Just when you think the Fast and Furious franchise couldn't get any more over the top, they go and prove you wrong again.

Story is pretty average fair for the franchise. Taking two of the most popular actors and giving them their own offshoot ended up working just fine.

A lot of the action scenes (island scenes in particular) are SO absolutely unreal that you are required to completely suspend reality for much of the duration. There's nothing wrong with that (I mean, racing a submarine as it breaks through the ice coming toward you had to be topped?) as long as that's what you're looking for.

As with the entire franchise, it's a mood movie. Not earth shattering, but still a good time if you allow it to be. If you're the type to nitpick plot holes and storyboard gaps, avoid.

Like the waters in the ocean, life comes at us in waves. There's the anxiety and excitement of running into it at first, so refreshing. Then, when you aren't looking, they'll be a wave that crashes and wipes you out and it's all you can do to keep your head above water and breath. Now, caught up in the tides, a crucial choice is made. You must dig down deep and find the willpower to swim back to shore and plant your feet back in the sand or float out to sea.

I cannot remember the last movie, if any, had me as anxious as the first act of Waves. And if you're lucky enough to have tge opportunity to do so, after the emotional final act you will find yourself giving your closest loved ones a long hug.
