Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham return to their unforgettable roles as Hobbs and Shaw in this action-packed feature from the blockbuster Fast & Furious franchise! For years, hulking lawman Luke Hobbs (Johnson) and lawless outcast Deckard Shaw (Statham) have traded smack talk and body blows. But when cyber-genetically enhanced anarchist Brixton (Idris Elba) gains control of an insidious bio-threat that could alter humanity forever, Hobbs and Shaw must partner up to bring down the only guy who might be badder than themselves!

Solid buddy action film for unplugging for 2 hours
Ok, so this movie is kinda dumb, but the action is fantastic and the interplay between Statham and Johnson works well. Like any Fast & Furious film, turn it on, turn your brain off, and enjoy the fights, 'splosions, and groan-worthy quips. A good time with no agenda other than to entertain, which is not without value when you need to unplug for a while.

Even though this isn't really
a part of the main F&TF saga, it's really a fun movie! RP

4k Hobbs & Shaw
The movie was fine but the 4k case outer film is wrinkled from excess heat used to shrink the film used for wrapping the 4k. The inside of the 4k case is coated with a film of some kind, probably from the manufacturing process of the case. I have noticed that some manufacturers are using a different kind of film that does not have to be shrunk, therefore doesn't have the problem mentioned above. It's about time the manufacturer hears from the customer that purchases their products.

Very good
This is an ancillary story that may or may not be tied in with the larger Fast & Furious franchise. The basic story is that Hobbs and Shaw are recruited by the CIA to team up to recover a virus that an organization with a mysterious "Director" who has some kind of past with Shaw is trying to unleash. It also brings Shaw's sister (played by Vanessa Kirby) into the mix, and she does a great job playing off the chemistry between Statham and Johnson. The main point of the movie is the three of them having to team up, all while Hobbs and Shaw try to one-up each other (as seen in the trailer) and stop Idris Elba's character who is basically an enforcer for "The Director".The tone and feel of the movie is a bit like the Fast & Furious movies, with over-the-top stunts, fights, and chase sequences. The acting is a bit better than what has been in the other movies, but it is never going to win an Oscar. The cinematography is wonderful, especially at the end when they are on Samoa. And, there are a couple of hilarious cameos by Ryan Reynolds and Kevin Hart.For those who get the 4k blu-ray, the movie looks and sounds great in the UHD format. There are well over an hour's worth of bonus material including an alternate opening and deleted scenes. And, the bonus material is included on the UHD disc, not just on the regular blu ray that is also included in the set.Overall, this is a movie that you know what you will get. It is action-heavy, with a blend of humor and a bit of drama. It, like the other F&F movies, is a bit tongue-in-cheek and does not take itself too seriously, aside from the family vibe that the other movies have. If you like the other movies, while I cannot guarantee you will like this one given that none of the other characters show up or are even hinted at in this one, chances are good you will find this one enjoyable even if you do not love it. It is definitely worth a couple hours if you are in the mood for an action movie.
