I am not working with you: we have an Ex-MI6 British Special Forces Deckard Shaw/Fanz Gruber/Hugh Janus [Younger Dekard Shaw: Joshua Coombes/Adult: Jason Statham] and  Ex-DSS Agent Luke Hobbs/Mike Oxmaul also goes by Michael [Dwayne Johnson] eventually working together to find and aid Shaw's sister MI6 Agent Hattie Shaw/Sarah Atkins [Younger Hattie Shaw: Meesha Garbett/Adult: Vanessa Kirby] as she is on the run from them as to begin with a false narrative was put out by the person hunting her Brixton Lore [Idris Elba] an Ex-MI6 turned cyber-genetically enhanced terrorist for Eteon Operative; as they brought him back to life after Deckard shot him dead, this terrorism organisation now want this substance known as Snowflake which they had engineered but was stolen from and they want it back, but it is currently Hattie Shaw and it is a race against time to get it out of her, before things get worse.

One final thing keep an eye out for Mateo Hobbs; Luke's brother [Joe "Roman Reigns" Anoa'i] Johnson's real life cousin and yes for those people that don't know he went into the family business of wrestling working for the WWE and doing a bit of film work and TV on the side.

The pacing of this 137 minutes film is good, I am not being lazy here, but it has to be said that everything about this film follows a reliable formula to be good or/and entertaining.

I mean in one way or another we have wrestling elements such as Johnson and Reigns appearing or/and sharing a moment on screen together, Hobbs and Dekard Shaw doing these two separate promos [this is a wrestling terminology; that basically means that talking side of wrestling,] including Johnson adapting some of his old promo stuff and on top of that; he does the People's Eyebrow and Reigns performs his version of the Spear [which you will have to watch out for because he does it quickly; roughly around the time on-screen with Johnson.]

Away from this; we have high octane action with guns, chasing and basically loudness, for a little bit more in depth now for an example; we have The Usos family in this film and not the also WWE tag team of the same name Jey & and Jimmy Usos; which yes are related to Johnson and Reigns [the reason why I have chosen to use some of the wrestlers ring/stage names I have said in this content, is simply because I wanted to distinguish between who I was making reference to.] But we have Deckard Shaw driving this pickup truck with lifting hook which Hobbs is on the back of winding up this hook to throw using his arm/hand to connect onto this chopper which has a captured Hattie Shaw on board by Lore with other characters on board that are under the leadership of Lore. So on attaching this hook it quickly becomes apparent that they are going to need more and more of a counterbalance luckily Hobbs' family members involving Mateo Hobbs to quickly come along and by their vehicle hooks attach themselves to the vehicle in front of them to create this chain of vehicles, this also looks like good art as well, speaking of good art we also have before this Luke Hobbs involving Mateo Hobbs perform this Samoa ritual including Luke speaking Samoan and Luke and Mateo in appropriate Samoan costumes; just to cover my back there may be others but this sequence is relatively small. But his family performs this ritual before taking on these unwanted guests in the form of the forces of Eteon Operative led by Lore.

Character developments and performances: are all good and the comedy as I have already shown with Luke Hobbs and Dekard Shaw's one alias each including the promos and they do this one-upsmanship action sequence where there are two basically corridors which are see-through and in some capacity full of henchmen, they have these doors scanners [which means you can see what's on the other side] which firstly brings up this first pick no backiez, where Luke Hobbs gets this one big guy which takes him a second to take care of and drag him to the ID eye identification lock, but simultaneously Deckard Shaw taking care of these many henchmen in different ways seeking the respect of Luke Hobbs throughout this sequence stopping at intervals seeking Luke Hobbs respect, but it isn't/wasn't forthcoming and on top of that Deckard has trouble finding the henchmen which has the correct eye for eye looked so he has to do repeatedly tried different henchmen which look has unlocked his and waiting to go through, but is waiting and waiting for Deckard for two examples Luke doing some push-ups waiting or Deckard indicating find go on whilst he is sorting this out and one final thing I should point out here Luke Hobbs does make references to a Black Superman and off the top of my head and yes I'm aware that this is possibly speculation the closest equivalent to what he is referencing to would-be Black Adam which if this is the case it is and was an excellent foreshadowing of the Black Adam film project in 2022 [and potentially other projects from DC Studios in the future connecting Black Adam;] if you don't know this again; this also stars Dwayne Johnson in his passion project as Teth Adam/Black Adam and if you're interested here is the Link https://averagemansreviews2017.blogspot.com/2022/10/black-adam-2022-by-averagemansreviews.html
