3 Reasons Why Fast X Ending Is Not So Exciting (If Not Even Annoying)
When even a cliffhanger doesn't help you, maybe it's a sign.
True Fast & Furious franchise fans were extremely happy to get one more of the action movies these days. And frankly, it seems that virtually nothing could have disappointed them in the film.
But those who dig even a little deeper have found a lot of things to be annoyed with. And the major issue from this list is actually the ridiculous cliffhanger ending of Fast X that just seems absolutely dull and inappropriate.
And here are some proofs of that.
1. Gisele is Alive?
One of the critical points about Fast X is that the movie was actually overstuffed with characters and subplots. This includes the return of some characters that were supposed to be... dead.
For example, fans say that there was hardly any explanation for the return of Gal Gadot's Gisele. We just happen to find out that she is safe and sound. She shows up at the end of the movie in Antarctica in a submarine to pick up... Cipher.
And with this addition to Gisele's storyline, the number of questions only increases. Why should she work with her? As she knows, she is the enemy for Dom and his Fast family.
Well, it seems like this is just another loose thread that will be picked up in a future movie. Or not.
2. So Cipher is Still a Villain?
It's a well-known fact that some of the Fast & Furious movies have a history of allowing villains like Shaw or Jakob to redeem themselves for their past actions. Fast X villain Cipher turns to Dom for help after Dante's violent power grab of her team.
And yes, we know that she is playing mostly out of self-interest, but still, the new movie would suggest that the redemption arc will take place there.
But the truth is that it is still unknown if her intentions are not cruel and if her teaming up with Dom will be a good thing for him.
3. Where Is Mr Nobody And Why He Left?
Mr. Nobody, amazingly played by Kurt Russell, first appeared in Furious 7 and continued to play the head of the mysterious Agency in the next two movies.
Dom's crew worked on missions for him. But after a plane crash that happened in the 9th movie he just suddenly disappeared.
Many fans thought that Fast X would give them some answers about Mr. Nobody's fate, but there was nothing about him in the movie, except for the fact that his daughter was introduced in the movie.
If the next movie reveals that he just died off-screen, that would be a really lousy thing to do.
And if the reason is that Russell just wasn't interested in continuing the role, that's another mystery that Fast X could have solved instead of ignoring it completely.
