Fast X - It's All About NONSENSE!

The Salty Nerd
About this episode

The Salty Nerds talk about the Fast and Furious franchise and about how much they disliked Fast X, the latest entry into the Fast saga. Too long, too bloated, and not fun at all, the Salty Nerds really HATED this movie, especially compared to the previous films (which they mostly enjoyed). Directed by newcomer to the franchise, Louis Leterrier, and supposedly the first part of a "finale trilogy," this movie brings back all the previous stars of the franchise, including Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Jason Statham, Ludacris, Charlize Theron, John Cena, Brie Larson, Helen Mirren, and a new bad guy in the form of Aquaman himself - Jason Momoa. Forget the rules of gravity or common sense, Fast X is all about the spectacle, baby! And the Salty Nerds are here to talk about it - because it's alllllll about FAMILY. What did you think of Fast X? Did you love it? Hate it? Did you make it all the way through the movie without having to go to the bathroom? Let us know on our Discord server here: http://www.saltynerddiscord.com
