The Fast and the Furious:
The Fast and the Furious is a nitro-burning joyride that makes
outstanding use of special effects, innovative camera work, and a
nonstop throbbing soundtrack. From the opening sequence--a
high-speed, high-tech truck robbery--the film never drops below
the red line. Roaring along at breakneck speed, Dom (Vin Diesel)
and his crew meet on the streets of L.A. each night to show off
their high-powered racers. When new guy Brian (Paul Walker) wants
to add his fuel to the fire, he can't up the cash to race,
but offers up his car as collateral. In their tiny jacked
compacts, Dom, Brian, and Edwin (Ja Rule) burst into a high-gear
race with Brian nearly beating perennial champion Dom. But in the
final moments, he loses the race and his car. Brian's debt is
quickly cleared, however, when he saves Dom both from the cops
and from a potentially violent encounter with Johnny Tran (Rick
Yune), a rival gang lord. Dom takes Brian under his wing--a
decision that disgusts his gang but delights his sister Mia
(Jordana Brewster). The gang never suspects that Brian is not who
he seems: he is actually an undercover cop, and though he wishes
otherwise, he's there to bust Dom for committing the armed truck
robbery witnessed in the opening scenes.

2 Fast 2 Furious:
.co.uk Review - Like the high-revving imports and American muscle
cars that roar down the streets of its south Florida setting, 2
Fast 2 Furious is tricked out to the max. While Vin Diesel opted
for his XXX franchise, this obligatory sequel to The Fast and the
Furious benefits from Diesel's absence, allowing returning star
Paul Walker to shine while forging a lively partnership with
rising star Tyrese, who fulfills his sidekick duties with more
vitality than Diesel could ever muster. The Miami/Dade locations
are another bonus, lending colourful backdrop to the most
dazzling street-racing sequences (both real and digitally
composited) ever committed to film. The plot is
disposable--former cop Walker and jailbird Tyrese are recruited
by the FBI to dethrone a thuggish kingpin (Cole Hauser)--but
director John Singleton keeps the adrenalin pumping, enlisting a
rainbow coalition of costars (including rapper Ludacris and
Chanel supermodel Devon Aoki) to combine a hip-hop vibe with
full-blown action while showcasing hot babes, edgy humour, and
some of the coolest cars that ever burned rubber. Heed the
movie's warning, kids: Let the stuntmen do the driving. --Jeff

The Fast and the Furious - Tokyo Drift:
.co.uk Review: The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift has all the
elements that spelled success for its predecessors: Speed, sex,
and minimal dialogue. The plot doesn't need explication; it's a
nonsensical series of confrontations and standoffs that serve to
get us from one race to another. Tokyo Drift can most accurately
be described as a visual poem about screeching tires, crunching
fiberglass, and sleek female skin, set to a killer soundtrack of
Japanese pop and hip-hop. The actors are only needed for tight
close-ups of narrowed eyes or sweaty hands tightly gripping
gearshifts, though Sung Kang, Better Luck Tomorrow, stands out as
a vaguely philosophical hoodlum with deadpan charisma. The curved
bodies of the cars and the luscious of the women are both
with a fetishistic hunger. The "drift" style of racing--in
which the cars are allowed to slide in order to take sharp turns
at high speeds--grabs your eyes; there's a strange, spectral
beauty to rows of cars sliding sideways down a ain road at
night. Also starring Lucas Black (Friday Night Lights) as our
wheel-happy hero; Bow Wow (Roll Bounce) as the scam-artist comic
; and martial arts legend Sonny Chiba (Kill Bill) as a
yakuza big . --Bret Fetzer

Fast & Furious:
Vin Diesel and Paul Walker re-team for the ultimate chapter of
the franchise built on speed--Fast & Furious. Heading back to the
streets where it all began, they rejoin Michelle Rodriguez and
Jordana Brewster to blast muscle, tuner and exotic cars across
Los Angeles and floor through the Mexican desert in the new
high-octane action-thriller. When a crime brings them back to
L.A., fugitive ex-con Dom Toretto (Diesel) re-ignites his feud
with agent Brian O’Conner (Walker). But as they are forced to
confront a shared enemy, Dom and Brian must give in to an
uncertain new trust if they hope to out-manoeuvre him. From
convoy heists to precision tunnel crawls across international
lines, two men will find the best way to get revenge: push the
limits of what’s possible behind the wheel.
