But why would the virtuous muscle-head ever turn his back on the crew? (Hilariously, the answer – SPOILER WARNING – is of course, yet again, family, as it's revealed Dom is protecting his secret baby son.) There are highlights to the increasingly-knowing mayhem – a self-driving-car-hacking mass street chase, a burly prison-break brawl featuring Dwayne Johnson's Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham's Deckard Shaw, and a Hard Boiled-nodding final reel – but the big submarine-on-ice set-piece never quite connects, and Paul Walker's presence is missed. Gary Gray, Fast 8 (aka The Fate Of The Furious) cooks up another brilliantly soap-opera-worthy twist, with Dom – gasp! – turning against the Family and siding with Charlize Theron's unfortunately-dreadlocked villain Cypher.

Credit, though, for introducing Tyrese Gibson's Roman and Ludacris' Tej – and giving us Brian's fan-favourite blue-striped Nissan Skyline. With tricked-out rides, primary-hued paintjobs and custom LEDs galore, its distinctly early-'00s aesthetic is almost endearingly kitsch now, though its race scenes are lacking – overly reliant on shonky CGI that gives it a sub-Speed Racer digital sheen without the Wachowskis' psychedelic sugar-rush.

#FAST AND FURIOUS IN ORDER SERIES#
Right from the ridiculous chrome-plated Universal logo in its opening credits, 2 Fast is the series at its most cartoonish – all candy-colours, cheese-fest dialogue, and hyperactive visuals. That left it up to Paul Walker's Brian O'Conner to shoulder proceedings, this time hiding out in Miami and roped into an FBI plot to take down a drug lord.

READ MORE: Every Harry Potter Movie Ranked Take a look at how a modest little drag-racing movie became the most pumped-up, sweaty-browed, physics-defying, ego-clashing blockbuster soap opera in cinema history – and get ready for the next ridiculous chapter. To celebrate the anniversary of the original Fast film and the launch of its latest entry – which brings John Cena into the fray as Dom Toretto’s secret brother Jakob, and somehow brings Sung Kang’s fan-favourite Han Seoul-Oh back from the dead again – Empire presents our ranking of every Fast film so far (9 notwithstanding – no spoilers here) decided in a rooftop wrench-fight at dusk. But here we are – the legacy of The Fast And The Furious still lives on, beginning with that mid-budget street-racing film about a criminal gang stealing millions of dollars worth of DVD players, and now giving us a majestic magnet plane in the imminent Fast & Furious 9.

The latest include spin-off Hobbs & Shaw and the long-delayed F9.Twenty years ago, a cinematic saga ran its first quarter-mile – the beginnings of a major, world-beating movie franchise that nobody expected would still be igniting the box office two decades later on its 10th instalment. Furious 7 reached a high emotional crescendo in the wake of Walker’s death, while follow-up F8 saw a dip, though stayed in the Fresh lane. And since then it’s been on a skyward trajectory, like a souped-up Karmann Ghia ramping off an Arrakis sandworm and barrel rolling between a fleet of nuclear dirigibles (you know we’re heading in this direction).

It was finally the fifth Furious film that earned the franchise’s first Fresh. And as the stunts got crazier for Dom (Vin Diesel), Brian (Paul Walker), Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) and the whole F&F-in’ family, critics were just as willing to go along for the ride.
