Didn't care much for this flick, when it first came out, but watching it now (after the endless sequels) it seems slightly better than I remember. A descent car lovers movie. |

Despite the absolutely ridiculous premise, the first Fast & The Furious movie is also the freshest. There is an energy in the incredible stunts and a boldness to the action scenes that, if anything, makes the film entertaining and fun. |

"The Fast And The Furious" by Yojimbo |
|
Strong but silent tough guy Vin Diesel's life is the envy of every frat boy; by day he bonds and butts heads with white men who call each other "dawg" and say things like "aiight" and "sup?", by night he races flash cars with every racially stereotypical homie in the "hood" followed by all-night parties full of Baywatch extras who will get it on with each other on demand. Then along comes Paul Walker to throw a 3/4 inch torque wrench into the works by being torn between his duties as undercover cop and loyalty to his new playmates. It's easy to take the piss out of the plot of this kind of formulaic actioner, but at least it included one, unlike the similar but even more lame-brained Gone In 60 Seconds. It uses the usual Hollywood devices of having "good" bad guys (ones who have a good, p... |

The Fast and the Furious review |
|
"I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I'm free." The film that made a star out of Vin Diesel. LAPD officer Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) goes undercover and befirends Dominic "Dom" Toretto (Vin Diesel) and meets Brian also meets Letty (Michelle Rodriguez). Music was upbeat, the plot was simple, cast did a decent job and the cars were just gorgeous. The street races, girls and cars are a sight to look at, this pop corn flick was a thrill ride. Overload of characters, a few dull drama and a somewhat disappointing conclusion. Action sequences were good and pace just sufficient to keep you glued. |
