Summaries

Plot Summary

In London, MI6 agent Hattie Shaw (Vanessa Kirby) and her team attempt to retrieve a programmable super-virus dubbed "Snowflake" from techno-terrorist organization Eteon. Brixton Lore (Idris Elba) is an ex-MI6 Agent turned Eteon operative with cybernetic implants that allow him to perform superhuman feats. He arrives and kills all the agents except Hattie, who injects the only dose of Snowflake into herself before escaping. Brixton frames Hattie for killing her team and stealing Snowflake, forcing her to go on the run.Ex-DSS Agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) and ex-MI6 Agent Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) are informed of the missing virus and reluctantly work together to track it down. Luke is estranged from his Samoan family and Shas has not seen his sister for a while. Locke (Ryan Reynolds) is the CIA agent who briefs Luke about the virus in front of Luke's daughter Sam. Locke tells Luke about how Hattie went rogue with the virus. After a brief meeting at a CIA black site at the Leadenhall Building (where Hobbs and Shaw refuse to work with each other under any circumstances), Deckard goes to Hattie's apartment for information, only to get attacked by Eteon operatives.Meanwhile Hobbs manages to find Hattie (he knows Hattie is MI-6 and looks for her in the streets not covered by CCTV cameras); after a brief scuffle, he brings her to the CIA offices. As Deckard arrives, he informs him that she is actually his sister. Hattie reveals that the virus is inside her. The office is attacked, and Hattie is taken by Brixton, whom Deckard recognizes as an old colleague-turned-enemy he believes killed by him. Hobbs and Deckard pursue and rescue Hattie, and during an ensuing car chase, evade Brixton, who crashes into a double-Decker bus. However, Brixton frames all three as traitors via Eteon's control of global news media.The three locate Snowflake's creator, Professor Andreiko (Eddie Marsan) (he buys his Russian newspaper from the same newsstand every morning), where they learn he purposed it to efficiently deliver vaccines. To prevent Eteon from using it to eradicate humanity, Hattie, while the virus is still dormant (in the next 42 hrs the capsules inside Hattie will dissolve, releasing the virus. At this point it will go airborne. Global contamination within a week. The virus cannot be reprogrammed inside a host), must either be cremated or have the virus removed with a specialized extraction device, which is located in Eteon's special facility in Chernobyl, Ukraine. Andreiko had created the virus as a creator of vaccines, but Eteon betrayed him and used his work for global terrorism instead. Eteon wants to eliminate the weakest humans, the ones not fit for Eteon's vision of humanity (the perfect being). Meanwhile Eteon's unknown director is giving constant upgrades to Brixton's implants to make him stronger and faster. He also tells Brixton that he wants Hobbs and Shaw working for Eteon's cause.Although Hobbs was briefly detained due to Deckard making his fake alias "Mike Oxmaul," the three manage to travel to Moscow. Andreiko is abducted by Brixton and not Brixton that the trio is coming to Ukraine. After rendezvousing with Deckard's former flame Margarita (Eiza González) to rearm in Moscow, the three infiltrate the facility. As per plan Margarita delivers Hattie to Brixton, who takes her right to the extraction machine. Meanwhile Hobbs and Shaw attack the facility from the air. Hobbs and Shaw are captured by Brixton and his men and tortured with electrical shocks. Using this diversion, Hattie disarms her guards and escapes with the extraction machine and Andreiko. Hattie then launches a counter-attack to rescue Hobbs and Shaw from Brixton. They retrieve the device before escaping in a truck during the facility's destruction, though Andreiko is killed, and the device is damaged.Hobbs takes Deckard and Hattie to his childhood home in Samoa to visit his estranged brother Jonah (Cliff Curtis), a talented mechanic, to repair the device and lay low off the grid before confronting Brixton's forces again. Hobbs has a tense reunion with his family as he had turned his father to the authorities prior (His father wanted Luke and Jonah to enter the burglary business with him, but only Hobbs was able to see through his lies. He was OK with putting Luke and Jonah's life in danger and so Luke turned him in), but their mother convinces Jonah to help.The makeshift battalion prepares for Eteon's arrival, disabling the weapons used by Eteon's team by temporarily shutting down their authorization code, and setting up a variety of traps around the island. Jonah successfully repairs the device and starts the virus extraction just as Brixton and his army arrive.In the ensuing battle, the Samoans engage and easily overpower Brixton's reinforcements while suffering minimal casualties. Brixton recaptures Hattie with a helicopter; however, Hobbs, Deckard, and the Samoans bring the aircraft down with several custom trucks.Working together, Hobbs and Deckard alternate their attacks to defeat Brixton, who is remotely terminated afterward by Eteon's unseen director. The director sends a message claiming to know Hobbs and intending to persuade him and the Shaw siblings, while they promise to find the director; the group then celebrates their victory.Hobbs brings his daughter Sam Hobbs (Eliana Su'A) to meet their extended family in Samoa; Deckard and Hattie are implied to bust their mother Magdalene "Queenie" Shaw (Helen Mirren) out of prison; and Hobbs receives a call from his partner, Locke, who has broken into a laboratory and discovered a more threatening virus. Hobbs also secretly has the London police set on Deckard in retaliation for the "Mike Oxmaul" prank, which Hobbs told the police that Deckard's name was "Hugh Janus".
