The stunts are more preposterous than ever, but the film is never thrilling, every interminable action scene enhanced by rather ropey CGI (the flames, in particular, look really bad). But Fast X is just dumb, and it's not even dumb fun. Seeing how each movie would top the one before in terms of craziness is what kept me entertained. I've been on board with the franchise since the start, sticking with it as it moved from the street racing world into more James Bond territory, the action getting more and more ridiculous with each chapter. But with the money still rolling in, nobody in Hollywood was going to end this cash cow thus we have Fast X, the first in a rumoured three part finale (until the inevitable reboot). This seemed to me like a good point to call it quits. Fast & Furious 9 did what a lot of franchises do at some point: it took the action into outer space.
