The sheer joy of that formula, of this character, with every possible disadvantage stacked against him, saving the entire world through a motorbike cliff jump – that’s the magic of these movies.

A testament to the quality of this film and its handling of suspense […] is that although there are missiles and all manner of other Fast and Furious-esque set pieces, nothing is more thrilling than a low-fi, nostalgic dog fight using nothing more than bullets and mean words.
