    Review: 'Fast & Furious 6' Makes Cars Go Boom In A Mostly Satisfactory Way

    Has there ever been a franchise like the "Fast & Furious?" Begun over ten years ago with a film most notable for its '50s-style B-movie title, "The Fast & The Furious," it was a modest sleeper hit. Before long the series saw its biggest draw, the potato-headed growl-monster Vin Diesel, exit the seri...

    Tank Up With 9 Clips & Lots Of New Images From 'Fast & Furious 6'

    While some filmmakers and studios have done everything in their power to build a mystique around their tentpoles -- think “Star Trek Into Darkness” or “Man Of Steel” -- the team behind “Fast & Furious 6” are clearly of the mind that “more is more.” Though the film hits theaters at the end of the...

    Gina Carano Joins That Female 'Expendables' Movie, Because Obviously

    Let's face it, Gina Carano probably won't win any Oscars, but she has a unique set of skills, charisma and charm to go with it, and some definite screen presence, so why not put that to good use? She already kicked some major ass in Steven Soderbergh's "Haywire," is revving alo...

    'Haywire' Star Gina Carano To Kick Ass Again With Another Action Movie 'In The Blood'

    Walloping Action In Soderbergh's Haywire, Plus Fassbender And McGregor

    FUTURES | How MMA Superstar Gina Carano Turned Action Hero in 'Haywire'

    Is there a chance that "Haywire" will produce a "Bourne"-type spinoff? Said Carano, "I don’t know. Of course, it was built into the contract."
