Trailer Link

Release Date:

April 3, 2015

Synopsis:

From IMDb: “Deckard Shaw seeks revenge against Dominic Toretto and his crew for the death of his brother.”

Poster: C / C / C / C / C

Review: (#1) As teasers go, it’s not that impressive. For fans of the franchise, it’s probably significant. For everyone else (and possibly even some fans), it isn’t.

(#2) I know the theme of this final film is family, but this seems like a shameless design intended to capitalize on the death of one of the stars. It’s bland either way.

(#3-#5) There’s really not much to these new posters. They share similar design constraints, link back to previous films’ designs and just seem to be a wholly lackluster bunch.

Trailer: B / B+

Review: (#1) The key signature of the Fast & Furious franchise is the car-based action sequences. They open this trailer with quite an impressive one, which will no doubt secure the admiration and attendance of die-hard fans. I don’t know if it can reach out past the brand, but it’s a noble effort.

(#2) The energy isn’t as high as the first trailer, but a better view of the plot is evident. That gives the film some purpose and direction when it would otherwise just be another in a successful franchise.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
