While he forces each to atone for their sins, he must also face what meting out vengeance will do to his immortal soul. Meanwhile, he’s not the only one looking to settle old scores. Hired by the man responsible for the events which lead him to prison, an eccentric contract killer follows his every move. Scenes of them crossing paths, sometimes violently, are interspersed with the assassin’s self-realizations of how to deal with struggles within his own life. As if old enemies & hired guns aren’t enough, a young female detective begrudgingly works alongside a veteran investigator looking to simply survive his last two weeks on the force before retirement, as they seek out the brazen ex-con who has been blazing a path of gasoline-powered destruction in his vintage Chevelle.
Plot: After 10 years in prison, Driver is now a free man with a single focus – hunting down the people responsible for brutally murdering his brother.

My 369th Review: One Of The Better Films About Vengeance (Not Revenge) In A Long Time
I went expecting a basic action film. I did not get it.What we got was a man’s movie – and in this reviewer’s opinion one of the best in recent memory.
This it is not yet another film about revenge – it is a film about vengeance, and that’s another animal entirely. If the true essence of great story-telling and myth is that it takes us on a journey that is on the surface almost simplistic, but leaves the audience more by the end; then Faster succeeds and succeeds way beyond expectations.
In side-stepping the current vogue for mindless action it does hark back to the 70s – and the look and feel are very true to those roots. Finally, we might be leaving aside the lowbrow sarcastic sadism that has ruled action films for a decade now and getting to action film that engages rather than kills to entertain.
Director George Tillman keeps the speech sparse and the direction too. While the film overhypes the testosterone levels through the hardware and the subplots there is an overall spareness to this that lifts the film. Finally, it doesn’t establish that there may be a world beyond vengeance too soon. In the dialog between a truly excellent Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and Johnson the film goes from one level to another entirely. For this reviewer, the Gaytons have written in that exchange one of the most iconic scenes on film in recent memory. And if this sounds like raving, then it is because it deserves it: brilliant writing and stone-hard action combine to give the audience an experience to remember.
This is a film that needed a star to really work, and in Dwayne Johnson it has found one. He creates a character that is the closest I’ve seen to the uncompromising spirit of Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven and Dirty Harry in quite a while. Here, there is genuine steel in the eye. This is tough without the token quips and ironic smiles. This is tough, mean tough, gutsy, down to business, get the job done, film-making for men, tough.
Without a doubt a man’s film – and one of the best in recent memory – and while Johnson’s clowning may have been a strength in some previous films the uncompromising hardness he shows here has the potential to make him a real A-lister.
Go be surprised as we were.
Not very good.
Instead of perpetually gravitating to these fantasies, dumb-down for their stunted intellects.How many times do you need to be told you are dumb, until it finally sinks into your thick mentally challenged craniums? But what do you expect from a wrestler, and the audience willing to buy into his reality, who builds his steroid-enhanced body up for a modern reality where a single bullet can end your life? Only gym rats enjoy Dwayne Johnson movies, as they live their action filled fantasies out in director controlled realities. These clowns are useless to society and continue to fawn over gorillas like this, hoping to relive the glory days of their high school athletic careers that went no where, despite their repetitive boastings that argued otherwise.
My suggestion to this childish audience, is to learn a science, English or math based skill, so that they could base their masculinity on something that actually provides a livelihood.
