The Fast and Furious franchise is a recipe for insane fun, but can you recap every movie so far? No? Don’t worry; James Corden can, and just in time for F9!
Confession: I LOVE the Fast and Furious franchise. Love it. And the crazier the plot, the more I’m into it! But, despite my love, I would be a total liar if I said I could keep any of the movies straight. I remember key scenes like the DVD truck heist from the first film or Paul Walker’s send-off at the end of one of the middle movies (did you expect me to remember which one it was?). And, of course, my favorite insane scene will always be cars parachuting from planes!
In the video below, James Corden manages to do the unthinkable: he recaps every Fast and Furious film, including Tokyo Drift (which I think gets a way worse rep than it deserves. I mean, it’s our first intro to Han… if you go by order of release, otherwise, that’s a messy topic that deserves its own post!). It’s easy to make fun of the franchise, but when you see all the heavy hitters lined up (including Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot, and now Charlize Theron!), as well as the dedicated original cast that returns time and time again, you can’t deny the love for adrenaline-filled action movies. (Also, assuming you can ignore all the stupidity that comes out of Vin Diesel’s mouth, you can watch him in the only character he’s ever played well — why did he skip 2 Fast 2 Furious again?!)
Watch Corden deliver his perfect Fast and Furious recap below… and remember, it’s all about “family!”
