Go To

  • At one point, Hobbs is locked up in prison and is right across the cell of Deckard Shaw. He is not pleased at all.:
    Shaw: Do you really believe you could beat me in a straight-up old-fashioned fistfight?
    Hobbs: Let me tell you something: Me and you, one-on-one. No one else around. I will beat. Your ASS. Like a Cherokee drum.
    Shaw: Maybe one day we'll find out.
  • Hobbs is shown giving a big speech on "hunting down and destroying the enemy." The camera then cuts to show he's talking to his daughter's soccer team.
    • Hobbs leads his team in a haka, stomping and yelling, slapping chests and more. The opposing team of little girls just stare in silence before one declares "I don't want to play anymore." and runs off.
    • The kicker for the scene is Hobbs' deadpan statement that if the team loses, he will have to spend a lot of time at Tay Tay concerts to cheer the girls up.
  • The sight of Dame Helen Mirren playing the Shaws' Cockney mother.
    • The fact that she is the one who uses the Precision F-Strike in the movie makes it somewhat heartwarming in a Sophisticated as Hell sort of way.
    • When she saves Deckard, she insists he bring Owen along on the raid of the plane. Deckard refuses and Mum Shaw starts crying over not caring about family as he winces, closes his eyes and agrees... at which point, she instantly stops crying and smiles and Deckard groans "Every time."
  • The Brick Joke with Roman not being on the top 10 most wanted list, even though everyone else on the team currently is. He spends the rest of the movie trying to prove that he's worthy of being on it.
  • Near the end of the film, right before the climax, Roman is complaining about the environment they are in (being Iceland), and mentioning how he "didn't recognize [himself]" when trying to take a piss. It comes back later when Hobbs picks him up and refers to him as "Shrinkage".
  • Roman tries to read Russian. Hilarity Ensues.
  • When Deckard is rescuing Dom's son (Brian) from the plane and fighting bad guys at the same time. He gives the baby boy earmuffs and music so he won't hear all the gunfire and general mayhem, and the kid just has a big adorable 0.
    • And before that, Deckard telling his brother to be careful because Owen doesn't have good luck with planes. Owen's reaction and response sells it.
    • Also, Deckard telling the kid "You're going to not want to see this." as he turns the seat away and beats up a guy who tried to shoot him. Afterwards, he looks at the baby, sniffs, frowns and asks "That you or him?" Cue the baby glancing at the beaten up guy: "Him."
    • Before that, there's also his reaction to the guy trying to shoot Brian.
  • Roman Pearce, the series' Butt-Monkey, is being attacked and trying to flee, and yet can't escape his attackers. Why? He's driving an orange Lamborghini, something Tej lampshades to him:
    Roman: Why are they shooting at me?
    Tej: I don't know. Maybe because you're in a orange Lamborghini.
    Roman: Shut up, Tej!
  • During the final chase;
    Little Nobody: The problem is that truck's got enough missiles to take us all out!
    Hobbs: Then don't give 'em a target! Everyone line up in front of us and we'll take the hit!
    Roman: WHAT?! [Roman grabs the radio] I need to change cars, real quick!
[...]
Ramsay: Hang on, guys! We're almost to the lock!
Roman: That's easy for you to say when your ass ain't on fire!
  • "Tea-and-crumpets eating, criminal summmmmbitch."
  • Roman and Tej spend the movie competing for Ramsey's affections. They finally lay it out for her at the end to pick one of them. Looking them over, Ramsey asks a simple question: "What's my last name?" As they both blink and stutter, she smirks that when they figure it out, she can consider one of them.
