The Fate of the Furious director F. Gary Gray: ‘The mantra for this movie was real, real, real, real, real’
This weekend, The Fate of the Furious bested The Force Awakens to claim the mantle of biggest worldwide debut. The not-so-subtle superhero franchise is cherished for escalating over-the-top action sequences that mirror the low-key hyperrealism found in early Marvel films. (At one point in the latest film, Dom practically gets his own first-generation Iron Man suit.) The latest film is lousy with… → Read More
