Here's the perfect way to see 'The Fate of the Furious'

Universal4DX combines motion, fog, rain, lighting, scent, wind, and other elements to basically make you feel like you're living a movie along with the characters.

For now, you can catch a 4DX screening at select Regal Cinemas in New York City, Los Angeles, Orlando, or Seattle.

I watched "The Fate of the Furious" in 4DX to tell the world what it's like.

And it's overwhelming at first. Imagine Star Tours at Disney World, but for two and a half hours. And with Vin Diesel, The Rock, Jason Statham, and the "Fast and Furious" "family."
