Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: A guilty pleasure with excess horsepower, The Fast and the Furious efficiently combines time-honored male fantasies (hot cars, hot women, hot action) into a vacuous plot of crystalline purity. It's trash, but it's fun trash, in which a hotshot Los Angeles cop named Brian (Paul Walker) infiltrates a gang of street racers suspected of fencing stolen goods from hijacked trucks. The gang leader is Dom (Vin Diesel), ex-con and reigning king of the street racers, who lives for those 10 seconds of freedom when his high-performance "rice rocket" (a highly modified Asian import) hurtles toward another quarter-mile victory. Racing is street theater for a lawless youth subculture, and Dom is a star behind the wheel--charismatic, dangerous, and protective toward his sister Mia (Jordana Brewster), who's attracted to Brian as the newest member of Dom's car-crazy team.
Director Rob Cohen treats this like Roman tragedy for MTV junkies, pushing every scene to adrenaline-pumping extremes; when his camera isn't caressing a spectrum of nitrous oxide-enhanced dream machines, it's ogling countless slim 'n' sexy race babes. The undercover-cop scenario cheaply borrows the split-loyalty theme perfected in Donnie Brasco; a rival Asian gang adds mystery and menace; and digital trickery is cleverly employed to explore the fuel-injected innards of the day-glo racecars. It's about as substantial as a perfume ad, but just as alluring, and for heavy-metal maniacs of any age, Diesel's superblown '69 Charger proves that Detroit muscle never goes out of style. --Jeff Shannon

Many people did not like this film but its solid enough in my opinion to interest some. Besides, there are very few original movies this days and I'm not saying this is one but people should not expect that much from studios these days.

Never would have figured it but I like Vin Diesel. If you're into racing cars (which I'm not) This should do it for you. Vin is the numero uno street racer and the cops are using an undercover man to bring down a truck hijacking ring. They go through several engine rebuilds and at least a hundred tanks of nitrous oxide to get to the conclusion and prove that crime doesn't pay. Alot of good driving stunts and a lot of action. Not Academy Award material but a good watch.

When The Fast And The Furious came out street racing had pretty much been underground. Years before this movie people had been modifiying their cars in the "import" style and racing them on the streets. This before the civic was as common to modify as a ford mustang. Seeing a car "tricked" out on the street was still something out of the ordinary and new. At the time there weren't any real car movies going about other than gone in 60 sec's (freaking awsome btw!) and that was about it. When The Fast ... Read More
