It also sets up the family thing and the folie-à-deux bond between Brian and Dom - the sequels are all cashing from that bank but they're too fast-paced to add much to it.
It's fun and absurd (the robberies!), but serious enough to have soul. My top pick is the original, "The Fast and the Furious," aka BAD DECISION THEATER. Vinnie Bennett and Finn Cole take on the roles of young Dom and Jakob, respectively.īut since they're scattered throughout the movie, that might make it a bit tricky, so it's okay if you just watch them now.But 7 is just my No. Technically, if you're being rigid with your chronological order, you'd have to watch the flashbacks in F9 before every other movie as they tell the story of the death of Dom and Jakob's father back in 1989.
