![]() ![]() ![]() The Dolby Vision-enhanced Ultra HD picture is nearly as perfect as you would expect from a big budget action film, even though it was reportedly shot at resolutions less than 4K and mastered in 2K. Hobbs & Shaw is also elevated by the formidable presence of Idris Elba as an evil, cyber-enhanced villain and excellent supporting performances from Vanessa Kirby, Helen Mirren, Kevin Hart, and Ryan Reynolds. With bigger star power and less at stake, this turns out to be one of the better entries in the series.The titular characters in Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw were introduced in earlier Fast & Furious films, but you don't have to know much about their backstories to enjoy this film, an extremely serviceable action-comedy that leans heavily on the charm and chemistry of its stars, Dwayne Johnson as Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham as Deckard Shaw. ![]() A couple shares a lingering, passionate kiss, and there's some flirting, innuendo, and objectification of women (the camera lingers on a woman's bottom in a dance club, cleavage is shown, etc.) - but overall, women are stronger and more independent in this movie than in previous ones in the franchise. Characters drink socially (shots, beer, etc.). Language includes a few uses of "s-t," "a-hole," "bitch," and "bastard," plus one muffled, obscured use of "f-k" and a few other words. Expect the usual over-the-top amount of comic book/cartoon-style action violence: car chases and crashes, explosions, fights, guns and shooting, and torture (fairly mild). Parents need to know that Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw is a spin-off of the hugely successful Fast & Furious series, centering on the characters played by Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham. ![]()
