When Furious 7 hit theaters this past April, there was very little doubt that it was going to demolish the box office both at home and abroad. As expected the seventh installment of the already established global juggernaut not only surpassed industry expectations but also enjoyed record-breaking success that once again set the bar higher for the remaining films in the thriving saga.
When The Fast and the Furious hit theaters back in 2001, I like most people didn’t expect much from it. A movie about fast cars, hot guys and the girls who love them didn’t seem like the kind of offering that would stand the test of time. More like a hectic adrenaline rush that subsides as soon as the credits start rolling.
