"Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw" – No Tokyo, All Drift (with spoilers)

Pop Culture Double Date

In a sign that we've reached peak universe-building in Hollywood, the most improbably successful action film franchise of them all has now got a spin-off. But it is any good? Does this movie work as an odd-couple comedy? We know that the Rock and Jason Statham have comedy chops, but does the script give them anything to work with? Does the undeniable charisma and presence of these two men make up for the absence of the main Fast and Furious crew? And will Deckard Shaw ever pay for the unforgivable murder of Han? All these questions, and more, in the latest pop culture double date.
