I was glad they used more muscle in this one, both old and new.

Loved that guys comment too...

"Hey nuts*ck, muscle beats import every time."

I'd give it an 8/10, worth the $10.

I see Paul Walker didnt take acting classes in his time off...

I watched this the other night at work, nothing tops off a boring day worse than a crappy movie.

It's merely entertainment and escapism for those who do not have a "Project Violet" to fulfill their dreams. :

Default realism.....................ha

i havent seen this yet but find it funny that people pick holes and complain that its drivel, im a big movie fan and have seen all the great car chase movies. vanishing point- awesome but plot is surealism drivel. the driver-awesome but porno dialogue. bullit_ultra awesome but how many hubcaps can fall off two cars?(seriously count them!gone in sixty seconds(the real one not the nic cage stinker)greatest 40min carchase in the world but hb halicki makes vin diesel look like deniro! two lane blacktop-plotless,the seminal madmax-yeah the blower switch is totally more realistic than an exhaust made by motec!the point of these movies is escapism not doco realism or oscar worthy critical acclaim its a popcorn movie and the f&f franchise is like double butter extra salt. ps smokey & the bandit deserved an oscar though i want to be just like the bandit when i grow up

I thought it was terrible:

A few questions:

1) On Tokyo drift at the end they have Vin Diesel with a Roadrunner saying "I won it from my friend Han" yet had Han for a few seconds at the start and no mention of racing Vin Diesel.
2)What happened to the black guy from 2 fast 2 furious??

Basically I don't understand where the connection is between 2 fast 2 furious and Tokyo drift is! They didn't connect the dots.

Most of all they didn't kill Paul Walker I hate that crappy acting son of a .

Stop trying to make crappy story lines!! Why can't they just be racing for cash and pride and not all that other .

Fast & Furious & Tokyo Drift were good

2 fast 2 furious n this one sucked

Opinions are always going to be varied with movies. Some people criticise a movie for being unrealistic. ITS A MOVIE, not Reality

I watched it friday afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed it. sure there's some things that could of been better but for the fourth movie in the franchise, it's superb

for those who didn't like it, tell us what you would change/add in to the movie if it was your movie

As apposed to any other car film around today?

Actually the faults that Plague F&F have plauged any other car based film. Inacurate, over the top and far fetched...

(*Grabs Flame suit)

...ie Madmax, the supercharger switch, the fact he was traveling around looking for fuel in a supercharged 351...collecting leaded from a truck...

...or running on empty, creating a new GTHo replica out of scraps, with NOS!!!

then there is Gone in 60 seconds...

Han raced Dom prior to the events in Fast and Furious. It didn't need mentioning. If you'd seen Tokyo Drift you could just assume seeing as Han was in Fast and Furious.

Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson) from that 2 fast 2 furious who really cares. That film was rubbish. Its like it wasn't even connected to the series at all. Tokyro Drift was more connected to the series by having Dom in it for 2 seconds at the end.

I agree with you 1 and 3 were the best. 2 and 4 both sucked.

I would pay double the admission fee if they built the movie AROUND the charger.

Watched all the previous 3 and own all of them on DVD. I will be seeing this after the school holidays. Nothing worse than going to the cinemas when it's packed full of kids.

Amen to that.
Just racing to avoid bad guys and beat other racers. No cop work except cop chases. Starting to sound like a Need For Speed game.
A couple of scenes to include an engine build and mods being carried out.

Title should be :

Fast and Furious:
Supercharged.
