the fast and furious

Advantages: action,taking
Disadvantages: none

The film is packed with action from the word go with a bit of intrigue, a story line which never really shows up, some truly gripping scenes of cars zooming through desolate streets thrown in for good measure. An undercover cop, a beautiful girl, a tough thug with a heart of gold are all mixed into a concoction, which is a product of Hollywood's pure indulgence. Reels and reels of film are used to show the excitement of dangerous racing and cars ...
...Toretto (Vin Diesal) drives on the streets of LA like he owns it. And as far as his gang is concerned he does. He spends his days putting wrench time into high performance racing cars- make and model matter less than the computer controlled fuel injection that makes them literally fly. At nights however it is complete mayhem and anarchy fuelled by adrenaline and high speed. Dom pilots his own earth bound rocket, pocketing as much as $10,000 a ...

great film swat

Advantages: colin farrell
Disadvantages: n/a

This is a film with Colin Farrell and you will not be disappointed with this film. It has everything you need from a film with action in it. Colin Farrell plays Officer Jim Street who has been demoted in his job as a police officer after a mishap on his last job his partner left but Street decided to stock it out and go for the demotion, until Hondo played by Samuel L Jackson turns up at the station to create a new team for the forces SWAT. Hondo ...
...with various other troublesome people in the police force. Along with Street, are Deke Kay played by LL Cool J, Michael Boxer played by Brian Van Holt, T.J. McCabe played by Josh Charles and Chris Sanchez played by Michelle Rodriguez who all make the grade in Hondo's SWAT team. Their first job is to escort a drug dealer Alex Montel played by Olivier Martinez to prison, although this was not as easy as it was thought as he had offered anyone a cash ...

a fast and furious way to waste your money

Advantages: Three films with unbeliavably nice cars in
Disadvantages: The films arnt that great

Although i enjoyed the first two films and didn't love nor hate the third. i feel this release is unnecessary. but the main reason i don't really like it is all down to the third film; The fast and the furious-Tokyo drift. if it didn't have "The fast and the furious" in the title you would have know idea its anything to do with the other two. at least they had the same character in. but this is just a completely different thing alltoghter. i thought ...
...garage like it said in the film. but anyway ill move on. The fast and the furious- i really enjoyed this film, it was different to anything i had seen back then and the characters were good as well. the story follows Brian O'Connor played excellently by Paul Walker an undercover cop assigned to find out who's stealing electronic equipment he gets in with Domenic Toretto played brilliantly by Vin Diesel, whilst trying to find out who stole the ...

Review of The Fast And The Furious Collection (Box Set) (DVD)

The Fast and the Freakin' Awesome DVD

Advantages: Great bonus features, great film
Disadvantages: DVD-rom features won't work on all computers :(

...in L.A., 'The Fast and The Furious' tells of an undercover cop (Paul Walker, aka "Brian O'Connor") who is sent in to investigate the thefts of expensive electronic appliances and entertainment systems from hijacked, moving trucks. He sets about getting into the life of Domonic Toretto (Diesel), an infamous street racer, and one of the top suspects in the case. Along the way, O'Connor gets sucked into the gritty underworld of illegal street racing, ...
...(Jordana Brewster). The films winds through many different locations and keeps the audience on the edge in a whodunnit manner, and shows the torment being inflicted on O'Connor, as he is torn between justice, love, his job, and his friends (not to mention his new found need for speed). Despite some less than average acting moments from several of the cast, on the whole it is an entertaining and truly exhilerating film. The action scenes are well ...

Review of The Fast And The Furious (Turbo Edition) (DVD)

S.W.A.T

Advantages: Pretty good and principle
Disadvantages: result missed a bit

...members of a Los Angles S.W.A.T. unit (Special Weapons and Tactics). Gamble is a bit headstrong; when he disobeys orders (but saves the hostage) at a bank robbery he puts both of their careers in danger. The very arrogant, Capt. Fuller (Larry Poindexter) wants to demote them for their activity - Gamble quits the force but Street is willing to take his lumps in the off chance that he can rejoin S.W.A.T but he's going to have to shine a lot of boots ...
...5 cops for a new S.W.A.T. team. "Hondo" rounds up the best of the best - 2 guys he has already worked with, Boxer (Brian Van Holt) and T.J. (Josh Charles), the very tough Officer Chris Sanchez (Michelle Rodriguez), the very fast and well-defined Officer Deke Kay (LL Cool J), and yes he picks Street to be on his team too. They experience hard training period where not only the pretend bad guys out are to get them but so is Capt. Fuller. The real test ...
