Fast and Furious shocks with a canceled scene
The otherwise so family-friendly franchise surprises with brutal violence
The Fast and Furious films have always been made for a large audience and are fairly easy to
watch. All the more reason for the fuss of the new Hobbs and Shaw some time ago, because
the scene in which Luke Hobbs bites his opponent's eye out was too much for the producers.
Instead, the first spinoff is aimed at a Pegi 13 age rating in the USA.
Not a surprise at first, but director David Leitch also announced that he has cut out the
tough scenes for the cinema version, yet wants to save them for home cinema. Jason
Statham also talks about a censorship, which has caused some brutal scenes to be cut out. In
detail, he even talks about the fact that a lot of things were rated too x rated for the movie,
which is the highest age rating in the USA that hasn' t been given since 1990.
However, for fans of the more brutal entertainment it is likely that these scenes can be seen
on Blu Ray at the latest. But before that there will be a cinema release on August 2st, which
means that we will have to wait a bit longer for the DVD release.
