The only films that dare to challenge the market while the Cannes Film Festival is raging they are blockbusters with proven autonomy (and yield) at the box office, without the need for adequate promotion thanks to the tam tam of enthusiasts, secure locomotives for takings, well equipped in terms of budget, cast, digital effects. It’s no exception Fast X which, as the title indicates, is chapter number ten Of Fast & Furiousthe most famous serial adventure of 2000s cinema, initially based on clandestine car racing and then became the wildest carnival / self-propelled thriller Hollywood remembers, real disfigurement of the laws of physics and statics.

There new entry of the 2023 edition the reigning Aquaman Jason Momoa. Who here becomes the bad guy on duty, his name is Dante and a guy from Hell and malabolgiason of a Brazilian drug kingpin, Hernan Reyes, eliminated by Dom Toretto.

This time the psychologies are not zero, not only the well-aimed boom booms of the blazing videogame count: come on, the films of the saga have also taken on a discreet aesthetic value as well as an evident luster in the composition of the images. With her pebbles in her shoes, Momoa better than Vin Dieselbut it’s not enough.
