Critics have called them "car pornography" and "moron movies," but fans know the truth: this is a soap opera with explosions. It is a celebration of loyalty, diversity, and the idea that if you have a V8 engine and your loved ones by your side, you can jump a car between skyscrapers.
The Emotional Goodbye. Deckard Shaw bombs Dom’s house. The crew goes global to find a hacker known as "God’s Eye" (Nathalie Emmanuel). This film is tragic for two reasons: it is action perfection (cars parachuting out of planes, flying between skyscrapers in Abu Dhabi) and the final film for Paul Walker, who died during production.

Early 2000s Miami Vice. Vin Diesel sat this one out. Brian is now an ex-cop on the run. He teams up with childhood friend Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson) and undercover agent Monica Fuentes (Eva Mendes) to take down a drug lord named Carter Verone.
