C'mon! It should be a simple recipe: take some sweet cars, make them fast, use them a lot, and have good choreography...BUT, the most important ingredients are: keep the story and acting to a minimum. Why can't they figure that out? I really liked the first Fast and the Furious, kinda liked Tokyo Drift, hated Too Fast Too Furious. This one falls into 3rd place.
So we go to a late show on Tuesday...they apparently have $1 popcorn on Tuesdays. My gf doesn't want to watch (I don't blame her), so she goes to watch Monsters vs Aliens. I come to find out that she was the only person in that theater! And further, she said that the movie sucked. Check it out, 2 reviews in 1.
So I haven't verified this, but apparently this story takes place between the 1st and 2nd fast and furious movies. It also ties itself into Tokyo Drift as well with a 2 minute cameo by that Han dude.
The good: There are about 2 cool racing scenes. Ummm....done with this section.
The bad: Almost everything else. Bad acting, bad story is a given. There isn't enough action. Zero comedy. The beginning part of the movie has some computer generated action...horrible! They try way to hard to make the characters internally conflicted about everything! Every single scene has someone whining about something.
And the ending... really?
