Read our privacy policy The new Fast & Furious film reunites Hobbs & Shaw, the characters played by Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham. As expected with each release from this franchise, it’s extremely fun and complete nonsense – and even won over our critic Clarisse Loughrey, whose review you can read here. After seeing him having a conversation with Hobbs’ daughter about the HBO show, we later see him angrily criticising the way the show ended – specifically how Jon Snow had sex with his auntie, Daenerys Targaryen, and then ended up killing her. It may have seemed like a fun idea when the fantasy series broadcast its controversial finale back in May, but it’s something that’s clearly going to date the film in years to come.
