And he’s not the only familiar face that shows up. He’s the one who helps Dom break Tego out of prison. (Although, if we want to be technical here, and why wouldn’t we, director Justin Lin says Sung Kang’s version of Han also appeared in the 2004 non- Fast & Furious film Better Luck Tomorrow, so there’s that.) He explains how they know each other, kind of, saying they did some work together in Mexico and that Dom calls him in for “the fun stuff” and that Dom’s exploits as a street racer were known far and wide before that. This is actually his first appearance, chronologically. The character who was introduced and killed in Tokyo Drift, brought back for three movies, killed again, disappeared for two movies, and is back a second time - alive, without time-shifting tricks - in the ninth movie. Remember the bullet point about reinforcements? Well… Universal And we could talk about this, too, but there’s no time for that either. Some real classic Fast & Furious stuff in here, just playing a medley of the hits for the fans. You can’t move forward without fuel… and no one wants to be left behind.”
Utters this objectively perfect line of dialogue: “You know at the end of the day, people are gonna get what they need.Meets with a politician who tells him that the problem is deeper than he realizes.Does that thing people do in crime movies where he and an associate enter a restaurant through the kitchen and glide through the staff in slow-motion.Has a large cookout where someone says grace first.But there’s no time to get too far into any of this, because things are happening very quickly now. Is it kind of perfect that Dominic Toretto is re-introduced into the franchise while cranking away on a car and explaining the inner workings of the engine to small children in his deep gravel-coated voice? Yes, of course. And so, the people turn to the one man who can help them… Universal Most of this is explained in a voiceover by Tego Calderon’s character, also named Tego, who opens the film in prison. There is a massive fuel shortage on the island. The plot of Los Bandoleros, in brief: Dominic Toretto has fled to the Dominican Republic after Brian lets him go at the end of the first movie. It introduces Han and loosely explains how he and Dominic Toretto know each other. It takes place at some unspecified time between the first and fourth movie. It’s really quite wonderful.Īnd here’s another fun twist: That whole shift, the chronological two-step and the move from small-time crime to high-level operations, is explained in a 20-minute short film that was written and directed by Vin Diesel in 2009, just before he rejoined the franchise. Ludacris is now the world’s greatest computer hacker.
FAST AND THE FURIOUS LOS BANDOLEROS TRAILER MOVIE
It’s a movie franchise that started out with street racers stealing DVD players and now features those same street racers as top-level off-book government operatives who stop a cyber-terrorist - Academy Award winner Charlize Theron! With braids! - from stealing a nuclear submarine. And also another character dies in the fourth movie and is not in the fifth but is back as a villain in the sixth but it turned out she had amnesia and… See, the third movie, Tokyo Drift, which features none of the cast of the first two movies except for a brief Vin Diesel cameo at the end, actually takes place between the sixth and seventh movie, and in the sixth movie, in a mid-credits scene, we learn that Han - a character who died in the third movie but was back for the fourth through sixth - was actually killed by Jason Statham as revenge for things that happened in the sixth movie, and then Statham is the bad guy in the seventh movie, but by the eighth he’s a good guy and then he gets a spin-off with The Rock. Because once you get through the first two films and you have the pleasure of saying phrases like “Ludacris officiating a jet ski race,” things start to unravel real fast. Here’s what I need you to do: Find a person who has not seen any of the Fast & Furious movies - anyone: your parents, your neighbor, a stranger at the grocery store - and try to explain the timeline of the franchise to them.
