There is a charming little movie theater in our town. It was closed for over a year due to the pandemic. Now it's open again. I am required to spend an evening in a comfortable, air-conditioned theater, with a crowd of people, watching the show, regardless of how terrible it may be. Although I had seen bits and pieces from Fast & Furious on TV before, they left a very minimal impression. What about cars? Explosions? That was it. Now I know better. This movie is the worst I've ever seen. And I love bad movies.It was ridiculous. It was a shame that I did not understand the whole thing. The damn thing had expected me to absorb all the information from previous franchise entries.Charlize Theron plays a part in the story. The evil mastermind she is, we are not told why, and she is shown as a beautiful woman locked in a transparent box. It was surrounded by mysterious glowing poles that were supposed to act like a defense system or laser warning system. The only person in the box, Ms Hannibal Lecter (a very well-dressed woman), was there. I wondered how she went to the toilet. In every scene, she wears a different outfit. These questions dominated my thoughts on the movie. She was so completely irrelevant to the plot that she was later shown to have been released from the box and is now the bad guy. It doesn't matter what.It's just a lot of cars going fast and people firing machine guns from them. One twist is that they have superpowerful electromagnets, which the good guys put in their cars. This allows them to yank guns from people's hands or lift entire streets. It doesn't matter how heavy the supermagnet car is, it does not experience any force. There are many violations of basic physics that are offensive and numerous.They can also drive a rocket car into a satellite.Amusing moment: Vin Diesel and John Cena wrote in character notes that they had figured out that they were brothers due to their family resemblance. This shook me out of my thoughts about Charlize Therons privacy issue. What was it based on? It all depends on their neck diameters.This movie is a pathetic example of stupidity. It's the tenth in the franchise. But they couldn't count it that high so they named it F9.It's okay. It promises to be a summer full of bad movies so it is convenient that a floor has already been laid. You can only expect it to get better from now on. If it doesn't, I might finally get rid of my movie-going addiction.
