This movie all I can is if the main actor was someone way better this would have actually been okay.

 

The racing was great however and really made drifting popular.

 

6.5/10

Huge Guilty pleasure of mine.

 

I love Han to death, and overall i think its a really just a fun movie. The ending race is lackluster though.

not as bad as they make it out to be ... if only the main actor was actually able to even try to act

I'd like to draw people's attention to this video.

 

 

Go to 1:24. There is a person keeling out of that car that a pedestrian attends to.

 

Thoughts?

Is that in response to me?

 

If so, that was meant to draw discussion about the scene in Fast 6.

Horrible. People complain about Taylor Kitsch but at least he has charisma. 2/5

and doesn't have an awful accent

This one is the weakest I've seen so far thanks to Lucas Black being super obnoxious and lacking every bit of charisma. I did enjoy it though as the action was pretty well done and I think Han is a cool character, although a lot of that is baggage from me seeing Furious 6. In the weirdest sentence I've ever written about a movie, I'll say that I found myself also surprisingly looking forward to Bow Wow's screentime as well. Not as good as the others, but still enjoyable once it gets going. B-

I finally watched it for the first time.

Definitely the worst of them. Mainly the combination of Lucas Black's acting, accent and the dialogue that went with the accent.

The plot seems to move forward based on Sean's requirement to race someone to win a girl.

Still, the race scenes were well done.

I had assumed Han died at the end of the film.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift has the best races of any film in this franchise. Unfortunately, this huge positive ultimately means nothing when none of the characters are compelling. Even Han, often considered the best part of this film, really is only interesting after knowing his story in the following films. Lin brings a cool flare to the direction, and the Tokyo setting adds a lot of fun atmosphere, but ultimately, this is a franchise about character and family. The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift has nothing of note there, and thus, is an incredibly weak entry in the franchise. D-
