Fast & Furious Live

What am I Looking at? 
The Fast & The Furious Live @ The Dome. The most loudest, dumbest, ridiculous, crashy, bang-bang stage show you'll ever see.

Why? 
We've never watched the movies and in general have zero interest in this franchise. However, Fast & Furious in a live context makes perfect sense. The films are pretty much mindless pageantry tied together by increasingly ridiculous set-pieces. This article did a good job of selling it too.

So how was it?  
The show was a feast of amazing. There was nonstop balletic action, explosions galore, tanks, a train, a plane, a friggin submarine...

Wow. How did this all tie together? Was there a plot? 
No. Maybe? If there was, we weren't really paying attention. Clips from the movies introduced each chapter, from there the show nicely segued into the live set pieces. The AV and stage direction was really impressive throughout and did a great job of amping up the excitement.

Final verdict? 
10/10 for brainless, adrenaline fuelled fun.

Great. Thanks. Bye.
