Ok Spy Action
A decent Action film with not a lot of new ideas to it. The idea of some sort of device that can hack into anything has been covered by just about every Spy franchise going, even Fast and the Furious. The action scenes are good and it tries to add some crazy advanced tech in order to help out the main character with a visual aid. If you like these type of action films you'll like it but nothing much original to see here.

A group of hens travel to a remote, exclusive Scottish island to celebrate in luxury with the bride to be. Some of the women know one another, some don’t, and all of them have secrets.

So when the chef is murdered and one of the hens goes missing presumed kidnapped, it’s a race against time to save her. And then the secrets start to come out…

This was fast paced and great fun. None of the characters were particularly nice, but I do love to hate characters in my books!

Read with relish on The Pigeonhole!

Hobbs and the family are back to face their most dangerous enemy yet, Dom in the 8th instalment of the 'Fast and Furious' franchise.
Like the last few films in the franchise, Fate tries to go bigger and louder with more action, guns, missiles, tanks and submarines although there is less time spent on the actual cars.

The film adds more of an element of mystery and questions the ties of family more than any of the other films when the team is betrayed by one of their own and they need to find out why,
I think 'Fate' has more stand out scenes than some of the other films in the franchise, mainly (and spoilers here) The prison break and Shaw shooting up the plane whilst carrying the baby.
I feel that we are now getting into the realms of 'more of the same', the first first few films tried to be a bit different but now we are getting 'The family gets hired by someone, mission goes bad, family need to sort it out' and this isn't necessarily a bad thing, trying to keep thing different is what lead to Tokyo drift, which most fans think is the worst of the franchise.
It's also nice knowing what you are going to get , a fast paced action film, with cars that is relatively safe for most people to watch. That is that, although there is some violence and peril, the language it quite tame, the humour is not to crude and, although there are plenty walking around with not much on, the franchise has never fallen into the trap of relying on sex to spice things up. Instead it keeps the pace fast, the story's (relatively) simple and the one liners fun.
Over all Fate of the Furious is a good addition to a franchise that is getting more over the top by the film.
