The Fast and the Fierce

The poster is very misleading. Intending to make it look like something akin to The Fast and The Furious. The plane, the passengers, the crew, the captain, all nonsense. The plane flying between buildings you wouldn't even find in a computer game! And the acting is mostly bad, the plot doesn't make sense, and the last minute is also dumb, dumb. Give it a miss, I really mean it!

"The Fast and the Fierce" is definitely one of the worst titles The Asylum has put out so far. Especially since the title cashes in on "The Fast and the Furious", but it has absolutely nothing to do with that movie or genre.

This movie was actually entertaining enough for what it turned out to be, go figure.

There was some good enough acting throughout the movie, which was also a surprise for a movie such as this. It was especially nice to see Dominique Swain in the movie.

The CGI in "The Fast and the Fierce" was questionable at times. But of course, that was to be expected by a movie from The Asylum.

I managed to sit through the movie in all of its mundane entirety, and I can honestly say that I will not be returning to it a second time around.

This movie is awful. I haven't left any reviews on IMDb yet, but this is worth posting. This is the longest and most pathetic waste of time to watch. Bad acting, the title insinuates that it is somehow related to the fast and furious series; it's not. Poor performance, poor plot. Trust me, save your time, money or any "investment" in watching this.

'The Fast and the Fierce' - seriously? The title is a total misnomer, there's nothing remotely related to the 'Fast & Furious' franchise in this logic defying bomb on a plane ride. Benji (Steffi) is a no-hoper husband to hottie Donna (Davila) whose aboard a flight that's been rigged to explode unless he can obtain a computer code for seductive terrorist (Swain, who isn't bad) after the confident criminal makes him an offer he simply can't refuse (although he doesn't really show any sense of urgency until it's almost too late).

Veteran actor Paul co-stars as the Homeland Security agent trying his best to engineer a safe landing for the hijacked plane, and his character has the best of the banal dialogue on offer, the other actors having to contend with word drivel which they patiently deliver in some absurd situations - the more heavy handed flight attendant basically has the same cliched conversation with multiple passengers at regular intervals, warning them that their behaviour will not be tolerated and that they risk humiliation if they don't return to their seats. Yawn.

You wouldn't bet the house on a slacker like Benji pulling through, although the gravity of his perilous situation starts to sink-in when he discovers he wasn't the hijacker's first choice (although that doesn't really reconcile with the rest of the plot as you'll discover).

Heroes and villains are cleverly disguised and there's a few unexpected twists, but in the end the many ruses & red herrings cease to make sense and this cheap 'Speed' / 'Executive Decision' imitation loses the plot altogether.

The story and direction is terrible. CGI is terrible. Any movie using CGI should have a minimum quality, otherwise CGI makes it look worse. Engineering is literally thrown down the gutter! The plane scrapes a helicopter (the helicopter explodes), grazes the earth by the wing and nothing happens!! This whole movie is a waste of everything.

I don't even know why I started watching this.
