Fast & Furious review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 09/14/2012
Sometimes franchises are hit or miss due to the cast, screenplay and direction. In the case of The Fast and Furious, with a decent director it can work. Film starts where Dominic Toretto's (Vin Diesel) crew start hijacking fuel tankers. Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) tries to track a drug dealer. One of the most serious from the franchise with thrilling action sequences that keep you enticed all-throughout. It shows that Vin Diesel can do a little drama. If only there was better character development and a more devious antagonist. Soundtrack and direction were wonderful compared to the last two. Fast & Furious is one of the darkest and well acted of the bunch, with car chases never scene before, despite it's feel of Hollywood effects instead of capturing realism.

Does it work? Not really. But it is a step up from its predecessor and features a fun little cameo from …

Fourth Times the Charm

Although still not as good as the original, the fourth installment of the Fast and Furious series makes up for the misguided third film and even betters the second.
This is a guy's movie all the way - fast cars, half-naked women (sometimes making out), action galore and the right touch of humor. Better yet, the story is not only coherent, it manages to throw in a decent show of emotion. This is the movie that guys will drag their girlfriends to in order to make up for Sex and the City.
Besides the decent enough story, the main thing the movie has going for it is that the principle cast has joined us once again. While Paul Walker isn't the most exciting actor around, he's still a welcome return. Vin Diesel still plays the brooding anti-hero to perfection. Jordana Brewster and …
