I was 15 minutes late but I was able to catch the significant scenes in the last Fast and Furious franchise Furious 7. This is the movie that made a lot of big boys cry. The movie while action-packed was laced with heavy-drama because of the fact that this was the last Fast and Furious movie with Paul Walker a.k.a. Brian O’Conner.
For all I was told, Paul was able to finish 80% of the movie.
If you haven’t watched the movie yet, stop reading up to here. I have a lot of questions about the movie because I think the first 80% of the movie has a lot of premonition about a real life death of someone from the main cast.
First premonition I caught was the part during Hans funeral.
Han’s , as played by Sung Kang, was killed in Tokyo by Deckard Shaw played by Jason Statham. At the funeral this scene happened:
Roman (Tyrese Gibson) said: “I can’t do any more funerals.” then turns to Brian and said “Just promise me Brian, no more funerals.”
Brian replies: “Just one more,” then the pause was just odd and long until Brian said “HIS” referring to the Deckard (Statham) then a car chase happened between Dominic Toretto played by Vin Diesel and Deckard.
That funeral was the creepiest scene for me. When Paul/ Brian said “Just one more!” WTF!
Second premonition the scene before the mountain chase when Brian was on the phone with his wife Mia Toretto as played by Jordana Brewster . Brian said” Something’s about to go down. If you don’t hear from me in the next 24 hours, I need you to take Jack and move on.” The he said I love you like he was saying it one last time.
That was like ouch!
The bus stunt at the mountain!
I really thought that was the scene when Brian’s character will be dead. The cliff-hanger scene made me scream so bad I really though he was gonna be dead. Then came Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) to the rescue.
Letty asked: “You good?”
Brian answered: “Thank you!”
From what I have heard this was the last scene and the last line Paul was able to shoot for the movie and then it took about a year before they finished the movie with Paul’s brother standing-in for him.
The Abu Dhab/ Dubai Scene was no longer Paul Walker but his brother.
The ending scene just pierced-through everyone’s heart. This is what made the big boys cry at the cinema. They did I heard them, there was sobbing and sniffles. It hurts.
From what I heard this is the last Fast and Furious movie. The ending was perfect. For Paul!
A tribute to Paul and a good ending to a great car movie franchise. It was not about being fast anymore, as Vin Diesel said in the movie.
Great fight scenes too, don’t blink!
They did not kill Brian/Paul in the movie but Fast and Furious 7 was able to make the audience let go of Brian’s character. Well, done.
