Default Fast & the Furious

I just saw it an hour ago & the cars in it were great. There's an oriental guy who has a Black/Red NOS Stook. He race's this guy in a Jetta & beats him sensless. There's a Veilside RX-7 that Vin Deisel drives. Lot's of Civic's, Integras, a couple Skylines & one BAD Supra & Dodge Charger! The story is somewhat weak & the subplot is flimsy too. But the cars & the racing kept me interested. First class stunt driving. Not a bad $5 spent.

I'm glad he beats the Jetta. Imagine all those
VW guys wetting their pants if the Jetta won. W

I hear there is a white S2K with pin striping that just sits around in the background doing nothing...

WOW, you only spent $5!!! You must've either gone to a matinee or used a student discount. Can't find anywhere in LA that'll let you in for $5.

Here is an excellent review:

Best quote:
Dominic Toretto (Diesel) lives by his own code, which dictates souping up Japanese sports cars and driving them three times the speed limit simply because he can. And if you don't think that makes him an American hero, Jack, then take your spindly ass and your minivan back to Communist Russia.
