Fast Five (Two-Disc Blu-ray/DVD Combo) by Universal Studios

Format: Blu-ray. More is less is generally the case with blockbuster sequels these days, with budgetary bloat ceaselessly overshadowing the characteristics that made the unique movie click on with target audiences. The Fast and the Furious motion pictures, alternatively, in some means be in a position of spin doughnuts round this idea of diminishing returns, with each installment turning into more ridiculously interesting. Fast Five may be probably the most overblown entry within the series thus far (which is saying relatively a bit), however there's a dunderheaded earnestness to it that is exhausting to withstand.
