A pretty decent movie with some enjoyable car scenes. Of course some of them are far-fetched but that's why it's a movie. The car race was cool but the downside is that it's the only one; I wanted to see more car races. The rest of the car scenes were like car chases; not really racing which I wanted to see more of. I thought both Vin Diesel and Paul Walker played their parts well. Even if you are not a car person (I'm not), this movie will still entertain.

I loved this movie and the only reason it didn't get all five stars is because ( spoiler alert!!!!) how in the world can you kill off Michelle in the first minutes ?

  It offers an attractive getaway route from self-importance, snark, and chatty comedies about male bonding. Here, stick shifts do the talking.

  Fast & Furious is the first film since the original to be smart about how far to stretch logic without sacrificing the desired macho swagger and revved-up emotions.

  The reunion is fun and frantic, like the original on double nitro.

  Fast & Furious is, in a very bizarre way, a thing of gasp-inducing artistry to watch, even if you're not a member of the NASCAR, gear-head, street-racing crowd.

  No matter what, it's safe to say that this entirely acceptable retooling of the franchise makes for a satisfying experience for those who enjoy four-wheeled chases, hot bodies, hot cars, and a tall dose of tough-guy machismo.

  I hope the producers bring Lin back for the fifth film and strip it down even more. They can lose all the human characters except Brian and Mia and simply call it F&F.

  It sticks to what the series does best, mixing souped-up cars with corny jokes.

  Succeeds because the action is supercharged in a style that recalls Mel Gibson's apocalyptic classic, "The Road Warrior." The characters are more than cartoonish, and the plot grips the road. But it's Diesel who provides the nitro injection

  The action scenes don't always get the balance between flash and danger right, but the movie remains agreeably dopey--presenting street-racing culture as a hotbed of colorful stereotypes and lipstick lesbianism--until a climax that just isn't there.

  By 2009, the franchise has nothing new to offer. The culture, through video games and reality television, has caught up to the series and surpassed it.

  I can see why Fast and Furious might be a smash as audiences look for escape from a broken economy. All those wheelies and power slides are designed to obliterate thought, not provoke it. Talk about a movie for its time.

  The stripped-down title gets at what we're really here for: the cars. Are they fast? Check. Are they furious? Yep.

  Brian and Dom could drive from L.A. to Mexico City and back blindfolded, but would require a GPS to find the zipper of a dress. The only time they smile here is when they are alone in a garage, tinkering with their dream cars.

  The end result, while it provides moments of kinetic entertainment, is too repetitive and uneven to be satisfying.
