I've just watched this film and i have to say i was fairly impressed. The RS200 didnt make much of an appearence though which is a shame. And that ending blatantly left it open for a 5th TF&TF Installment.

I wont say too much as i dont want to spoil it for those who havent seen it yet (which is fair enough as its only came out today)

Good film, kind of a prequel to tokyo drift and a sequel to F&TF2 which was cever IMO.

Anyway, its definitely a film I would reccoment watching.

To be fair they are getting better.
You get the odd un-needed down change to get past someone, but they actually show some proper driving in the form of heel and toe before a biiiig powerslide across 3 lanes of traffic.

Its got a good story which is fine even if the driving bits do st all over themselves occasionally. Defo worth a watch. Also the nitrous still gives you ninehundred and eleventy million horsepower extra so your flung back in your seat to the point your holding onto the steering wheel so as not to go through the rear windscreen.

Wasn't really that impressed with the tunnel racing thought it was a bit crap


Nice new eye candy worthy of mention, of the female variety but also of the automotive variety.


some nice cars particular favorite was the Lambo 4x4 (am pretty sure thats what it was)

Mustangs didn't get enough screen time, but I did spot 4 different ones :geek:

I enjoyed the scene when they are both getting chased in Mexaco and Paul Walker is in the new Impreza.

The car stuff was better and so were the women, the story was the usual toss and I thought that the CGI graphics were particularly piss poor (very 1997).

Enjoyed it though, well worth a watch.

Did anyone else notice that Mia's Integra changed colour from white to black and then became an NSX?

Favourite car was definately Vinny D's Black 80's Cadillac thing at the beginning.

Saw this last night and loved it...
Definately the best attempt they've done since the original.

I went on public transport to see the film.
Much safer way of getting home wink

Not so sure, it'd have to take place concurrent/after Tokyo Drift. Loved the film did exactly what it said on the tin - brain out entertainment smile

"..my bad..."? I struggle to articulate the contempt that I have for people feeble-minded enough to copy this stupid and ignorant American expression.

Stop watching MTV: you arent an ignorant, uneducated American ghetto-dweller, are you?

Now sort yourself out!
