The Fast and the Furious - Re-release

What to Expect

The original 2001 street-racing film The Fast and the Furious, rated 15A and running 107 minutes, gets a two-night re-release on a standard screen at Century Cinemas in Letterkenny. It is a short revival run timed for the same late-August weekend as the cinema’s Harry Potter and La La Land anniversary screenings, giving fans of the franchise a chance to see the film that started it all back on the big screen ahead of the newer instalments still in general release. Both showings are late-evening slots at 8:30pm rather than family matinees, which fits the film’s 15A rating.

Century Cinemas is the main commercial cinema in Letterkenny and the broader east Donegal area, and this re-release is one of three special or anniversary screenings the venue is running across the same late-August period, alongside the Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone 25th anniversary run and the La La Land 10th anniversary screenings. Unlike those two, which stretch across several days, the Fast and the Furious revival is a tighter two-night booking, so it is worth planning ahead if this is the one you want to catch rather than assuming it will still be showing the following week.
