Faster (2010)

The action movie called ''Faster'' stars Dwayne ''The Rock'' Johnson who in my opinion played it off very well.

A brief summary about this movie is that it's about a man (Johnson) who just got out of prison and seeks out revenge on behalf of his brother's death. Through out the movie without spoiling it, you figure out his past; couple years back he use to rob banks with his two buddies and his older brother. The distinctive thing about this man is he never robbed the banks... he was the DRIVER. So basically his buddies would go and rob the bank while the driver (Johnson) waited in the car for them to come out so he could take off real quick and using his driving skills he got away every time. Here's a cool scene from the movie showing the getaway!



The action in this movie is fantastic! I thought it was very well choreographed and every second of this movie leaves your heart racing on what will happen next.

 After there last heist (in this clip) they went to there safe house and ended up being set up and got all their money stolen by another crew. After the fact the intruders killed the driver's brother and his friends, and they did shoot Johnson but he survived the gun shot.... So after doing 10 years in the penitentiary for the heist, he sets out in a 1970 Chevelle driving all across the city to find each men who participated in the murders of his brother and friends. Not  only does the driver (Johnson) have the cops (Billy Bob Thorton) on his tail for the killings but also an assassin who was assigned to kill him. So a lot goes on through out this film and as he tries to bring justice upon his brother's death, there's an assassin trying to finish a mission by killing him.





This guy is definitely not your average typical friendly neighborhood man because he is a stone cold killer and has no mercy on no one. Here's another clip showing basically the outline of what you'll be watching if you ever get to it. I strongly recommend this movie if you love action. The acting is very well done, action is fantastic and there's not one boring part of the movie. Overall it's a solid movie and I personally would give it a 7.5/10
