Lin, Part 6: Fast Five.
Running Time: 59 minutes 33 seconds
After reinvigorating the franchise with Fast &
Furious, Star Trek Beyond director Justin
Lin returned to helm the fifth film in the series, Fast
Five. This installment acted as a reunion of sorts, as series
regulars Vin Diesel and Paul Walker were joined by stars of the
previous films, including Tyrese Gibson, Gal Gadot and Sung Kang
for an Ocean's Eleven-style heist movie.
In this episode of Commentary: Trek Stars, Mike and
John continue their series on Lin's work as a director by looking
at his sixth picture. We discuss how Fast
Five builds on what has come before, Lin's continued
collaboration with his crew, and what this film tells us about his
ability to handle the large cast of Star Trek Beyond.
We also discuss the trailer for Star Wars: Rogue One,
because why not?
