Best cars including 3 350Z's for the Z lovers (you included), Veilside RX7, had the orginal drift king himself fishing Keichi. Stunts were done by professional drifters Tanner Foust, Samuel Hubinette and Rhys Millen. Not only that the story was great, finally in another country that we are usually not used to seeing in a movie..i can keep going on. For me, it was the best out of all followed by Fast Five then the First one. Nothing is worst than the second one!
That movie was filmed in downtown LA lol... Han was awesome tho. He was the best part of the movie

I'll be 27. I don't work at pizza hut. I don't smoke crack. I own a home. I like these movies because they're entertaining. I don't let the "face palm moments" or ridiculous not possible stunts bother me. Movies r solely for entertainment. Are they Grammy winners ? No. Are they fun to an extent? Yes. Paul walker, your my boy! Torreto, I'll dust u anytime, anywhere! Plus the 370 and GTR are in the last movie !

Um... what's wrong with smoking crack and watching the fast and furious?

Don't limit ppl to their age. Everyone's different. We like what we like.

Okay back on topic... oh wait...

haha, I'm 35

they have progressively gotten less cheesy (car wise) but they are still good for some facepalm moments

...last one was less about cars actually, which is why I think I liked it...Eva Mendes is in the next one...must watch!

Thats pretty much the job application I look for when I apply for a job. If that's not on the application, then that job is below My standards.

Yes the movies were great for their time. Tokyo drift is my fav.

I was street racing before the show ever came out and in the scene with the import tuning and showing and winining many competitions. My best was winning best of show and getting an interview on SpeedTv.

When F&F came out it spurned everyone get an import and to go racing. Thus really killing the scene due to wrecks and laws banning any thing of the like.

I know there is an underground scene now, but I am not interested in loosing my license or car now. Still like to race and show, but at the track and in moderation. I have my xbox360 and Forza, and Need for speed to take out my driving agressions.

I like the f&f movies. I grew up with them and they have matured a bit as well. I was only 13 when the first came out.

We Should all support the movie though because little known fact is Paul walker owns a 370z

I remember when the first one came out, I like you was into the scene and remember being extremely happy to see a movie come out that was on a topic of interest that not many knew about. Yes some bad stuff came out of it like in Houston we had car meet raids that landed some people in jail for no reason and APC wings that were the only mod on older 4 door sedans. But a lot of stuff came out of it also, like the scene growing, carshows like Nopi and HIN which have lead to bigger shows, and now a big market for performance parts which wasnt there before.

I thought when those movies came out they all sucked. It wasn't till the fourth installment that i saw some type of plot building that made me want to go back and re-watch them. Then i thought... not bad. I went and saw fast 5. Though i was disappointed in the amount of cars, racing or lack there of... I thought they maximized the storyline and turns out the series in a whole, though cheesy, in many aspects is a shytload of fun to watch. Cars, guns, action, hot chix and illegal racing... it doesnt get much better than that for near-brainless superficial entertainment with cool yet mediocre heist sub-plots.

I embrace F&F for what it is... JDM/muscle fanboi action fluff and its cool when in the mood.

Maybe in Tx, but the scene had been hot in the east coast since the 82 mitsu conquest/starion/ 1.8 corolla and supra. Thats the car that set it off in the east
