NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

anselmdaniel This review contains spoilers.The Fast and The Furious is an action movie starring Paul Walker, Vin Diesel, and Michelle Rodriguez. The Fast and the Furious is an action movie that uses race cars as its main action set piece. The story follows Brian O'Conner, an undercover cop played by Paul Walker, that tracks a group of hijackers that utilize race cars.The story is really an excuse to have high octane car chases and races. From the beginning, the story opens with a car chase with the race cars in view. This scene shows the series prioritizes these scenes. I do not have a problem with this as the series is great in its ability to have some weight to its well-done action scenes. The racing scenes have not aged well with many gratuitous scenes, but this is acceptable as it is a view of both the times and culture of street racers.There are some plot holes that the audience should ignore because of the movie's focus. The main one is Brian O'Conner's willingness to allow Dominic Toretto to go free. It was strange to see as Brian never felt like a cop and should have never been part of the force. It felt more fitting that Brian be a racer attempting to work his way up rather than as an undercover cop. There would have been more street races with this route.Vin Diesel does a good job as Dominic Toretto and the movie absolutely needed his character. I did like the route the movie took with trying to establish him as a father figure to his crew. This does feel cheesy at times but it is entertaining.The action scenes are the complete focus here. You should only be watching this movie for the action. This is what made the movie a summer blockbuster hit. With the actors in their places, this movie excels at these scenes.The Fast and the Furious is not a complete movie. The movie tilts to the action side too much. This is at least enjoyable and it should be the reason to watch this movie.

EBJ ​Directed by Rob Cohen​ Starring: Paul Walker, Vin Disel and Michele RodriguezPlot Overview: After many trucks have been raided by unknown race drivers, the FBI sends in undercover cop Brian O'Connor(Paul Walker) to infiltrate infamous driver, Dominic Torretto(Vin Disel)'s team and uncover who's behind all this.# NO SPOILERS!Overall: While this movie does include some enjoyable elements, I don't think it deserved a franchise to spawn from it. Most of the lead actors were pretty weak, the story was meh but it was pretty entertaining. It is also a very quotable movie with 'You can have any drink... as long as it's a Corona' being a quote that has become surprisingly popular. The movies main focal point(its races) were also pretty weak which is stupid considering that was what this franchise was founded on. In conclusion, it's enjoyable and I recommend it, but don't expect much.The types of people who will like this movie will be people who enjoy car movies and movies including races.Would Recommend.# POSSIBLE SPOILERS!Paul Walker was fine as Brian O'Connor and the supporting cast was reasonable. Vin Disel was very weak as Dominic Toretto and he's just not a very good actor. People say that he 'keeps this franchise together' but I argue it would be better without him. It's been proved he can't act and that's never been so obvious that these movies. I liked the ending. The premise and overall story, however, were very stupid and didn't work.I liked the cinematography for the most part but I feel like the actual RACE sequences were very poorly done and looked incredibly stupid.The effect were pretty poor. The actual set and costume design was nice.This movie was entertaining from start to finish and that is what it set out to do so I will assume it succeeded in that respect. It also introduces all the characters well and gives them reasonable roles in the story. I will say that the dialogue in this movie is actually not terrible and 'You can have any drink... as long as its a Corona' is just a fun quotation. I will also say that the music didn't fit for the most part and felt out of place.Personally, I enjoyed the movie all the way through but its not something I can see myself going back to constantly because I just don't see much point to it. It has its moments and some scenes were cool but it just doesn't provide enough to kick off a franchise nor does it deserve to be this popular among fans.6/10

CinemaCocoa The surprisingly humble beginnings (by comparison) of what is now a six film series, The Fast and the Furious was a hit for bringing a new lease of life to the racing film.An undercover cop, Brian O'Conner, must discover who is to blame for goods trucks being hi-jacked and stolen by drivers in high performance street cars. He puts himself into the urban culture of street racing where he meets Dominic Toretto and his team. Brian falls for Dominic's sister, Mia, in the process and threatens his investigation and his life.The film is quite a brainless piece of entertainment, its story is predictable, it follows an undercover cop who starts to sympathize with his targets, and the characters are written spontaneously to fit the demands of the plot. You gotta love the opening dialogue: "I like the tuna here," "Nobody likes the tuna here!" Plus, Paul Walker really is a bland actor.But, that isn't why we watch the film. The Fast and the Furious does have some great car racing scenes and director Rob Cohen can shoot the cars and make them look great. What is most appealing is the physicality of the stunts and the racing; there's no CGI tomfoolery here, and there is a simplicity about the film that makes it worth watching. You don't need to suspend your disbelief, the plot doesn't shovel many excuses for racing into your face.It is a neat, nitrous oxide powered glamour film. It doesn't say much, and it will probably age badly over time (and get a remake) but it is a must for every petrol-head and car racing fan out there.

jacobjohntaylor1 This is not very good. The characters make chooses that do not make sense. The story line is awful. 2 fast 2 furious is a good movie. The fast and the furious Tokyo drift is also a good movie. Fast and the furious new model original parts is also a good movie. Fast five is also a good movie. Fast and the Furious 6 is also a good movie. Furious 7 is also a good movie. The best thing about this movie is if it had not been made the sequels would not have been made. 6.7 is overrating it. That is not a great film. I give 4. This is pretty bad. D.R no is a lot better. I like most action movies. I do not like this one. D.R no is great. From Russia with love is also a very good action movie. See that movie. Do not see this.
