Later in the same scene they drive a Mclaren underneath two 53' trailers passing each other, while Idris Elba does the same, power sliding on the ground on his motorbike that transforms like a Michael Bay Transformer. In the climax, The Rock holds a military helicopter back with a chain, like Captain America.
It's fine if you accept that these characters are literally superheroes now, but definitely not anywhere close to believable.
Vanessa Kirby is great though. Those eyes, man.

Yeah, I worded it poorly. I meant more that it walked the line between the 'bombastic action' and 'actually believable' a lot better than the recent F&F's, but it's still an action movie, with all that entails.
