History Film / FastAndFurious6

--->[[spoiler:'''Braga''': The minute you put her undercover, she was dead, bro.]]

''Fast & Furious 6'' is the sixth installment in ''Film/TheFastAndTheFurious'' franchise. Released in May 2013, takes place shortly after the end of ''Film/FastFive''.

* SacrificialLion: [[spoiler:Gisele and Han meet this fate, although in the case of the latter, it was a ForegoneConclusion since his death in ''The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift'' comes full circle, except this time, we actually get to know who killed him.]]

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Owen is stopped and Letty, though still suffering amnesia, rejoins Dom and he finally allowed to go home as part of the deal he made with Hobbs, exonerated of his crimes along with the rest of the crew. However Giselle dies in the final battle to the heartbreak of Han who finally makes good on his word to go back home to Tokyo. Only for Owen's brother, Deckard, to kill him during his escape from the Yakuza in ''Tokyo Drift'' and phone Dom not long afterwards to inform him he's coming for him.]]

** [[spoiler: Gisele]] also falls out of the plane in a HeroicSacrifice moment and is assumed dead by the others, although [[HesJustHiding some fans question this]], especially given that [[spoiler:Shaw went through much worse and is revealed to have survived in the sequel]], and [[NeverFoundTheBody no body is shown]].

* ArtisticLicensePhysics: When Dom saves Letty at the end of the tank chase, he catches her in mid-air and continues on the same trajectory as he had before. Considering the law of conservation of momentum, the only way it makes sense is if the weight difference between Dom and Letty was so vast that her mass is negligible compared to his. The devil in the details might be that, as well as certainly weighing almost twice as much as her, Dom was moving considerably faster than Letty, so he would have had enough momentum to cancel hers, but the whole move would still being a veritable miracle (which is ironically lampshaded in-universe by both Dom and Letty afterwards).

-->'''Brian:''' ''(To Dom)''... you mean Skyline.

* DamselInDistress: [[spoiler: Mia gets kidnapped by Owen Shaw and the team has to rescue her by hijacking a plane.]]

* DisneyVillainDeath: [[spoiler:The SUV Owen Shaw is in hits a barrier at the back of the cargo plane that the final action scene takes place in as the aircraft is taking off. Since he doesn't have a seat-belt on, he goes [[DestinationDefenestration flying through the front window]] and out the back of the plane, falling several hundred feet onto the runway. {{Retcon}}ned as having survived but been put in a coma in the next film, however.]]
** [[spoiler: Gisele]] also falls out of the plane in a HeroicSacrifice moment and is assumed dead by the others, although [[HesJustHiding some fans question this]], especially given that [[spoiler:Shaw went through much worse and is revealed to have survived in the sequel]], and [[NeverFoundTheBody No body is shown]].

* EasyAmnesia: {{Averted|Trope}}; [[spoiler: at the end Letty is still unable to remember anything before her "death", and makes the HeelFaceTurn on her own.]]

* FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler: Letty looks to have undergone one during her time of FakingTheDead. Subverted as it turns out she lost her memory after the crash, and Shaw took her in when he realized she had amnesia. Even with no memory, Letty shows genuine disgust at Shaw's callousness towards losing his own men and eventually reunites with the team]]

* IndyPloy: [[spoiler: Dom smashing his car into a barrier in order to launch himself and perfectly catch a falling Letty ''across a highway''. He himself admits the only reason they survived was pure luck.]]

* ArtisticLicenseGeography: The film features a NATO base in a coastal region or city given as "Lusitania, Spain". Lusitania was a name for a land of ancient Hispania (roughly covering the eastern Portugal and western Extremadura) that ceased being used with the fall of the Roman Empire, and is nowadays solely used to refer to Portugal as a poetic license. This would have been so bizarre to Spanish audiences that it had to be changed in their dub, where Lusitania instead refers to the base itself; no word is given there about where is it, although the scenes were filmed in Canary Islands and it shows in its arid terrains, so it could be mercifully assumed that it is there.
* ArtisticLicensePhysics:
** The plane pulldown scene.
** When Dom saves Letty at the end of the tank chase, he catches her in mid-air and continues on the same trajectory as he had before, violating the law of conservation of momentum. The only way it makes sense is if Dom weighs several tons (or that Letty weighs next to nothing) so that Letty's mass is negligible compared to his.
*** As well as weighing almost twice as much as her, Dom was moving considerably faster than Letty so he would have had enough momentum to cancel hers.
* AxCrazy: Shaw takes blood-chilling pleasure in crushing dozens of innocent civilians under his tank in his rampage across the Spanish freeway; made doubly disturbing by the fact that it wasn't even a necessary maneuver to flee from Dom's crew.

* CoolPlane: Roman is seen onboard a private jet with the words IT'S ROMAN, [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch BITCHES]]! plastered on the rudder.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Although Jah ultimately shares Shaw's ruthless pragmatism, Jah is visibly affected by Ivory's death.

* GratuitousForeignLanguage: Owen's crew comes from many parts of the world, and the car chase scene at the beginning has the members talk to each other with their native languages. An example is the Indonesian Jah asking Vegh, "Hantam mereka," (which is subtitled "I need your help," but actually means "Hit them".)

** The base commander says, quite logically, that the threat to one life is not worth giving up the chip that would endanger the lives of millions. However, when ''his'' life is then threatened he orders all his men to stand down and lets the bad guys go.

** Immediately before the above, Stasiak tells Brian that he could only get him into the general population of Braga's prison, so Brian will need to find his own way into solitary (where Braga is actually being held). Brian proceeds to break Stasiak's nose, which gets him immediately thrown into solitary himself.
