10 Clips from ‘Fast Five’

— by LYNN TACKITT —

On April 29, the fifth installment of “The Fast and The Furious” franchise will race to the big screen.

Director Justin Lin and writer Chris Morgan are teaming up again for what looks to be a bigger than ever action-packed film. The movie stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Jordana Brewster, Matt Schulze, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris and Sung Kang.

If you’re curious about how action packed it is or if you just can’t wait for Until April 29, check out the 10 following clips to whet your appetite.

The first scene features Dom and Brian telling the crew members, who came from all over the world, about the job. When they complain about it not being business but being personal, does the sum of $100 million dollars change their tune?


When they get a vault to practice on, it seems like they come up with a snag. They are going to need the owner of the vault’s handprint. It seems like it’s nothing but the easy stuff.


In clip three, a team is in charge of acquiring a handprint. You’ve got to love the interesting way they acquire it. I guess with that kind of money at stake, no sacrifice is too small.


In clip four, it seems no matter what the stakes or how the timing needs to be, the guys still like to play a little. “Let’s do a quarter mile race. Winner gets 100 grand.” “100 Grand? Let’s make it a million!”


In clip five, as the boys drive down the streets with a vault in tow, you can see it’s not as easy as it seems. Wonder what was more fun, obtaining the safe or driving through the streets with it?


In clip six, the FBI has arrived and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson tells them: “Get your thunder wear on. And two things — get me a translator and stay out of my way.” Would you argue?


Clip seven shows the police closing in and crashing in on the hideout resulting in an intense foot chase across the rooftops and everyone scattering.


As everyone is splitting up and trying to escape the police, clip eight follows Brian and Mia running over the rooftops. Suddenly, they come to edge of a tall jump off point. When push comes to shove, in this scene all you can say is “Damn!!”

As the FBI agent catches up with Dom, they have a little meet and greet with a no holds barred one on one in clip nine.


Brian is trapped on the edge of a train in clip 10, and Dom comes to the rescue in an edge of your seat car scene, cutting it closer than even they like.

    I kinda can’t wait to see this. I watched most of the clips. And while Paul Walker is my favorite, it looks like they have a good storyline and it’s hard to resist Vin Diesel AND The Rock in a movie together.

    awesome job on the article, Lynn!
