Need For Speed Payback just wants to be the Fast and Furious. It’s enamored with the pomp and bombast of white-knuckle racing in the films, and their ability to make you care about its tight-knit family, built up from a loose collection of rejects and outlaws and bound together by crime and camaraderie. It wants to embody these things so much, that every moment in this adrenaline-fueled romp feels just like a scene from any one of Vin Diesel or Paul Walker’s fare.
