source The Towering Inferno and Die Hard rolled into one The link above describes that this movie is an original, but it has the elements of THE TOWERING INFERNO and the DIE HARD series rolled into one. Wow.  What an action packed adventure.  It reminded me why I have selective  acrophobia, but it was amazing to watch Dwayne Johnson be adrenalin driven because of his love for his family.   Yes, even the impossible and incredible things could be achieved because of love.  Good thing it was only the ninety-sixth(96th) floor he was trying to reach.  Sigh. Now I would never get a penthouse if the building is more than ten stories high.  :-p 🍿🍿🍿 This is definitely a popcorn movie.  Yes, The Rock wasn't really doing all the climbing, but he made it sooooo believable. Well, I can only speak for myself, I know, but it felt so real. I know, I know.  Not everyone agrees with me, but try watching it from the secon...

#notareview Vin Diesel, Charlize Theron, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris Bridges, Jason Statham and Dwayne Johnson Major spoiler alert My favorite part Baby Carlos with my brother RJ's favorite actor Carlos as Baby ____ Marcus Toretto (spoiler alert) The real star of the movie Usually babies in movies have their twins with them, but Carlos just played and did not need to have an alterate, except maybe for a mechanical body double or something, but his co-actors said he was a delight to be with.  Elsa Pataky, Chris Hemworth's wife in real life, and Baby Marcus' mother in the movie said he actually called Vin Diesel "Da-da!".  He'a a miracle, according to the F8 team(full cast and crew) This seventh franchise is still about family and the importance of it, whether one is related by blood or by heart. Our families either make us or break us...so what will happen to Dom's family?  Will the strong bond be broken? Will Dom go t...

The "familia" in Abu Dhabi  Paul Walker(Brian), Michelle Rodriguez(Letty), Vin Diesel(Dom), Tyrese Gibson(Roman), Nathalie Emmanuel(Ramsey) and Ludacris/Chris Bridges(Tej) Bound by love, friendship, loyalty and complementing abilities, this familia  again proves that people become one family even if they are not related by blood, with the exception Mia and Dom, of course. Together, they were able to kick some butt and save the world, so to speak. It's true, not everything they do is laudable, but... I love the send off  best.  I even shed a tear or two.  Note:  Although I have my own 4G pocket wifi, I'm glad that I was able to use the hyper speed(I'm exaggerating, but their connection is really fast) of Motorino Neapoletan Pizza of Brooklyn .  I wrote this piece while enjoying their roasted corn, garlic and cheese pizza and tiramisu.   Anyways, before publishing this, I had to reread and update it several times.
