Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw - Movie Reviews (2024)

While not all the jokes in Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw land, the ones that do will keep you guffawing for a good five minutes.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | May 15, 2024

The comedy wasn't as good as I expected, the action isn't that captivating, and Brixton is such a horribly written, unexplored character, that I kept feeling frustrated every time an action sequence ended.

It’s not the most ridiculous film in the franchise from an action standpoint, but nearly the entire runtime is taken up by two grown men...

Full Review | May 2, 2023

Hobbs & Shaw is exactly as advertised. It’s a fun action flick, with gratuitous violence, crazy stunts, and lots of entertaining bickering between Jason Statham and Dwayne Johnson.

Even without Dominic and the rest of the Family, Hobbs and Shaw provide an outlet for spin-offs that works while still paying homage to the messages that got us to this point.

Full Review | Original Score: 10/10 | Jan 17, 2023

Hobbs & Shaw is an overall fun action movie. It delivers on most of the high points, with some amusing banter and interplay between The Rock and Statham, and some crazy, over-the-top action sequences.

Full Review | Original Score: 7.5/10 | Aug 21, 2022

...funny, violent, predictable and utterly preposterous.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 20, 2022

It's a fun ride.

Hobbs and Shaw proves the series remains viable without the rest of the Family, taking an inspired detour into steroid-injected buddy cop territory while dishing up some slyly effective character development.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 4, 2021

Hobbs & Shaw focuses on humor and one great central relationship, and winds up being one of the best films in the series because of it.

If you're up for spending 10 bucks to see good movie stars make jokes and explosions, that's what you'll get, and some of it even kind of works.

Manages to both rev its engine and spin its wheels, providing some hare-brained action and charming actors but not much else.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 31, 2021

The overdramatic heroism of these cartoonish he-men becomes exhausting as they struggle to ooze cool.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/10 | Dec 7, 2020

The spinoff has all the makings of a summer hit. Along with the larger than life talents of the bald-headed warriors in its lead and now the cunning ability of its chief bad guy in Elba.

David Leitch lets his action movie skills do the talking to deliver a summer blockbuster with old-fashioned thrills and spills.

Full Review | Original Score: 4 / 5 | Jul 28, 2020

You'll walk out smiling. Can you call it a great movie? Not with a straight face. But damned if it isn't one of the more enjoyable "Fast & Furious" flicks in years.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 24, 2020

I'm all for the suspension of disbelief, but goodness gracious, the line has to be drawn somewhere, doesn't it?

Full Review | Original Score: C- | Jul 8, 2020

The film has all the loveable qualities of the original franchise while introducing an inspired comical element from its two main stars.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 6, 2020

It's a fun and exciting action film, infused with plenty of heart, and driven by some great chemistry between its leads.

Full Review | Jun 27, 2020

Whether Hobbs & Shaw is the dumbest movie ever made is a topic for debate, but it's in the running. Sometimes that's dumb in a fun, goofy way, but more often, it's tedious, exhausting, and a test of patience.
