Premiere Movie: Fast & Furious

I was delivering some marketing materials after work and the person whom I was meeting with pointed me towards Cineleisure Damansara and I proceeded there. I was grumbling at this point, primarily because I was feeling lazy and this was after office hours. When I got there, I couldn't find him and I had to call him two to three times to finally get him.

Apparently his company was taking care of the premiere on that night and he surprised me by saying if I wanted to watch Fast & Furious. I heard about the movie but I didn't know it was being released on the next day. I was looking forward to the movie anyway because it marked the return of Vin Diesel to reprise his role. So, I was still thinking if he was serious or not (It was April 1st btw) when he just ushered me in and pushed me into one of his subordinates and they proceeded to find me a cinema.

Not bad for what started as a grunt delivery job. Anyway, we managed to get me some good seats, the back row sofa seats and I just enjoyed the movie. The downside was that apparently I missed 15 to 30 minutes of the start.

The movie itself was typical Fast & Furious affair. Non stop muscle cars, chics, awesome driving and action sequences. However, I felt the movie lacked something. It felt as if the movie had less budget than the previous ones. The CGI effects were less and there were no crazy camera into the hood, exiting through the exhaust sequences (except for one time). In addition to that, Paul Walker is still in it. I hate that guy, he acts the same for all his movies. Anyway, you can read about the reviews and info on the movie on this IMDB link >HERE<.

I'm wondering if my luck in getting free movie tickets will continue. We shall see ...
