They've been fast. They've been furious. Hell, they've even Tokyo drifted. But can the dynamic duo of Vin Diesel and Paul Walker keep the high-speed action going with Fast Five -- the fifth installment in the popular street racing franchise? In a nutshell: yes.

When last we saw these speedsters, FBI agent Brian O'Conner (Walker) walked away from the badge in order to free Dom Toretto (Diesel) from a life in prison. His daring rescue mission involved his girlfriend and Dom's sister, Mia (Jordana Brewster), a spectacular bus crash, and -- of course -- a fleet of souped-up roadsters. Since that time, the trio has blown across the globe, eluding the authorities at every turn. But when they're been backed into a corner in Rio de Janeiro, circumstances force them to pull the proverbial "one last job" in order to buy back their freedom.

This, of course, means assembling an elite team of drivers… a team that consists of our favorite characters from the previous Fast films. That includes Matt Schulze as Vince (from The Fast and the Furious), Tyrese Gibson as Roman (from 2 Fast 2 Furious), Ludacris as Tej (also from 2 Fast 2 Furious), Sung Kang as Han (from Tokyo Drift), Tego Calderon as Leo and Don Omar as Santos (from Fast & Furious), and Gal Gadot as Gisele (also from Fast & Furious). As this car circuit dream team puts its plan in motion, they know that their only shot of getting out for good means confronting the corrupt businessman who wants the group dead. But he's not the only one on their tail.

Hard-nosed federal agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) never misses his target. When he's assigned to track down Dom and Brian, he and his strike team launch an all-out assault to capture them. But as his men tear through Brazil, Hobbs learns he can't separate the good guys from the bad, relying only on his instincts to corner his prey before someone else runs them down first.

This nitrous-infused setup aside, we have to be honest with you: Fast Five isn't rocket science... nor should it be. Spoon-fed dialogue, slowmo action, hot cars and hotter babes is all that fans have come to expect from the series. Definitely not a disappointment in that arena, Fast Five is an incredibly fun ride that shrewdly takes the proceedings in a new direction to prevent the tried and true formula from getting too repetitive (this is the fifth film, after all -- just how much street racing can one franchise dish out?). As such, the movie switches gears about halfway in and becomes a caper pic -- a sort of Ocean's Eleven for the fast car demographic.

Yes, Fast Five has its share of weak and wooden performances (I'm looking at you, Walker!). But the crazy car action is topnotch, highlighted by two sequences in particular: a train robbery that sees Dom and Brian take a 1966 Corvette Grand Sport off a cliff; and an Act III race through the streets of Rio that finds Dom and Brian (each in separate cars) dragging a giant bank vault behind them. Havoc and mayhem ensue. Not to be outdone, the mano-a-mano brawl between The Rock and Diesel is this generation's Stallone vs. Schwarzenegger… only we actually get to see the fight realized up on the big screen.

At the end of my conclustion, I rate this movie a solid 5/5 for Hardcore action =D Enjoy
