Ranking the Fast and the Furious Movies

The fast the furious franchise had its good and bad movies, so I decided to rank them here, of course from worst to best.

7. The Fast and Furious: Toyko Drift (2006)

This movie had better action, and was more interesting then the next two entries on my list. So why is isn't it no. 4, then? Well, the first movie didn't quite connect with the second the way it should of, but this movie didn't connect to anything and made no sense in the franchise. So, we start off with paul walker joining Vin Diesel and his loser friends at the end of the first. Then suddenly, Vin Diesel and his friends are gone, and now its Tyrese Gibson and Walker. Sure, that didn't make two much sense, but at least had one recurring character and it had the same themes as the first movie. Now, in the third film, "The Fast and the Furious: Toyko Drift" we ditch all the characters in the previous films, move halfway across the country for what reason. If anthing, 2 Fast 2 Furious was a spinoff and The Fast and the Furious: Toyko Drift was a Japanese remake. At least they connected this movie with Fast and Furious 6, but even still this movie makes no sense where it was placed in the franchises. It could be a reboot, a prequel, or a remake, but this makes no sense as a sequel. Even if this movie had paul walker and vin diesel in japan, it wasn't a very good film and had much to improve upon. This movie is absolute trash, and when I rewatch the entire series, I may skip this one.

6. Fast and Furious (2009)

So the sequel to a really crappy movie is even. This movie made sense, and brought the franchise back together after ditching most of the main characters for two films, but they didn't get anything else right. When I watched this movie, I felt bored and unimpressed, because the action really wasn't very good.

5. 2 Fast and Furious (2003)

The addition of Roman Pearce was good, but this movie had too many other crappy cast member, awful music, and the action wasn't good enough to make up for it.

4. Fast Five (2011)

I know many people love fast five, and regard it as the best fast film, but I don't. I think its overrated. Sure, it was good, fresh new start for the franchise and actually involved good action, but the only very pleasing scene was the heist at the end. It was a good movie, but nowhere close to great.
Oh, and Dwayne Johnson was the greatest addition to the franchise.

3. The Fast and the Furious (2001)

Now, we get to an underrated film. Paul Walker was cool. I liked the car chases. It was good start. There were a few flaws, and it clearly lacked in good action, but it was a good movie, and it was almost great.

2. Fast and Furious 6 (2013)

Now, this is a film that I would call great. It had such excellent action, easily bettering the action of any other film in this franchise. The action scenes were fantastic, and they used the best cast for this film. Luke Evans was a good villain, and the car chases were the best. Jason Statham had a great cameo, and I'm sure he'll be great as villain.

1. Furious 7 (2015)

 

Fast and Furious 6 was good, but Furious 7 is 10 times better. By far the best Furious yet, Furious 7 may jut be the best action movie of all time. It introduces great new characters- like Kurt Russell's Mr. Nobody, and has amazing action sequences that no other film can beat. The mountain chase scene is perhaps the greatest action sequence in history of film. But it's not just another fun action movie. It gives a very touching and well-handled sendoff to Paul Walker after his tragic death.
