Dominic Toretto: You made one mistake. You never took my car.
Dante: The suffering is over, Dom. It’s time for you to die.
Letty: [as a submarine surfaces with Gisele on it] No way.
Cipher: Still think my plan sucks?
Dante: [mid-credits lines, to Hobbs] You’ve done some dastardly, dirty deeds, Sheriff. You took the most important thing in my life from me. Dom drove the car. But you, you pulled the trigger. And now I’m going to make you suffer.
Dante: The devil is coming for you, lawman.
Luke Hobbs: Well, I ain’t hard to find, you sumb**ch.
