Ep. 19: At full throttle into stupidity: FAST X – Review & Analysis


Listen Later

Help! Unfortunately, this series has no end! Vin Diesel as Dom Toretto must once again defend the family, he is supported by many colleagues who also can not act. "Fast & Furious 10" ("Fast X") is a makeshift continuation of the fifth part: Dante (Jason Momoa) is the son of drug lord Hernan Reyes, who was once treated badly by the Torettos. Dante now wants to avenge his father, who was humiliated in the fifth part of the franchise. He also fights for the family - but for his own. As gruesomely crude and poorly told as the film is, if you look at it as a symptom, you can easily derive a social diagnosis from it: In this film, we encounter people without a world, and in the cinema audiences sit without a film. For dismemberment and fragmentation determine the form and content of this series.
