Obviously , this post is gonna be all about the Fast and Furious franchise , which is one of the most successful franchises in Hollywood , for obvious reasons .
Fast and Furious 7 came out two days ago , and I managed to watch it yesterday . It was spectacular - like one of the best movies I've ever watched in a really long time.
I'm not gonna spoil anything for anyone , because it wouldn't be really nice to do so . I'm just gonna talk about the ending of the movie , which probably needs no introduction.
When all was said and done with, Dom, Letty, Roman, and Tej sat on a beach watching Brian and his wife, Mia, play with their son in the distance. Dom and Letty agreed that this is where Brian belongs. He is a family man, a great human being, and should stop living such a dangerous life. He will always be family. Dom gets up to walk away and Letty asks, "You're not going to say goodbye?"
"It's never goodbye," Dom responds. The goosebumps are on my arms as I picture the scene as I think about how difficult it must have been for Vin, Michelle, Tyrese, and Ludacris to film this scene, despite being such a beautiful farewell to their good friend. The scene felt more like Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez and Paul Walker than it did Dominic Torretto, Leticia Ortiz, and Brian O'Connor, and that's just the way it should have been.
Dom drives off through the mountains and comes to a stop at an intersection. Beside him, a car pulls up. To the heartfelt surprise of the audience, it's Brian. "Hey, you thought you could leave without saying goodbye?" Brian says with a wonderful smile. Dom and Brian share a brotherly moment, just enjoying each other's presence, before they drive off through the mountains, ultimately going in different directions.
A wonderful tribute played- a compilation of moments between Brian, Dom, and the rest of the crew from the entire Fast & Furious franchise as Wiz Khalifa's "See You Again," played. It beautifully showcased how young the cast was 15 years ago when the franchise started and how much they have grown together. Vin Diesel spoke a monologue, written by Chris Morgan.
"I used to say I live my life a quarter mile at a time and I think that's why we were brothers- because you did, too. No matter where you are, whether it's a quarter mile away or half way across the world. The most important thing in life, will always be the people in this room. Salute mi familia. You'll always be with me... And you'll always be my brother."
The song for the ending is as below :
It's truly an amazing journey throughout all these years in the Fast and Furious franchise and I'm very sure that Paul Walker is happy with what Vin Diesel has done even through the tough times .
RIP Paul Walker , you will be missed
