An entertaining no-brainer

Rating: 6/10 (17 March 2003)

"Fast And The Furious" is nothing revolutionary, even the car scenes aren't as good as I'd hoped for, but you just have to like the world these characters are living in. Fast cars equals having gorgeous women at every corner (loved the sexy Michelle Rodriguez) and dodging cops all day long.
The acting's nice, the cars look good(but a far cry from great since, with the great exception of Diesel's 900 horse power monster, they all look too much alike), and the women doubly so, but the plot in this movie is just the glue that binds together. Some compare this movie to "Point Break". Please, the only thing they have in common is that the guy is an undercover cop that lets the "bad guy" go free. A good popcorn movie, nothing more. 6/10
