It’s time to hit Miami in John Singleton’s installment of the Fast Franchise, and we’re walking Mark Boone Junior rat torture, houseboats, Tej’s hair and old school graphics.

232 - BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID
From a comedy western to a western with comic elements, it’s time to get some Paul Newman Eyes in the mix, and the eternal charm of Robert Redford.
