Ludicrous Action Almost Breaks Even

The continuous gain of ridiculous stunts is what makes this series better with each new entry. I can see why many people have total enjoyment for them, as I did enjoy this and Part 5. I was willing to give 'Fast 6' even more of a pardon for it's overall lame writing and bloated script full of soap-opera moments and sub-par acting. But inconveniences occurred. Most notably was the fact that almost all of the best moments, including the 'big finale', were shown in the trailer (which I had previously seen at least ten times). And the dialogue scenes being the weakest part of the franchise took up too much of the running time, almost slowing the movie to a halt a couple of times. Despite these shortcomings, I still enjoyed the riveting and creatively ludicrous action. I came very close to giving this a 3 star rating. Maybe 'Fast 7' will break that full recommendation barrier.
