I have never seen a Fast & Furious movie.  Are any of them any good?

I enjoy car chases as much as everyone else, but is there anything more to any of these?

Thanks!

I've only seen the first one all the way through and it's pretty good.  Seen parts of later ones and they look silly but many people I know really like them.

Mudbound has had great reviews. Don't do Netflix, so will wait until it shows up in a real theater & see for myself.

Going to see Three Billboards today.

Right. I read the same reviews and I dare say it has it's fans.

Just not me.

Three Billboards sounds good.

The Foreigner -Martin Campbell (2017)

Jackie Chan does Liam Neeson, not.

Although the great man is billed as the main attraction, the film is actually a smart, well done political thriller 'with' or 'and ' JC.

I enjoyed it a lot. The action parts are convincing ala Jason Bourne and Pierce Brosnan is an excellent evil doer.

Exceeded expectations.

Dunkirk - Christopher Nolan (2017)

http://www.pieuvre.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Dunkirk.jpg

Dazzling, breathtaking film that grips like a vice from first frame to last.

With a bare minimum of dialogue , the film is propelled by truly amazing cinematography and editing with subtle use of idiosyncratic non linear cutting.

 For me this elevates Nolan to the ranks of David Lean and Alfred Hitchcock.
