Fast Five might be a critical success and an “event in cinema” (Vin’s words, not ours) but that doesn’t make it immune to criticism. Paul, June, Jason, and Adam Scott (Severance, Party Down) discuss the prison bus flip sequence, the chase scene ending with a pregnancy reveal, and all the chronological confusion that lies beneath an otherwise incredible action flick. If you haven’t seen Fast Five yet, stay until after the credits for a surprise cameo (no, not Perd Hapley). (Originally released 05/15/2011)
