Just Call It the Fast and Ridiculous Already

At one point in the movie, Roman (played by Tyrese Gibson) makes a pointed speech about no matter what seems to happen to the characters, they never die. You mean you think you're invincible says Tej (Ludacris) before busting out laughing and saying what a jackass he is... but this is where we are now. The series itself is invincible and it has the box office clout to prove it - and no matter how insane or ridiculous things get, I'm also along for this ride - I may not be family, but I will support it to the end.
F9 starts with some family history - as we see Toretto racing family back in the 80s, a young dom, his race-car driving father and his previously never-mentioned young brother, Jakob. While there have been references to this in the past - nothing like dropping a random family …
