The Fast and the furious.
Movie review.
Story line:
Undercover cop is trying to uncover a gang of cargo highjacks. The gang is part of the street racing scene and the 5-0 joins to gain trust.
What I liked:
- A movie that has tons of racing action
- Hot chicks driving fast cars
What I disliked:
- It portraits the Los Angeles Street Racing scene but is far from what really happens. Unrealistic races lasting too long to be quarter mile runs.
- 99% of the cars are rice burners. Imports are cool and all but that is not what dominates the streets.
- The cop uncovers the bad guys and lets them go at the end. Very unrealistic
- The only V8 used from the movie trailer comes only to play in the last 10 minutes. Fast forward if that is what you are looking for.
- They use juice only at the top end of there runs. Tires spin at 100mph after the switch is flipped.
- Its obvious that NOS and HKS are sponsors of this flick (Not necessarily a bad thing actually).
Final Thoughts:
- The preview trailer is more promising then the movie itself unless you get off on hi-r 4 banger engines on boost and squeeze.
- Watch gone in 60 seconds instead. The 2000 version or the original.
