what are you trying to do?!

Rating: 5/10 (21 February 2003)

i am really surprised at this movie. this was a whole lot worse than i had anticipated. yea sure it was pretty cool what with all the races and the heist and all but theatrically it wasn't there. maybe it was just me watching it on a tiny bus tv system but i definitely didn't enjoy it as much as i thought i would. i love action movies. i love movies with race cars. but somehow this really didn't cut it for me. i mean i kinda got what the storyline was. it wasn't a big secret or anything but it was so superficial that i had absolutely no incentive to follow it. even with romantic comedies i know the guy always gets the girl but somehow i find it so relieving when he does! but with the fast and the furious there was absolutely no satisfaction at the end. the people who made the trailer definitely did the wise thing by not putting in the "plot" into the trailer. leaving it out probably did more good than harm. i would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to just sit and watch a movie. no thinking involved. just sit back, relax, and watch it.
