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.

The Fast and the Furious review

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.
