Furious 7 (alternatively known as Fast & Furious 7 and Fast Seven)[4] is a 2015 American action film directed by James Wan and written by Chris Morgan and Reilly Sutherland. It is the seventh installment in The Fast and the Furious franchise. The film stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Djimon Hounsou, Kurt Russell, and Jason Statham. Furious 7 follows Dominic Toretto (Diesel), Brian O'Conner (Walker), and the rest of their team, who have returned to the United States to live normal lives after securing amnesty for their past crimes in Fast & Furious 6 (2013), until Deckard Shaw (Statham), a rogue special forces assassin seeking to avenge his comatose younger brother, puts the team in danger once again.

With the previous three installments set between 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003) and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006), Furious 7 is the first installment in the franchise to take place after Tokyo Drift. The film also marks the final film appearance of Walker, who died in a single-vehicle crash on November 30, 2013 with filming only half-completed.[5] Following Walker's death, filming was delayed for script rewrites, and his brothers, Caleb and Cody, were used as stand-ins to complete his remaining scenes.[6] These script rewrites completed the story arcs for both Walker and Brewster's characters, which were subsequently retired.

Plans for a seventh installment were first announced in February 2012 when Johnson stated that production on the film would begin after the completion of Fast & Furious 6. In April 2013, Wan, predominantly known for horror films, was announced to direct the film in place of Justin Lin, who left the franchise after directing the previous four installments. Casting began in the same month with the returns of Diesel and Walker, and an initial release date was set. Principal photography began in Atlanta, Georgia, in September 2013, resumed in April 2014 and ended in July 2014, with other filming locations including Los Angeles, Colorado, Abu Dhabi, and Tokyo.

Furious 7 premiered in Los Angeles on April 1, 2015, and was theatrically released in the United States on April 3, 2015, playing in 3D, IMAX 3D, and 4DX internationally. Upon release, the film became a critical and blockbuster success, with praise being aimed at the film's action sequences and its emotional tribute to Walker. The film grossed $397.6 million worldwide during its opening weekend, which is the sixth highest-grossing opening of all time. The film has grossed over $1.5 billion worldwide, making it the highest-grossing film of the franchise after just twelve days, the third highest-grossing film of 2015[7] and the eighth highest-grossing film of all time.

A sequel, The Fate of the Furious, was released on April 14, 2017.

Plot[edit]

After defeating Owen Shaw and his crew and securing amnesty for their past crimes,[N 1]Dominic 'Dom' Toretto, Brian O'Conner and the rest of their team have returned to the United States to live normal lives again. Brian begins to accustom himself to life as a father, while Dom tries to help Letty Ortiz regain her memory. Meanwhile, Owen's older brother, Deckard Shaw, breaks into the secure hospital that the comatose Owen is being held in and swears vengeance against Dom and his team, before breaking into Luke Hobbs' Diplomatic Security Service (DSS) office to extract profiles of Dom's crew. After revealing his identity, Shaw engages Hobbs in a fight, and escapes when he detonates a bomb that severely injures Hobbs. Dom later learns from his sister Mia that she is pregnant again and convinces her to tell Brian. However, a bomb, disguised in a package sent from Tokyo, explodes and destroys the Toretto house just seconds after Han, a member of Dom's team, is killed by Shaw in Tokyo.[N 2] Dom later visits Hobbs in a hospital, where he learns that Shaw is a rogue special forces assassin seeking to avenge his brother. Dom then travels to Tokyo to claim Han's body, and meets and races Sean Boswell, a friend of Han's who gives him personal items found at Han's crash site.

Back at Han's funeral in Los Angeles, Dom notices a car observing them, and after a chase, confronts its driver, who is revealed to be Shaw. Both prepare to fight, but Shaw flees when a covert ops team arrives and opens fire, led by Mr. Nobody. Nobody says that he will assist Dom in stopping Shaw if he helps him obtain God's Eye, a computer program that uses digital devices to track down a person, and save its creator, a hacker named Ramsey, from a mercenary named Mose Jakande. Dom, Brian, Letty, Roman Pearce, and Tej Parker then airdrop their cars over the Caucasus Mountains in Azerbaijan, ambush Jakande's convoy, and rescue Ramsey. The team then heads to Abu Dhabi, where a billionaire has acquired the flash drive containing God's Eye, and manages to steal it from the owner. With God's Eye near telecommunications repeaters, the team tracks down Shaw, who is waiting at a remote factory. Dom, Brian, Nobody and his team attempt to capture Shaw, but are ambushed by Jakande and his men and forced to flee while Jakande obtains God's Eye. At his own request, the injured Nobody is left behind to be evacuated by helicopter while Brian and Dom continue without him. To reduce their disadvantage, the crew returns to Los Angeles to fight Shaw, Jakande and his men. Meanwhile, Brian promises Mia that once they deal with Shaw, he will retire and fully dedicate himself to their family.

While Jakande pursues Brian and the rest of the team with a stealth helicopter and an aerial drone, Ramsey attempts to hack into God's Eye. Hobbs, seeing the team in trouble, leaves the hospital and destroys the drone with an ambulance. Brian engages Jakande's henchman Kiet and throws him down an elevator shaft before hijacking a signal repeater tower, allowing Ramsey to regain control of God's Eye and shut it down. Dom and Shaw engage in a one-on-one brawl on top of a public parking garage, before Jakande intervenes and attacks them both. Shaw is defeated when part of the parking garage collapses beneath him. Dom then launches his vehicle at Jakande's helicopter, tossing Shaw's bag of grenades onto its skids, before injuring himself when his car lands and crashes. Hobbs then shoots the bag of grenades from ground level, destroying the helicopter and killing Jakande. Dom is pulled from the wreckage of his car, believed to be dead. As Letty cradles Dom's body in her arms, she reveals that she has regained her memories, and that she remembers their wedding. Dom regains consciousness soon after, remarking, 'It's about time'.

Shaw is taken into custody by Hobbs and locked away in a secret, high-security prison. At a beach, Brian and Mia play with their son while Dom, Letty, Roman, Tej, and Ramsey observe, acknowledging that Brian is better off retired with his family. Dom silently leaves, Ramsey asks if he's gonna say goodbye. Dom says, 'It's never goodbye.' He drives away, but Brian catches up with him at a crossroad. As Dom remembers the times that he had with Brian, they bid each other farewell and drive off in separate directions.

Cast[edit]

Furious 7 marked the final film performance of Paul Walker, who died in a car accident on November 30, 2013. The film was dedicated to his memory.
  • Vin Diesel as Dominic Toretto, a former criminal and professional street racer who has retired and settled down with his wife, Letty.
  • Paul Walker as Brian O'Conner, a former FBI agent turned criminal and professional street racer who has retired and settled down with his partner, Mia, and their son, Jack. This was Walker's last role in a film before his death in a single-vehicle crash on November 30, 2013.
    • Caleb and Cody Walker, Paul's younger brothers, were used among others as stand-ins to complete his remaining scenes following their brother's death.[6]
  • Dwayne Johnson as Luke Hobbs, a DSS agent who allied with Dom and his team after their outings in Rio de Janeiro and Europe. Johnson initially said that if Universal Pictures pursued the accelerated development of a seventh film beginning in the summer, he would be unable to participate due to scheduling conflicts with filming on Hercules.[8] However, as production for the film would commence in September, he confirmed his return for the film, as Hercules would complete production in time to enable him to film a significant part.[9]
  • Michelle Rodriguez as Letty Ortiz, Dom's wife and a professional street racer, who was revealed to have suffered from amnesia after being presumed dead in Fast & Furious.
  • Tyrese Gibson as Roman Pearce, a former criminal and childhood friend of Brian from Barstow, and a member of Dom's team.

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

On October 21, 2011, the Los Angeles Times reported that Universal Studios was considering filming two sequels—Fast Six and Fast Seven—back-to-back with a single storyline running through both films. Both would be written by Chris Morgan and directed by Justin Lin, who had been the franchise's writer and director, respectively, since The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006).[27] On December 20, 2011, following the release of Fast Five, Vin Diesel stated that Fast Six would be split into two parts, with writing for the two films occurring simultaneously. On the decision, Diesel said:[28]

We have to pay off this story, we have to service all of these character relationships, and when we started mapping all that out it just went beyond 110 pages .. The studio said, 'You can't fit all that story in one damn movie!'[28]

However, in an interview on February 15, 2012, Dwayne Johnson stated that the two intended sequels would no longer be filmed simultaneously because of weather issues in filming locations, and that production on Fast Seven would only begin after the completion of Fast Six.[29]

In April 2013, during post-production of the retitled Fast & Furious 6, Lin announced that he would not return to direct a seventh film, as the studio wanted to produce the film on an accelerated schedule for release in summer 2014. This would have required Lin to begin pre-production on the sequel while performing post-production on Fast & Furious 6, which he considered would affect the quality of the final product. Despite the usual two-year gap between the previous installments, Universal chose to pursue a sequel quicker due to having fewer reliable franchises than its competitor studios.[30] However, subsequent interviews with Lin have suggested that the sixth film was always intended to be the final installment under his direction.[31]

In April 2013, Australian director James Wan, predominantly known for horror films, was announced as the sequel's director, with Neal H. Moritz and Michael Fottrell returning to produce and Morgan returning to write the script, his fifth in the franchise. On April 16, 2013, Diesel announced that the sequel would be released on July 11, 2014.[32] In May 2013, Diesel said that the sequel would feature Los Angeles, Tokyo, and the Middle East as locations.[33][34]

Filming[edit]

Principal photography began in early September 2013 in Atlanta, Georgia, with a casting call issued.[35][36]Abu Dhabi was also a filming location;[37] the production crew chose it over Dubai, as they would benefit from the Emirate's 30% rebate scheme.[38]Pikes Peak Highway in Colorado was closed in September to film some driving sequences.[39]

On September 16, the production filmed with Paul Walker and the Kimsey twins, playing his son, Jack,[40] in front of an Atlanta elementary school.[41] Han's funeral scene was filmed at Oakland Cemetery,[42] with extras needed for the scene being 'hot, hip and trendy cool types of all ethnicities between the ages of 18 and 45'.[43] On the evening of September 19, Lucas Black joined the production[44] for his sole scene with Diesel, in an Atlanta parking garage. Separate scenes with Walker also shot in the same location on the same night,[45] including one half of a phone conversation between his character and Jordana Brewster's. The day after, Diesel posted a picture from the night shoot with Black on his Facebook page.[46]

On October 24, over a month into the film's production, Johnson tweeted he had started shooting for the film after wrapping up on Hercules.[47] Five days later, Diesel posted the first photo of Johnson on the set, in the hospital scene.[48]

On November 30, 2013, while on a break for the Thanksgiving holiday, Walker, who portrayed Brian O'Conner, died in a single-vehicle accident.[49][50] The next day, Universal announced that production would continue after a delay that would allow the filmmakers to rework the film.[51] On December 4, 2013, Universal put production on hold indefinitely.[52] Wan later confirmed that the film had not been cancelled.[53][54][55] On December 22, 2013, Diesel announced on his Facebook page that the film would be released on April 10, 2015.[56] On February 27, 2014, The Hollywood Reporter reported that filming would resume on April 1, and that the cast and crew had headed to Atlanta to prepare for about eight more weeks of shooting.[57] Principal photography ended on July 10, 2014.[4]

Stunts[edit]

The Lockheed C-130 Hercules[58] was used in the film to carry the vehicles that would drop from 12,000 feet high, above the Sonoran Desert, making cars plummet at a speed of about 130 to 140 miles per hour.[59][60]

The 'air drop' sequence was conceived by stunt coordinator, Spiro Razatos, who also supervised on the franchise's two previous installments; Fast Five and Fast & Furious 6.[61][62] Razatos told Business Insider that he wanted to rely more on real stunts rather than CGI because he wanted the whole sequence to 'feel real' and fulfill audience's expectations.[61] The stunt took months of prep-solving problems. Cameras needed to be mounted onto cars in a way that they would not be destroyed when the cars landed, and the crew had to figure out a safe way to get the cars out of the plane. They performed a dry run with a single car falling out of a plane[61] and did this six times.[62] Cars were dropped from a Lockheed C-130 Hercules high above the Arizona desert, but close up shots that show the cars landing on a mountain road were filmed in Colorado.[62] There were two airplanes, flying at a height of 12,000 feet, each dropping two cars apiece.[61]BRS parachutes enabled with GPS were secured to each of the cars before dropping off the C-130 plane. At about 5,000 feet, the parachutes deployed.[62] Over 10 cameras were used for the sequence. In addition to cameras on the ground, there were cameras remotely operated inside the plane and another three mounted outside each car. Additional cameras were on a helicopter, where Razatos was stationed watching monitors. Three skydivers used in the shoot wore helmet cameras to help shoot the sequence from multiple angles. Sky divers would either jump out before cars or after them.[61] While all the cars landed on their drop zones, 70% landed perfectly and 30% didn't.[62] For the close-up scenes which show the actors inside their cars, a giant gimbal with a 360-degree range of movement were attached to each of the cars and was filmed against a green screen to reproduce their tumble through the sky.[63] The last part of the scene, which shows the cars hitting the road was shot separately. To get that right, the team set up a pulley system that had cars six to ten feet above the ground. When they were dropped from the cranes, the stuntmen who were sitting in the driver's seats raced their engines at about 35 to 40 miles per hour and slid to the ground at full speed. Those cranes were then later removed from the film with computers.[62][63] Razatos admits that the air drop sequence was 'all real' and that it would be 'hard to top'.[61][62]

The scene featuring Brian jumping off a bus off a cliff was performed by a stuntman and was all done without any computer graphics.[64] The shooting for this particular sequence along with the scene in which Dom and his team are pursuing to rescue Ramsey almost didn't happen due to the absence of tax break in Colorado.[64] The studio originally wanted to shoot the sequence in Georgia which provides tax breaks for film productions, and then they'd add woods in the background later in post production to which Razatos denied saying, 'the audience is going to know [it's CGI] and aren't going to feel good about it.'[64] Shooting finally took place in Colorado.[64]

A total of 340 cars were used in the film,[63] and more than 230 cars were destroyed in the making of the film, including several black Mercedes-Benzes, a Ford Crown Victoria, and a Mitsubishi Montero.[65] The film featured the on-screen destruction of a Lykan HyperSport by W Motors, valued at $3.4 million,[66] though the actual car destroyed was a less expensive model made for the film rather than one of the seven actual production HyperSports.[67] The mountain-highway chase scene on Colorado's Monarch Pass proved to be the most damaging sequence with over 40 vehicles being destroyed.[65][68] Only 10 percent of the action sequences in the film were computer-generated, and even then, much of the CGI was employed simply to erase the wires and other contraptions that were used to film real cars and drivers or to add a background.[63] It took more than 3,500 man-days to complete the various stunts of the film.[63] For safety reasons, stunt coordinator, Joel Kramer said that he doesn't let his drivers go above 50 miles per hour.[69]

Redevelopment of Walker's character[edit]

When I first heard the news, I was shell-shocked like everyone, and it took me days to come to terms with it. And then after that, heartbreaks started sinking in and we realized that Paul [Walker] wasn't going to be around with us anymore moving forward, and it was a really hard one. And finishing the movie was the last thing on my mind at that point. It was more the idea of .. picking up the pieces, going back on set, rallying the team, the cast, and the crew, and as the director, having to put on the brave face and champion and push everyone along. The idea of that was very daunting for me, but it became very apparent to all of us that we needed to finish this movie to honour Paul's legacy and to basically honour his memories .. it was about making this movie for Paul.

—James Wan, director of Furious 7[70]

In January 2014, Time reported that Walker's character, Brian O'Conner, would be retired instead of killed, and that new scenes would be developed in order to allow the franchise to continue without him.[71] To recreate Walker's likeness, the filmmakers hired Peter Jackson's Weta Digital visual effects house (which had previously produced the imagery of Gollum in The Lord of the Rings franchise and Caesar in the Planet of the Apes franchise).[72] Initially, what Weta could do was severely constrained by the quality of the reference materials available for Walker's physical appearance.[72] In April 2014, it was reported that Walker's brothers Caleb and Cody had been hired as stand-ins.[73] Their cooperation, along with their strong resemblance to their late brother, enabled the filmmakers to use Walker's likeness throughout the finished film.[72] That is, Weta Digital no longer needed to recreate Walker's entire body from scratch, and could focus on accurately modeling his face.[72] The final film showed Walker's face superimposed over the bodies of his brothers or actor John Brotherton in 350 visual effects shots.[72] 260 used a computer-generated face, while 90 repurposed actual footage of Walker's face borrowed from outtakes or older footage.[72]

Music[edit]

The musical score was composed by Brian Tyler, who scored the third, fourth, and fifth installments of the series.[74] 'There's an emotional component to Fast & Furious 7 that is unique', said Tyler about his experience scoring. 'I think people are really going to be amazed by it.'[75] A soundtrack album to the film was released by Atlantic Records on March 17, 2015.[76]

Songs featured in the film include:

  • 'Go Hard or Go Home' (Wiz Khalifa & Iggy Azalea)[77]
  • 'Ride Out' (Kid Ink, Tyga, Wale, YG & Rich Homie Quan)[78]
  • 'See You Again' (Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth)

  • 'Tempest' (Deftones)
  • 'Meneo' (Fito Blanko)
  • 'Payback' (Juicy J, Kevin Gates, Future and Sage the Gemini)

Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth's 'See You Again', which plays over the film's emotional ending, received both popular and critical acclaim. It was shortlisted for the Song of the Year for the BBC Music Awards and was nominated for Best Original Song at the 73rd Golden Globe Awards.[79] 'See You Again' was the best selling-song of 2015 worldwide, with combined sales and track-equivalent streams of 20.9 million units according to IFPI.[80]

Release[edit]

The film, which began principal photography in September 2013, was originally designed as a Summer 2014 release. It was put on hold following the fatal car crash that claimed Paul Walker's life on November 30, 2013. The production resumed in April 2014. In October 2014, Universal revealed that the film was officially titled Furious 7,[81] and that the debut trailer would be released during an interactive fan event over social media. In the days leading up to the event, seven-second, behind-the-scenes videos were released, titled '7 Seconds of 7'.[81] On February 1, 2015, a new trailer featuring all-new footage debuted during Super Bowl XLIX.

The film was originally scheduled for release on April 10, 2015, but it was announced that the film's release date had been brought forward a week to April 3, 2015 (the same release date from the 2009 film Fast & Furious). The official announcement in change of date was made in July 2014.[82]Furious 7 premiered at the SXSW Film Festival at 12:07 a.m. at Austin's Paramount Theatre on March 16, 2015.[83] On March 27, 2015, a free standalone expansion for the video game Forza Horizon 2, titled Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious, was released to help promote the film.[84] For its global premiere at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles on April 1, 2015, IMAX Corporation installed a new laser projection which was the first such installation in the U.S. and the second worldwide, following The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, which opened at Scotiabank Theatre in Toronto in December 2014.[85]

Unauthorized distribution[edit]

According to infringement tracking site Excipio, the film was downloaded illegally 2.59 million times in four days (April 2–6) through various torrent sites with India being the top country for the illegal downloading with 578,000 downloads followed by Pakistan (321,000), China (289,000), the U.S. (251,000) and the UK (101,000).[86] A survey revealed that most Indians tended to resort to copyright violation due to lack of availability, pricing concerns, soaring internet costs and censorship, but the main reason being that most of the films are released months after their US dates.[87] It was illegally downloaded 44,794,877 times in 2015, making it the most pirated film released that year and the second most pirated film overall, behind Interstellar which saw over 46.7 million illegal downloads the same year.[88]

In its second weekend, the film expanded to 4,022 theaters, thereby breaking its own record of being the widest Universal Pictures release ever, and earned an estimated $59.6 million, declining by 60%, which is the third best second weekend holdover for a pre-summer film release.[124][125] It became the highest-grossing film in the Fast & Furious franchise, doing so only in ten days (the previous record which was held by Fast & Furious 6 took fifteen weeks to reach its entire lifetime gross of $238.67 million).[124][126] It also set the record for the biggest second-weekend April gross.[127] It topped the box office for four consecutive weekends,[128] becoming the first film to top the box office for four consecutive weekends since The Hunger Games in March 2012 and one of only 29 films since 1985 to have had four straight box office wins during their theatrical runs, although this highly depends on many factors, including the release time and the competition around.[129][130] It ended its theatrical run on July 24, 2015, playing in theaters for a total of 112 days[3] and became the thirty-first highest-grossing film of all time,[131] the fifth highest-grossing film of 2015,[132] the highest-grossing film in The Fast and the Furious franchise,[133] the second highest-grossing Universal film of 2015 (behind Jurassic World and Minions),[134] and the fifth highest-grossing film distributed by Universal.[134]

Outside North America[edit]

Outside the US and Canada, the film became the third highest-grossing film,[135]the highest-grossing Universal distributed film,[135] and the highest-grossing 2015 film.[136] On April 26, 2015, it became the third film in cinematic history to earn over $1 billion overseas.[137] It opened on Wednesday, April 1, 2015, in 12 countries, earning $16.9 million (including previews from 22 countries).[138] It opened in 33 more countries on Thursday, April 2, for a total of 45 countries, earning $43 million from 8,407 screens, marking Universal Pictures overseas' highest-grossing Thursday ever, and for a two-day total of $60 million.[139] It added 20 more countries on Friday, April 3, earning $59.2 million from 9,935 screens in 63 countries, for a three-day total of $120.6 million.[140][141] The film set all-time opening-day records in 15 countries including Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, India, Indonesia, the Middle East and Thailand,[139][142][143][144][145] and opening day records for Universal Pictures in 40 countries including Australia, Brazil, Germany, Italy and Mexico.[140] Through Sunday, April 5, it earned a 4-day opening weekend total of $250.4 million from 10,683 screens in 64 countries, which is the fourth-highest international opening ever, in all which it reached first place at the box office[103][119][146][147] It earned an IMAX opening weekend total of $7.5 million from 175 IMAX screens, breaking the record for the biggest April IMAX gross, previously held by The Winter Soldier ($6.43 million).[103] It set opening weekend records in 29 countries including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Egypt, Malaysia, Mexico, Middle East, Romania, Taiwan, Thailand, Venezuela and Vietnam.[103][146] In its second weekend, it held the top spot and fell gradually by 20.4% to $198.7 million (including China's opening day gross) from 18,374 screens in 66 territories as a result of minor competition, and remaining at number one in all 63 territories where it was released the previous week. It added three new countries in its second weekend; China, Russia and Poland.[148] Earning $167.9 million in its third weekend, it topped the box office outside of North America for three consecutive weekends,[149] until surpassed by Avengers: Age of Ultron in its fourth weekend.[150]

The film was a massive box office hit in China. It opened there on April 12 and set an all-time midnight run record with $8.05 million[148][151] and an opening day record with $68.8 million.[148][152] Its opening day included a record breaking $5 million from IMAX run (also breaking Transformers 4's former record of $3.4 million).[148] Through its opening week (April 12–19), it earned $245.9 million.[149][153] For the weekend alone, it took in $88.7 million from 5,454 screens (Friday to Sunday) and $182.4 million (Monday to Sunday) at the Chinese box office. It grossed CN¥1 billion in five days—the fastest time in which that has been achieved—and soon became the highest-grossing foreign film ever in China.[149][153][154] In 15 days, its gross in China surpassed those in Canada and the United States[155] and became the first film in China to make more than 2 billion renminbi.[156] Its success has been credited to China Film Group Corporation, the state-owned film distributor, which had invested considerably in the film, reportedly taking a 10% stake.[157]

The largest openings outside North America and China occurred in Mexico ($21.5 million), the UK, Ireland and Malta ($18.7 million), Germany ($15.9 million), Russia and the CIS ($15.9 million), Brazil ($11.4 million), France ($11.4 million), Australia ($11.3 million), Taiwan ($10.3 million), Argentina ($9.3 million), Korea ($8.9 million), India ($8.7 million), Italy ($8.2 million), Malaysia ($7.3 million), Spain ($6.3 million), Venezuela ($6 million), Thailand ($6 million), Colombia ($5.2 million)[146][148] and Pakistan ($2.4 million). In the UAE, where parts of the film was shot, it opened with $4.8 million.[146] Out of the 68 countries it was released in, the only country not to open at number one was Japan (locally released with the title, Wild Speed: Skymission) where it earned $6.2 million in its opening weekend, behind Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' ($7.6 million).[149] and Detective Conan: Sunflowers of Inferno ($7.4 million).[158] It became the highest-grossing film of all time in Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Africa, the UAE, Uruguay, Trinidad and Vietnam and Universal Pictures' highest-grossing film of all time in 29 countries including Argentina, China, Ecuador, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Lebanon, Malaysia, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, Thailand, Turkey, UAE and Vietnam.[149] In Latin America, it became the second highest-grossing film ($200 million), the first time Universal has reached the milestone and the second film in history to earn more than $200 million after The Avengers.[159] In total earnings, the largest countries outside the U.S. and Canada are China ($391.2 million), the UK, Ireland and Malta ($60 million), Mexico ($50.9 million), Brazil, ($46.5 million) and Germany ($40.3 million).[160][161][162] It grossed a total of $39 million in IMAX ticket sales in China, the biggest ever in the market.[163]

Critical response[edit]

Furious 7 received positive reviews, with critics praising the film's action set pieces, performances, and its poignant tribute to Walker.[164] Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes reports an 81% rating based on 253 reviews, and an average rating of 6.6/10. The website's critical consensus reads, 'Serving up a fresh round of over-the-top thrills while adding unexpected dramatic heft, Furious 7 keeps the franchise moving in more ways than one.'[165] On Metacritic the film has a score of 67 out of 100, based on 44 critics, indicating 'generally favorable reviews'.[166] In CinemaScore polls conducted during the opening weekend, cinema audiences gave Furious 7 an average grade of 'A' on an A+ to F scale.[167]

The film received highly positive reviews upon release at a secret screening at the 2015 SXSW Film Festival on March 16, 2015. Ramin Setoodeh of Variety noted that fans started lining up outside four hours before the film was scheduled to start. The film closed with a tribute to Walker, which left many in the theater 'holding back tears'.[168] Critic Dave Palmer gave the film 7/10, saying, 'Furious 7 is the type of movie Michael Bay has spent his entire career trying to make: filled with shots of scantily clad women, fast cars, and clever one liners'.[169]

A.O. Scott of The New York Times gave the film two and a half stars out of five and said, 'Furious 7 extends its predecessors' inclusive, stereotype-resistant ethic. Compared to almost any other large-scale, big-studio enterprise, the Furious brand practices a slick, no-big-deal multiculturalism, and nods to both feminism and domestic traditionalism.'[170]

John DeFore of The Hollywood Reporter criticized the film however, describing it as 'stupidly diverting', saying the running time was 'overinflated'; he compared watching the film to a morbid game, in addition to criticizing the screenplay.[171]

Sequel[edit]

Regarding a possible sequel, Vin Diesel said:

I was trying to keep it close to the vest throughout the release. Paul Walker used to say that [an eighth film] was guaranteed. And in some ways, when your brother guarantees something, you sometimes feel like you have to make sure it comes to pass .. so if fate has it, then you'll get this when you hear about it. [Furious 7] was for Paul, [the eighth film] is from Paul.[185]

Diesel further hinted at an eighth film on Jimmy Kimmel Live! when he stated that Kurt Russell's character would span multiple films. He also stated that the film would take place in New York City.[186] Chris Morgan wrote his sixth script in the franchise, while Neal H. Moritz returned to produce. Moritz later stated, '[The story] is going to have to be something enticing for all of us .. it has to be as good as or better [than Furious 7]'.[187]

At the 2015 CinemaCon in Las Vegas, Diesel announced the film for an April 14, 2017 release date.[188][189] On August 16, 2015, at the 2015 Teen Choice Awards (where Furious 7 received the award for Choice Movie – Action and Walker received the award for Choice Movie Actor – Action), Diesel gave the film the initial title Fast 8.[190] In September 2015, Diesel stated that the script had almost been completed,[191] and expressed interest in Rob Cohen, who directed the first film, to direct the eighth installment.[192] On October 14, 2015, Diesel announced on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that Straight Outta Compton director F. Gary Gray would direct the film.[193][194]

In July 2015, Moritz said that Walker's character, Brian O'Conner, would not appear in the film, following the use of CGI in the previous film after Walker died in a single-vehicle accident on November 30, 2013, with Moritz stating that his character had 'moved on'.[195] It had previously been reported that Paul's younger brother, Cody Walker, would either join the cast in a new role,[196] or replace his older brother in the role of O'Conner;[197] however, it was later announced that the character will not return to the franchise.[198] Moritz also said that the film would shift the focus of the franchise from a series of heist films to a spy caper, following a similar change in focus from street racing in Fast Five (2011).[199] In December 2016, the film was retitled The Fate of the Furious.[200]

Fast Five (alternatively known as Fast & Furious 5[1] or Fast & Furious 5: Rio Heist[4]) is a 2011 American heistaction film directed by Justin Lin and written by Chris Morgan. It is the fifth installment in The Fast and the Furious franchise. It was released first in Australia on April 20, 2011, and then in the United States on April 29, 2011. Fast Five follows Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker), and Mia Toretto (Jordana Brewster) as they plan a heist to steal $100 million from corrupt businessman Hernan Reyes (Joaquim de Almeida) while being pursued for arrest by U.S. Diplomatic Security Service (DSS) agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson).

While developing Fast Five, Universal Studios deliberately departed from the street racing theme prevalent in previous films in the series, to transform the franchise into a heist action series involving cars. By doing so, they hoped to attract wider audiences that might otherwise be put off by a heavy emphasis on cars and car culture. Fast Five is considered the transitional film in the series, featuring only one car race and giving more attention to action set pieces such as gun fights, brawls, and the heist of $100 million. The production mounted a comprehensive marketing campaign, marketing the film through social media, virtual games, cinema chains, automobile manufacturers, and at NASCAR races.

Fast Five achieved financial success, breaking box office records for the highest-grossing April opening weekend and the second-highest spring opening weekend, and surpassing Fast & Furious (2009) to become the highest-grossing film in the franchise. Fast Five grossed over $625 million worldwide, making it number 66 on the all-time worldwide list of highest-grossing films, in unadjusted dollars, and the seventh-highest-grossing film of 2011.

Fast Five received mostly positive reviews, with critics praising the combination of comedy and 'action sequences that toy idly with the laws of physics';[5] some labeled it the best film in the series.[6] Johnson was singled out for praise in numerous reviews for his performance, with critics calling him 'the best thing, by far, in Fast Five'[7] and remarking that scenes shared by Johnson and Diesel were often the 'best moments'.[6] Despite the positive response, many were critical of the film's running time, considering it too long, and others criticized the treatment of women, stating '[Women] cameo strikingly in buttock form. Others actually have first names.'[8] South American reviewers were critical of the film's portrayal of Rio de Janeiro as a haven for drug trafficking and corruption, labeling it a 'stereotype'.[9] A sequel, Fast & Furious 6, was released in May 2013 to box office success, surpassing Fast Five as the highest-grossing film in the franchise. Another sequel, Furious 7, released in April 2015, soon surpassed Fast & Furious 6, grossing over $1.5 billion worldwide.

Plot[edit]

When Dominic 'Dom' Toretto is being transported to Lompoc Prison by bus, his sister Mia Toretto and friend Brian O'Conner lead an assault on the bus, causing it to crash and freeing Dom. While the authorities search for them, the trio escapes to Rio de Janeiro. Awaiting Dom's arrival, Mia and Brian join their friend Vince and other participants on a job to steal three cars from a train. Brian and Mia discover that agents from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) are also on the train and that the cars are seized property. When Dom arrives with the rest of the participants, he realizes that the lead participant, Zizi, is only interested in stealing one car - a Ford GT40. Dom has Mia steal the car herself before he and Brian fight Zizi and his henchmen, during which Zizi kills the DEA agents assigned to the vehicles. Dom and Brian are captured and brought to crime lord Hernan Reyes, the owner of the cars and Zizi's boss. Reyes orders the pair be interrogated to discover the location of the car, but they manage to escape and retreat to their safehouse.

While Brian, Dom, and Mia examine the car to discover its importance, Vince arrives and is caught trying to remove a computer chip from it. He admits he was planning to sell the chip to Reyes on his own, and Dom forces him to leave. Brian investigates the chip and discovers it contains the complete financial details of Reyes' criminal empire, including the locations of US$100 million in cash.

Diplomatic Security Service agent Luke Hobbs and his team arrive in Rio to arrest Dom and Brian. With the help of local officer Elena Neves, they travel to Dom's safehouse, but find it under assault by Reyes' men. Brian, Dom and Mia escape; Dom suggests they split up and leave Rio, but Mia announces she is pregnant with Brian's child. Dom agrees to stick together and suggests they steal the money from Reyes to start a new life. They organize a team to perform the heist: Han, Roman, Tej, Gisele, Leo, and Santos. Vince later joins the team after saving Mia from being captured by Reyes' men. The crew infiltrate one of Reyes' facilities and set fire to the money there, baiting him into consolidating his money at a single location - a secure vault inside a police station.

Hobbs and his team eventually find and arrest Dom, Mia, Brian, and Vince. While transporting them to the airport for extradition to the United States, the convoy is attacked by Reyes' men, who kill Hobbs' team. Hobbs and Elena are saved by Dom, Brian, Mia, and Vince as they fight back and escape, but Vince is shot in the process and dies. Wanting to avenge his murdered team, Hobbs and Elena agree to help with the heist. The gang break into the police station and tear the vault holding Reyes' money from the building using their cars, dragging it through the city. After an extensive police chase, Dom makes Brian continue without him while he attacks the police and the pursuing Reyes, using the vault attached to his car to smash their vehicles. Brian returns and kills Zizi while Reyes is badly injured by Dom's assault. Hobbs arrives on the scene and executes Reyes to avenge his team. Though Hobbs refuses to let Dom and Brian go free, he gives them a 24-hour head start to escape on the condition they leave the vault as it is. However, the vault is empty as it had been switched during the chase. After splitting the cash (Vince's share is given to his family), they go their separate ways.

On a tropical beach, Brian and a visibly pregnant Mia relax. They are met by Dom and Elena. Brian challenges Dom to a final, no-stakes race to prove who is the better driver.

In a mid-credits scene, Hobbs is given a file by Monica Fuentes concerning the hijack of a military convoy in Berlin, where he discovers a recent photo of Dom's former girlfriend Letty, who had been presumed dead.

Diesel and Lin then redesigned the role for Johnson.[18] Johnson wanted to work with Universal Studios, citing their support for him during his transition from wrestling to acting.[19] He described the role as a former bounty hunter turned US Marshal[20] and as 'the government's version of the best bounty hunter on the planet'.[19] He undertook an extensive daily workout regime to enlarge his physique, wanting his character to appear as a 'hunter' and to be formidable enough to present a credible threat to the protagonists.[19]

Production [edit]

Development[edit]

By February 3, 2010, it was confirmed that a fifth film, referred to as Fast Five, was going into production in the Fast and Furious series, and that a sixth film was being planned. It was also confirmed that Diesel, Walker, writer Chris Morgan and producer Neal H. Moritz would all return to their roles for the new installment.[26][27] Moritz said that, following the success of Fast & Furious (2009), which had reunited Diesel, Brewster, Walker and Rodriguez from the original film, the production wanted to bring them back again for the next one. Diesel felt that the story between the characters portrayed by himself and Walker should continue, envisioning it as three chapters, of which Fast Five would be the last. Diesel also wanted to bring back a variety of characters that had been in previous films without interacting, put them together and 'have a lot of fun'.[28]

The production had originally intended to film on location in Rio de Janeiro. However, the Puerto Rican government offered tax incentives totaling nearly $11 million, influencing the decision to film there, using Puerto Rico to represent Rio de Janeiro.[19][29]

Universal intended to transform the series from street-racing action into a series of heist films with car chases in the vein of The Italian Job (1969) and The French Connection (1971), with Fast Five as the transitional movie.[30] In April 2011, Universal chairman Adam Fogelson said:[30]

The question putting Fast Five and Fast Six together for us was: Can we take it out of being a pure car culture movie and into being a true action franchise in the spirit of those great heist films made 10 or 15 years ago?

Fogelson said that the racing aspect had put a 'ceiling' on the number of people willing to see films in the series, and that, by turning it into a series where car driving ability is just one aspect of the film, he hoped to increase the series' audience.[30]

Writing[edit]

'For me, each chapter in this franchise is an extension of the first one, and they each get bigger. It is always a privilege to be able to revisit a good character-driven story. This franchise is more than street racing and tuner cars; it really is about this larger family and community of racers.'

— Morgan on his approach to writing the film[28]

Lin wanted to explore the elements of 'freedom and family' in the film and collaborated with Morgan towards that ideal, both having worked together on previous installments of the franchise. Morgan worked with Diesel to produce a story arc that would further explore and develop Diesel's character.[31] An idea involving heisting a large safe had been conceived by Morgan during the production of Fast & Furious, but that film's premise did not work with how Morgan envisioned it. He later incorporated it into Fast Five.[32]

Filming[edit]

On a budget of $125 million,[2] the shooting of Fast Five was scheduled for July and August 2010.[33] Shooting had started by July 14, 2010,[34] but it took longer than forecast: the film was still being shot in early November 2010.[35]

Three film units worked simultaneously. The main cast were required to travel to Rio at the behest of Lin, who felt it important to understand the area and its culture to give the film a good sense of place.[36] Diesel agreed that it was important to shoot key scenes in Brazil, commenting 'we were able to shoot where other productions might not be able to shoot because our franchise has such good street cred.'[37]

The Rio film unit captured aerial shots of the city including Sugarloaf Mountain, Fort Copacabana, Ipanema Beach, the Dona Marta lookout point and the Christ the Redeemer statue. Establishing shots of the heist team members were taken as each arrived in Rio. Gibson was filmed arriving in character at Galeão International Airport but, when it became publicly known that a scene was being shot at the airport, the cast and crew were mobbed. A similar situation occurred while Ludacris was shooting a scene in which his character buys a car to drive around the city.[36] A scene where the completed heist team walk down a beach was filmed in Copacabana.[36]

The rooftop chase across favelas was filmed in Puerto Rico, where the production could have more control over the area. The main and second filming units began filming in and around the capital, San Juan. The island's mixture of tropical greenery and wide streets allowed the production to re-create the densely populated favelas of Rio while completing the larger action and external scenes without incident. Production designer Peter Wenham had the task of transforming Puerto Rico and Atlanta into the previously scouted Rio locations in four weeks, as the production deemed Rio unsuitable for filming many of the larger scenes. Wenham had to reinforce buildings to support the heavy camera equipment, and to alter the colors of more than 30 buildings in the city to make them suitable for filming. His team needed to alter the buildings and strew debris to make the area look disheveled and appear as a Rio shantytown. Wenham remarked that, though the development was difficult, in part due to the heat, it was 'a walk in the park' compared with filming in the Rio favelas themselves.[11] Wenham aimed to maintain a monochromatic color scheme for the film, with muted blacks and grays, including his choice of colors for the cars used. He only chose to add a multitude of colors in the favela set.[38] The Teodoro Moscosco bridge connecting San Juan to neighboring Isla Verde was used to film the final showdown between Dom and Reyes, while a U.S. Navy base pier 60 miles outside San Juan stood in for the bridge for scenes involving the vault smashing cars.[39][29] Action scenes were also filmed in the Hato Rey and Río Piedras districts of San Juan.[39]

A foot pursuit in which Diesel, Brewster and Walker are chased across favela rooftops by Johnson and his team was filmed over the course of a week in the small hillside town of Naranjito, Puerto Rico. The scene was considered difficult to shoot, as pathways were slippery from moist tropical heat and the scene involved actors and stunt doubles running while avoiding dogs, chickens and other stray animals loose in the area. To capture the scene, a 420-foot cable-camera rig was used to allow for a fast moving, birds-eye view of the action, and cameras on cranes were set up on rooftops and in alleyways.[40] Walker and Brewster made multiple takes of the conclusion of the scene, requiring them to jump nearly 30 feet from a building onto a waiting safety mat.[11] In total the production employed 236 technicians, 13,145 extras, and generated 16,824 room nights at hotels, contributing $27 million to the Puerto Rican community.[29]

Filming moved to Atlanta, Georgia for the final phase.[38] Wenham and his team transformed a defunct train yard into an abandoned auto plant used by the protagonists as their headquarters.[41] Redesigning the train yard took place over several months. It was required to allow enough space for stunt drivers to drive into the building, and it had to include an integrated lighting system. The design team removed walls, hauled out old railway cars, suspended rusted car parts and auto-plant car rails, and constructed smaller buildings within the main building to transform the site. With twenty-five pages of script to shoot in a limited time, cinematographer Stephen Windon and his team spent three weeks setting up a series of high-powered, motorized lights in the rafters of the building, that could be controlled remotely to allow lighting to be altered quickly while fully illuminating the set.[42] An exterior scene involving Diesel and Walker attending a car party, involving several high-performance cars, was filmed near the Georgia Dome.[42] The train heist scene was filmed in Rice, California over three weeks.[43]

A brawl scene between Johnson's and Diesel's characters was considered difficult to choreograph. The characters were written to be equally formidable, so the fight was punctuated with moments of character development, as Moritz felt this made the fight more exciting. The scene required several weeks of rehearsal and more than a week of filming by the actors and their stunt doubles, who incurred several minor injuries.[44]

Vehicle stunts[edit]

Most of the climatic scenes were filmed in the Milla de Oro district in Hato Rey, Puerto Rico.

The climactic vault heist required four weeks of preparation with every scene and camera angle determined in advance.[45] The filmmakers hired stunt director Spiro Razatos and stunt coordinator Jack Gill to direct the second-unit action filming.[46] The pair initially began research for the stunt by testing the capabilities of the prop vaults and the Dodge Chargers driven by Diesel and Walker. Filmed on the streets of Hato Rey,[47] the chaotic scene demanded specific timing that had to be synchronized with the various character interactions also occurring during the scene. Razatos chose to use a series of camera cars including a crane-mounted camera atop a Porsche Cayenne, which allowed him to film from a variety of angles and heights while the vehicles were in motion, and a Subaru Impreza with a steel cage built around it that allowed for tracking shots.[46] The Subaru's driver Allen Padelford would occasionally accidentally collide with the vault, creating a shower of sparks that inadvertently became useful footage. Padelford also developed a top-mount dual-drive system for the Chargers that allowed a stunt driver to control the vehicle from the roof, while the actor focused on their performance inside the car.[46]

Six versions of the 8-foot high vault were built, each with specific uses. One of the vaults was a façade built onto the front of a semitruck and was used for filming close shots of the vault destroying street cars. Another vault was a reinforced, four-wheel self-drive vehicle that was connected to 30-foot cables and dragged through the streets of San Juan by the two stunt Dodge Chargers.[48] The four-ton vault was driven by stunt driver Henry Kingi, who had to wear a temperature controlled suit to compensate for the temperatures within that could exceed 100 degrees.[39] A scene where the vault tumbled as the cars rounded a corner was a practical effect, and the result was more violent than the filmmakers had anticipated.[45] Over 200 vehicles were destroyed by the vault during filming.[47] Several stunts had to be cut including a final scene that would have seen the vault hanging over the edge of the Teodoro Moscoso Bridge. This stunt was abandoned when it was determined that even the powerful Chargers would not be able to support the vault's weight.[45]

The train heist presented several challenges. The filmmakers were required to effectively purchase a length of working railroad for filming and the trains necessary to ride the tracks. Then trucks had to be built that could race the train and meet the needs of the heist itself. Lin also required that the cars being carried on the train be able to jump out of the train at full speed. The scene took precise execution.[47] The filmmakers chose to use cars they could cheaply replicate for the train heist—a 1972 De Tomaso Pantera, a 2007 Chevrolet Corvette GS Roadster, and a Ford GT40—to avoid the expense of replacing a genuine $2 million Ford GT40.[47]

Music[edit]

Fast Five (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) was released on iTunes on April 25, 2011, and on CD on May 3, 2011, by ABKCO Records. It features many reggaeton and rhythmic Latin tracks, including songs by Don Omar, Busta Rhymes and many others, with three pieces from Tyler's original score for the film: 'Assembling the Team', 'Mad Skills' and 'Fast Five Suite'.[49] Music guide AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars out of 5, commenting that 'The goal here is to accompany a picture that, as usual, is packed with driving sequences involving flashy cars, beautiful, scantily clad women, and muscled men. That goal is accomplished with this beat-heavy music and the gruff, aggressive Latin rapping.'[49] Ludacris collaborated with Slaughterhouse and Claret Jai for the soundtrack's lead single, 'Furiously Dangerous'.[50]

The film score was released on May 3, 2011, by Varèse Sarabande. The release has 25 tracks and plays for 78 minutes.[51] The score spent four weeks on the Billboard 200, peaking as high as number 60 and reaching number 24 on the digital albums chart and number 5 on the soundtrack-only chart.[51]

Marketing[edit]

An example of Fast Five's cross-media marketing. A Regal Entertainment Group-branded, virtual drive-in theater in Car Town, shows the trailer for Fast Five.

The first trailer for Fast Five was released on Diesel's Facebook page on December 14, 2010, in what was believed to be the first ever use of this marketing approach.[52][53] At the time, Diesel's page had over 20 million subscribers (one of the top five personal sites of celebrities), providing a wide audience for the trailer. Following this debut, other members of the cast with personal social media platforms released the teaser trailer to their own fans.[52][53]

The Facebook game Car Town by Cie Games and the theater chain Regal Entertainment Group (REG) collaborated with Universal in a cross-media marketing promotion. Car Town allowed players to view the trailer for the film in an REG-branded, in-game drive-in theater and race around a virtual Rio de Janeiro. The game also featured missions and locations based on the plot of the film, while allowing players to race against Fast Five characters and take part in a bank heist. REG offered players of Car Town the ability to purchase tickets in-game via Fandango for films at REG theaters. By buying these tickets in-game, players were given promotional codes which in turn allowed them to unlock a virtual 1970s Dodge Charger, used by Diesel's character in the original film. REG promoted the partnership between the film and the game in their theaters across 37 states, online and through social media, while Universal promoted it via their own Facebook, Twitter and YouTube sites.[54][55] In October 2011, it was claimed that over 200 million races had taken place within the virtual Rio de Janeiro environment in the six months since the campaign's April launch.[56]

Automobile manufacturer Dodge collaborated with Universal in marketing the film, supplying several Dodge Chargers to use in it.[57] The partnership with Dodge included the 'Fast Five' Dodge Charger driven by Robby Gordon in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series throughout April 2011 – the opening month of Fast Five. Dodge also sponsored the world premiere of the film in Rio de Janeiro.[57]

Release[edit]

The premiere of Fast Five took place on April 15, 2011, at the Cinépolis Lagoon theater in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[58] It was hosted by actress Susie Castillo and sponsored by car manufacturer Dodge.[57][59]

Box office[edit]

Fast Five grossed $209.8 million (33.5%) in the United States and Canada and $416.3 million (66.5%) in other territories for a total of $626.1 million.[3] Worldwide, it is the seventy-first highest-grossing film,[60] the seventh highest-grossing 2011 film,[61] the fourth highest-grossing film in the Fast & Furious series (behind Fast & Furious 6, The Fate of the Furious, and Furious 7),[62] and the fifth highest-grossing Universal film.[63] It achieved a worldwide opening weekend of $109.6 million.[64] The film reached a peak of number 55 on the list of all-time highest-grossing films worldwide in October 2011.[60] It became the highest-grossing film of the series in worldwide grosses (as well as separately in the US and Canada, and outside the US and Canada)[65] but was out-grossed in all three cases by Fast & Furious 6.[66]

Outside the United States and Canada

Fast Five is the ninth highest-grossing 2011 film,[67] the third highest-grossing film of the Fast and Furious franchise (behind Fast 6 and Furious 7)[62] and the fifth highest-grossing Universal film.[68] It was initially released in Australia on Wednesday, April 20, 2011 – nine days before the release date in North America – followed by releases in the UK, South Korea and New Zealand. The earlier start in these countries was timed to coincide with their Easter holidays[69] and avoided competition from forthcoming summer films,[70] although this placed it in direct competition with Thor in some countries. By the end of its opening weekend, the film had accrued a total of $23.4 million from these countries.[71][72] On its second weekend, Fast Five earned $46.3 million across 3,139 theaters in 14 countries, ranking first at the box office in each of its ten new markets. For the overall weekend, it ranked second behind Thor.[73] In the third weekend of release, Fast Five topped the box office in a further 44 countries, playing in a total of 6,979 theaters across 58 countries. It ranked first during the weekend with $85.8 million.[74][75] It set an opening-weekend record in the United Arab Emirates ($1.65 million), holding this record for two weeks before being out-grossed by Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides ($2.24 million).[76]

Across all markets, the film scored Universal's highest-grossing opening weekend in Russia, Spain, Turkey,[77] Argentina, Brazil,[78] Chile, France,[78] India, Italy,[78] Malaysia, Mexico,[78] the Netherlands, Thailand, the United Arab Emirates and Vietnam.[74]

United States and Canada

Fast Five is the third highest-grossing film in the Fast and Furious franchise (behind Fast 6 and Furious 7),[62] the sixteenth highest-grossing Universal film,[79] the sixth highest-grossing 2011 film,[80] the second highest-grossing heist/caper film, behind Inception,[81] and the second highest-grossing car-racing film, behind Cars.[82] According to Box Office Mojo, Fast Five is one of the most successful sequels of 2011, when taking into account that it is one of few to have outperformed the immediately-preceding instalment of its franchise in the US and Canada.[83]

Fast Five opened on April 29, 2011, in 3,644 theaters,[3] It took $3.8 million in midnight showings, setting new records for the Fast and the Furious series and Universal[84] (both records overtaken by Fast 6).[85] By the end of its opening day, it had accrued a total of $34.4 million (including midnight earnings), setting an April opening-day record, replacing Fast & Furious ($30.1 million),[86] and marking the third largest Friday outside of the summer and holiday period, behind The Hunger Games and Alice in Wonderland.[87][88] In total, Fast Five earned $86.2 million during its opening weekend, an average of $23,655 per theater,[2] with IMAX showings contributing over $8 million.[89] It thus set an opening-weekend record for the Fast and Furious series, for Universal,[90] (both records overtaken by Fast 6)[91] and for films released in April[90] (the record was surpassed in 2014 by Captain America: The Winter Soldier[92]). It also achieved the third-largest spring opening, behind The Hunger Games and Alice in Wonderland.[93][94] The film also set an opening-weekend record among films starring Diesel, Walker, Brewster, Johnson, Moritz and Lin,[90] records overtaken in all cases by Fast 6.[91]

The film opened dropped 62% on its second weekend, earning $32.4 million,[95] and ranking second behind Thor.[96] This result was partially attributed to the reduction in IMAX and large-format screens showing the film (reduced from 244[89] to 20[97]), since IMAX only contributed $510,000 to the film's second-weekend gross.[74] On June 4, 2011, 37 days after release in the US, the film became the first of 2011 to accrue more than $200 million.[98] The film received a one-week re-release in IMAX theaters on September 30, 2011.[99]

Critical reception[edit]

Dwayne Johnson received praise from several critics for his performance.

Fast Five received positive reviews from critics. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 77%, based on 198 reviews, with an average rating of 6.4/10. The site's critical consensus reads, 'Sleek, loud, and over the top, Fast Five proudly embraces its brainless action thrills and injects new life into the franchise.'[103] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 66 out of 100, based on 39 critics, indicating 'generally favorable reviews'.[104]

Roger Ebert gave the film 3 out of 4 stars, praising it as 'a skillfully assembled 130 minutes at the movies, with actors capable of doing absurd things with straight faces, and action sequences that toy idly with the laws of physics',[5] while Richard Corliss of Time considered it 'maybe the first great film of the post-human era'.[105]The New York Times said it deftly combined action and humor, stating 'The only time you won't be watching the screen is when your eyes have squeezed shut because you're laughing so hard.'[106]The Telegraph appreciated the presence of Johnson and Diesel together, calling it a 'cosmic event', and added that director Lin had revitalized the series, saying 'the start and finish here, defying every imaginable law of physics, are series highs.'[107]Empire also heaped praise on Johnson, saying 'How to re-ignite an ageing franchise? Drop [Johnson] on it. The best thing, by far, in Fast Five .. Dwayne Johnson hulks through the movie leaving testosterone trails in his wake.' However, Empire took the view that the film itself was 'not, by any normal criteria, a good film', arguing that it was too long, although conceding that the action scenes, in particular the final car chase, made the film 'the most entertaining in the series.'[7] Anna Smith of Time Out London also commented that the film was too long and criticized the simplistic characters and dialog, but she called the film 'slick' and stated that these criticisms could be overlooked because 'it doesn't take itself too seriously.'[108]Variety focused on the roles of Johnson and Diesel, lamenting the current lack of 1980s-style 'brawny' leading men and of the 'manly men' typical of the 1950s and 1960s, and calling their pairing 'a welcome injection of tough-guy vigor'. Variety commented that, based on Fast Five, a 'sixth entry could be something worth waiting for'.[109]The New Yorker called the action scenes 'spectacular', praising director Lin by saying his 'direction and the sharp editing never confuse or lose momentum', but also found the film too long and criticized the dialog, labeling it 'subpar Ocean's Eleven-style banter'.[110] On the characters, The New Yorker considered Walker and Diesel 'serviceable', but singled out Johnson for praise for bringing a 'hip, comic knowingness to his role .. his enjoyment is infectious and keeps the movie speeding along.'[110]

Total Film welcomed the return of Ludacris and Tyrese Gibson to '[inject] the film with much-needed laughs' and felt that Johnson fit into the established cast with ease, though it believed the film itself was 'no mould-breaker.'[111]Peter Travers of Rolling Stone, who disliked the previous movies, gave the film 2.5 stars out of 4, praising the transformation of the series into a heist film ('Damn it, it works'), commenting favorably on scenes between Johnson and Diesel, and judging that 'Fast Five will push all your action buttons, and some you haven't thought of.'[112] The Los Angeles Times felt that scenes shared by Diesel and Johnson were the 'best moments' and appreciated the humor, but considered the pacing a 'strange mix', switching between exposition, comedy scenes and then sudden action.[6] The reviewer echoed other critics' sentiments concerning the running time of the film, but concluded that 'the sheer audacity of 'Fast Five' is kind of breathtaking in a metal-twisting, death-defying, mission-implausible, B-movie-on-steroids kind of way', labeling it the 'best' of the series.[6]

Both Empire and Variety noted that the final chase scene of Fast Five contained allusions to Bad Boys II (2003): Variety stated that the scene 'seems inspired in part by a similarly spectacular scene in Bad Boys II';[109]Empire said that it 'nearly out-Bad-Boys-2s Bad Boys 2'.[7]

Not all reviews were positive, however. Film4 criticized both the film's long running time and its treatment of female characters, remarking '[Females] cameo strikingly in buttock form. Others actually have first names'. But Film4 praised Johnson's role as DSS agent Luke Hobbs, saying he 'provides a more credible anti-antagonist to our anti-heroes than the straight up villains can manage'.[8] The Boston Herald gave a more mixed reaction: it derided the lack of realism as removing any sense of threat to the protagonists, but conceded that 'these films may be robustly anti-intellectual and deplorably commercialized, but they are the envy of the rest of the world.'[113] Despite giving the film a positive review and praising the action, The Hollywood Reporter was critical of its stars, saying 'it's clear the budget wasn't used on acting lessons for the cast.'[114] The New York Post's Kyle Smith gave the film a negative review, criticizing the shortage of car-related action before the finale and calling it less a 'vroomer' and more a 'knucklehead Ocean's Eleven'.[115] Smith went on to call the film's villain Reyes (Almeida) 'unforgivably dull' and considered the long running time a result of taking 'that long to read every item in the cliché dictionary.'[115]Time Out New York stated that 'The Fast and the Furious movies haven't exactly gotten better as they've gone along' but gave the director a backhanded compliment, saying 'Justin Lin, taking his third turn behind the franchise's wheel, is at least a competent hack.'[116] Ebert was more complimentary, saying 'Justin Lin is emerging as a first-rate director in this second-rate genre'[5] and Rolling Stone managed 'Justin Lin, who misdirected the last two sequels, finds his pace this time, staging dynamite action.'

Brazilian critics[edit]

Fast Five cast in Rio de Janeiro

Brazilian reviewers criticized the use of Rio de Janeiro in the film, claiming it was stereotyped as 'dominated by heavily armed drug traffickers, corrupt police, and sexy women'.[9]O Globo accused the producers of using 'aerial shots and quick editing' to 'deceive the viewer' into believing that the criminal acts take place in Rio. Globo also reacted negatively to the use of 'foreigners' to represent Brazilians, 'speaking Portuguese with laughable accents'.[9]Veja agreed with O Globo, saying, 'The city of Rio and the Rio Film Commission supported the production. But the image that will spread across the world is exactly what the city doesn't want.'[117]

Accolades and recognition[edit]

Tyler's score for Fast Five earned him an award at the 2011 BMI Film Music Awards.[118] The marketing components of Fast Five were nominated for three Golden Trailer Awards, winning one for Best Summer Blockbuster 2011 TV Spot.[119] For the 2011 Teen Choice Awards, Fast Five received five nominations, including Choice Action Movie and Choice Action Movie Actress.[120] Three of the five available nomination slots for Choice Action Movie Actor were taken by actors from Fast Five: Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson and Paul Walker.[120] The film ultimately received one Teen Choice Award, for Choice Action Movie.[121] The film received two nominations for the 2011 People's Choice Awards for Favorite Action Movie, and Favorite Action Movie Star for Diesel.[122] Diesel was nominated for an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actor in a Motion Picture.[123] The film's sound and music editing was nominated for a Golden Reel Award for Sound Effects and Foley in a Feature Film by the Motion Picture Sound Editors society.[124] The film also received two Saturn Award nominations from the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films for Best Action/Adventure Film and Best Editing for Kelly Matsumoto, Fred Raskin, and Christian Watner.[125]

In December, 2011, Richard Corliss ranked the film number 10 on his list of the Top 10 Best Movies of 2011, saying, 'A carnival of roguish heroes and pretty girls, car chases and cliffhangers, Fast Five is as much a tribute as The Artist or Hugo to the cinema's primal thrills.'[126]Empire placed the film number 20 on its list of the Top 20 Films of 2011,[127] while IGN named it the 'Best Action Movie' of 2011.[128]Fast Five was listed as the number 1 most illegally downloaded film of 2011 on BitTorrent with approximately 9.3 million downloads.[129][130]

Home media[edit]

On August 2, 2011, USA Network purchased the rights to the United States network premiere of Fast Five.[134] The film was released on DVD and Blu-ray in the United Kingdom on September 5, 2011,[135] and in the United States on October 4, 2011,[136] in 2.35:1 aspect ratio with DTS HD Master Audio 5.1 sound. A triple pack was also released containing a Blu-ray, DVD, and digital copy of the film in either Blu-ray or DVD packaging.[137][138] The Blu-ray versions contains several exclusive additional features, including behind-the-scenes footage, cast and crew interviews, a 'virtual car garage' that provides further details on the vehicles used in the production, and music tracks from the film. Both the DVD and the Blu-ray contain a theatrical and extended cut of the film,[136] director commentary, deleted scenes, a gag reel and features on the three central characters.[138] Commenting on the extended cut, Lin said 'this is the version that I prefer.'[136] During first week sales in the United States the DVD was the number 1 selling DVD, the number 1 rental DVD,[139] and the number 2 selling Blu-ray disc behind the Blu-ray re-release of The Lion King.[140] 57% of the total first week disc sales of Fast Five were the Blu-ray disc version.[140]

To promote the release of the DVD and Blu-ray, Universal Studios Home Entertainment sponsored the first race of the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, at the Chicagoland Speedway. The event, renamed as the 'Fast Five 225', took place on September 16, 2011, with Gibson and Brewster as Grand Marshals; Gibson sang the American national anthem for the event and Brewster acted as honorary starter. The event served as the kickoff for the first weekend of the Chase for the Sprint Cup and was won by Austin Dillon.[141] The deal marked the first time that a film promotion had been allowed to take over a NASCAR race as a title sponsor.[142] Continuing the partnership with Car Town, the game was used as the exclusive means of pre-ordering the Blu-ray/DVD combo release at Walmart, via players clicking on a Walmart-themed truck, which in turn provided the player with Fast Five branded in-game rewards.[56]


Fast Five will be released on 4K UHD Blu-Ray on June 11 2019.[143]

Sequel[edit]

A sixth film in The Fast and The Furious series was planned in February 2010 as development on Fast Five began, and in April 2011, it was confirmed that Morgan had begun work on a script for the potential sixth film.[27][30] Diesel and Moritz returned as producers for the film and Lin would return to direct. Fast & Furious 6 was released on May 24, 2013.[144]
