With a global recipe of around $ 7 billion, Fast & Furious is one of the most lucrative franchises in current cinema since the release of the first opus in 2001 (this does not rejuvenate anyone). A saga that has been able to survive light casting changes, a tragic disappearance, the ego of its main star and which has nothing to do with its Breakian points.
Ten films later, with an eleventh (and last?) Which is long overdue, F&F Continue to delight streaming platforms which never hesitate to get their hands in the pocket to regularly rent the diffusion rights. And since first seven films, plus the spin-off Hobbs & Shawhave just arrived on Netflixwe cannot resist the urge to make a Small ranking, from the worst opus to our favorite.
Fast X (part 1)
Yes, we start this classification strongly by putting the last opus in the last place to date. If the saga has never shone with its subtlety and consistency, Fast X East the perfect example of the limit not to be exceeded in the escalation. Everything is too there. Too many deaths brought back to life, too much Momoa in a freewheel, too much deified wine, too many inconstances, too long … The scenario crosses the border of the credible so often, at all levels – John Cena radically changing the radically personality between two films, for example -, that what we tolerated previously can no longer be. Even Action scenes are not particularly folichon in view of certain episodes. We feel scammed on a commodity that no longer pretends to take us for service pigeons. And that, we don’t like.

2 Fast 2 Furious
Long the worst opus in the saga, 2 Fast 2 Furious proves three things. First of all, Paul Walker cannot hold the steering wheel solohe does not have the “build” for. Second, the initial idea of the saga could not develop on several films, we go quickly in circles. Third, Tyrese Gibson has been unbearable since his debut in the family. Everything is bad taste, visually filthy, quite soporific And it is hard to remember a striking moment, apart from the end credits.
Fast & Furious : Tokyo Drift
The first film that tried to go see if the grass was greener elsewhere. Almost a spin-off if he was not considered the third of the saga, Vinou made only one cameo and the place is left to the anti-chaismatic Lucas Black for a Japanese adventure. Other than that, we resume the same mechanics of the previous two, but in less well. We feel that the saga is already starting to press the brake with a low budget and a lack of ideas. If he is not in the last place of this ranking, it is only for his attempted export that we can judge courageous.
Fast & Furious 4
The return of Vin Diesel and Paul Walker in An episode that slowly starts, but surely its moult. Fast & Furious 4 Try to put the whole band back to the center of the plot, the first brick of what will happen later. Justin Lin behind the camera provides the service, but all this is still too timid To really mark the franchise. If Fast X was the opus of too much, this is undoubtedly the film at least in this F&F which timidly starts its new version. Not spectacular enough, nor silly enough to stand out.
Fast & Furious 9
Avant Fast Xwe had already had A taste of immense scriptwriting flaws that the franchise was being created. John Cena while bad, why not, but in Dom’s brother? With the death of Paul Walker to manage, it was the equivalent of getting his feet in the carpet. And then we start to get tired of seeing the little band play super-spans in ever more lunar delusions. As for Vin Diesel, his Inability to take the second degree franchise As his friends constantly leads to each attempt at humor of a saga who knows that his salvation can be there.
Fast & Furious : Hobbs and Shaw
The episode of Promises not held. On paper, a spin-off around the characters of Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham had a face, especially since each sequence of his two in the main saga marked the spirits by this overflow of testosterone bottled with very 90s punchlines. Except that The result is constantly weighed down by an all -public mind that does not suit him. Humor never goes higher than children’s jokes and the action deserves to let go of horses. We wanted nag, we had soft at all and A stupid and nasty blockbuster without soul. The second degree has at least the merit of taking place and then Vanessa Kirby and Idris Elba are two adds to the casting.
Fast And Furious
Return to origins, the remake not assumed to Point Break. A time when the killed cars were not yet cheesy and when Vin Diesel did not yet have the melon too much. A time when The characters were a complex minimumwhere the intrigue had a start, an environment and an end and We didn’t try anything, anyhow. A first episode that has nothing to do with what has become of the franchise and which reminds us of these moments when we could assume to appreciate Fast & Furious in society (well almost).
Fast & Furious 8
The film that signed the start of the end. Without Paul Walker, Vin Diesel inflates the pectorals to ridiculous and where we really start the rain of protagonists written by artificial generators. Except that. Except that if his main star lacks self-mowing, the rest of Fast & Furious 8 Cumulates the acts of armed formed with assumed sequences Where we rain cars, where Dwayne Johnson escapes from prison and where he pushes missiles with bare hands. We thought that the previous film was that of the escalation, This eighth part explodes the counter with a lot of fun.
Fast & Furious 6
Now that the fifth episode set foot on the ground, the sixth could launch the crazy walk forward. It is from this opus that The franchise begins to assume its very moron, very nags, very nagwith sequences that have nothing to do with coherence, but with a certain pleasure. We are in Pure spectacle who does not care about the laws of physics and to bring back characters supposed to be dead. A quality that will become a defect later, except that here, there is still a certain management of balance.
Fast & Furious 5
And Fast & Furious was the opus by which it all started, the fifth part is the one who brought him into another category. We leave the races aside and go to robbery in the war zone with a Dwayne Johnson destroying walls in buffalo mode. The franchise becomes action, humor and overbidding And the actors can go into physicity and homo-eroticism when Wine and Dwayne play the one who ends up above the other. It is mastered, still (a bit) coherent and we have it for our money.
Fast & Furious 7
Fast & Furious 7this is the episode of the most, before that of too much. The second degree is more assumedespecially with his intro sequence where Statham leaves a destroyed hospital. The scenes are more spectacularmore exaggerated, like the one where you swing a car between two buildings in Abu Dhabi in slow motion. The emotion is obviously more lively With the death of Paul Walker and the tribute sequence given to him at the end. We are at the limit of the overdose of everything, and yet, We remain glued to the bitumen of entertainment where nonsense becomes admired and admirable. When anything is almost turned into art.
