- 80Total FilmJamie GrahamTotal FilmJamie GrahamWan has fashioned a nitro-fuelled thrill-ride that forms a fitting tribute to its blue-eyed bro.
- 80EmpireEmpireA group more bulletproof than The Avengers, causing more mayhem than General Zod. Think Universal doesn’t have a superhero franchise? Think again.
- 80TheWrapAlonso DuraldeTheWrapAlonso DuraldeIf incoming director James Wan (“The Conjuring,” “Saw”) falls the tiniest bit short of what Justin Lin brought to the third, fifth and sixth entries, Furious 7 nonetheless ranks a very successful fourth place overall, with at least one gargantuan set piece that ranks among the series’ finest.
- 70VarietyScott FoundasVarietyScott FoundasFurious 7 provides both a satisfying chapter in the movies’ preeminent gearhead soap opera and a tactful, touching memorial to Walker.
- 60The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeA film that (whatever massive efforts were required to work around [Paul Walker's] absence) is as stupendously stupid and stupidly diverting as it could have hoped to be had everything gone as planned.
- 60The TelegraphRobbie CollinThe TelegraphRobbie CollinI’ve always enjoyed the idea of the Fast & Furious films more than their execution, but this feels like the series’ strongest, even though some of its action sequences are so muddled they can barely walk straight.
- 60The GuardianCatherine ShoardThe GuardianCatherine ShoardThere’s something about the franchise’s earnest investment in its characters that’s quite unique. Its longevity is because it functions as much as a soap as an action flick.
- 60Time Out LondonTom HuddlestonTime Out LondonTom HuddlestonThe sheer sense of ludicrous, punch-the-air joie de vivre is impossibly infectious.
- 58The PlaylistCharlie SchmidlinThe PlaylistCharlie SchmidlinCacophonous, gratuitous, and peppered with absolutely outstanding action sequences, Furious 7 finds the franchise at an unwanted crossroads, but it makes such a play for the diehard fans that it leaves everyone else at somewhat of a loss.
