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 the third was going to lead on from the second and show Brian O'Connor setting up a 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 goods O'Connor falls for Domenic's sister Mia. He ends up liking Domenic and sets out to try and prove hes innocent. the story is good but the best bits are just the cars and the racing.
The fast and the furious is by far the best in the set, you would be better off just getting this one in my opinion.
2fast2furious- i liked this film not as much as the first but more than the last so its quite fitting that's its in the middle
the story is slightly like the first in that Paul Walker returns as Brian O'Connor and with help from Roman Pearce played well by Tyrese Gibson the team again have to get in with a crime boss Carter Verone played excellently by Cole Hauser.Eva Mendes pays an undercover agent Monica Fuentes who has been with Verone for a while. it has some great car races, car and boat chases and is quite slick. but just cant beat the original.
The fast and the furious-Tokyo drift like i said already i didn't really like this film as much i just think it could of been released as nothing to do with The fast and the furious.
the story is quite good however instead of an undercover cop trying to infiltrate a gang it follows Shaun Boswell played brilliantly by Lucas Black he is sent to his dads in japan after illegal street racing and the threat of jail time. but he cant keep away from the racing.howver in japan its different, its all about drifting. he looses his first race to DK who has ties to the japanese criminals and must pay off the debt buy going into the Tokyo underworld.
if you just take the film its watchable and not that bad, it just i would of like The fast and the furious three to off been a follow on from the others.
i think the price was about £25.99 which isn't too bad but the first to are quite old films so i don't really think its worth it.
if you want to see three films with really nice cars and some good race/chase sequences it could be worth while. but if you've already seen them i would doubt you buy them for that price.
