Review of Fast X (2023) by Frank Scheck for The Hollywood Reporter — 17 May 2023
Twice in the film, giant lumbering objects ricochet through crowded city streets wreaking absolute havoc in their wake. They’re perfect visual metaphors for the movies themselves, so stuffed with over-the-top mayhem and testosterone-packed macho aggressiveness that they’ve become utterly ridiculous.
What saves Fast X is that it’s so aware of its own absurdity that it becomes an entertaining parody of itself.
