Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift, The - Various Artists

Advantages: Some Fancy cars
Disadvantages: All been done before, poor direction, script and acting

...seemed almost inevitable that The Fast and The Furious franchise would make a third and hopefully final outing. The first film seemed to have something different, it was a decent concept, with a couple of decent actors and the whole concept worked. The second was no where near as good but at least held a throw back to the first film with the retention of one of the lead characters. From the moment I heard about Tokyo Drift I thought it would be a ...
...was no way a third Fast and The Furious film should ever have been made. Even the soundtrack, which I found to be a huge part of the previous films, seemed to pass me by without making any impact at all.

...or anything, I just like fast cars and illegal racing :P The quality of the acting I thought was superb, especially Bow Wow playing the part of 'Twinkie', as he seemed to blend into the scene as if he actually was in downtown Tokyo, street racing in some bizarre 'Hulk' themed Volkswagen. Lucas Black I thought played the part very well but in some places his acting left much to be desired, as he seemed to be acting as if somebody was holding the ... Read review

...are a fan of the Fast and the Furious series or a fan of seriously modified fast cars or the underground drifting scene in Japan this movie is for you. Although the story is a bit reminiscend of the first F & F movie the interest lies in the tokyo underground drifting scene background, that was researched for this movie and gets portrayed pretty good.
