More on #F9 - This might be the most self-aware of all the FAST movies. It knows what it is & it knows what its fans want it to be, & it embraces all of it - not just in spectacle, but in character conversations too.

As a devout Fast family zealot for 20 years now, #F9 was pure unleaded Joy. In a year of dread it was a nitro boost of glee. In a series that asks WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?! in every opening action sequence, it NEVER stops escalating while maintaining it's own very specific rules pic.twitter.com/uIXRJimYQk

#F9 is a wild ride. It’s now been hours since seeing it and I found myself giggling at the sheer audacity of a few of the big set pieces and some other stuff. It’ll absolutely make you forget your troubles for a few hours.

#F9 (#FastandFurious9):

An insane, action-packed ride that ratchets up the ‘family’ aspect to almost a melodramatic parody. But it’s undeniably fun with heart and great set-pieces if you’re a fan of the series.
It may not be the best entry but it’s the most ridiculous one yet. pic.twitter.com/bEoLmD5tI9
#F9 is outrageous & one of the biggest, baddest additions to the Fast family franchise. Anything is possible, there are surprises at every turn, the stunts are at their best, & Tyrese steals the whole god damn show. Everything is over-the-top & I loved every second of it. pic.twitter.com/NVzoCbnovy

The envelope is open, and I can now say that #F9 was AMAZING! Justin Lin's return is a high ranking entry, w/ satisfying answers to some important ?'s. The action continues to be pure bonkers adrenaline & the story actually gets some exciting depths. Absolute blockbuster bliss. pic.twitter.com/m5I3xyma7e

I saw #F9 , the 9th Fast & Furious film. While I believe many will enjoy this, I did not whatsoever. It’s overly long, convoluted, and so ridiculously over the top that it borders on being insulting rather than fun & entertaining. This franchise has officially run out of gas. pic.twitter.com/q6XLP9NYKG

My F9 reaction: The Fast movies 4-8 work well because they embrace the ridiculousness. But at some point it's way too much. The couple of moments to of laughs and charm are totally overwhelmed by the eye rolling nonsense. It's the worst FF movie to date.
