Kurt Russel, Scott Eastwood, Nathalie Emmanuel and the others have put in energetic performances. Another Oscar winner and crowd favorite Hellen Mirren puts in a cameo and steals the show as she forces son Statham into submission shedding crocodile tears. Elsa Pataky’s surprise role has probably been written into this movie to write her off the franchise. Michelle Rodriguez is all steel and power while Tyrese Gibson regularly tickles the funny bones with the aid of Chris Bridges. Statham first impresses with his amazing guile in the action sequences and later brings the house down with his interactions with a toddler during the climax fight. Dwayne Johnson in his intro scene lights up the fun as he coaches his daughter and her friends football team and later keeps it that way with his banters with Jason Statham. Oscar winner Charlize Theron plays the steely eyed terrorist mastermind Cypher with assured élan and easily towers over every other actor on frame. He also has a few emotional scenes when Cypher reveals what she is holding hostage and he is even effective as tears roll down his cheeks. Vin Diesel is his usual self and in the very first scene wins the audience over when he races a rundown car against a loan shark and gains his respect.
