2Fast2Furious

Who's in it: Paul Walker, Tyrese, Eva Mendes, Cole Hauser

What's it about: Brian(Walker) is back. After being caught on the run, he's dragged into another police investagation. Word on the street is that Carter Verone(Hauser) is selling drugs and about to leave the country for good with all of his money. He races to get a job for Verone with his old friend Roman(Tyrese). With Monica(Mendes) on their side, the duo only have to find the evidence. Verone refuses to go down that easily though. It's up to Brian, Roman, and their street racing friends to put Verone behind bars.

What I Think: I don't think that this was better than the first Fast and Furious. I definitely miss Vin Diesel. I think that him being in the first one really made the movie what it was. Ludacris, who was also in this movie, was great. I think he has alot of talent! Walker was alot more leanient this time and I thought it allowed for him to be more of his character. Tyrese was hilarious! Mendes was alright. There weren't many scenes with her and I guess that really messed with me. The cars were awesome. I also loved the effects that they did. Walker really has the mind of a street racer!

The Fast and the Furious

The Fast and the Furious

Who's in it: Paul Walker, Vin Diesel, Rick Yune

What's it about: Undercover detective in training Brian O'Connor(Walker) is trying to catch a group of theives by getting into the street racing crowd. He gets in good with the top racer Dom(Diesel) after he saves him from a cop raid during a night race. Johnny Tran(Yune), the leader of the Chinese racers, is suspected of the robberies, but Brian needs to be certain in order to finally get the job that he has always wanted but isn't sure if it's worth ruining his newfound friendship with Dom and his racing family.

What I Think: I've never been fond of racing movies, but this is the start of the series of The Fast and the Furious. Eli and I are going to be watching them all before going to see the fourth one in theatres. I thought that the storyline was pretty good. I most of the cares in the movie. They were entertaining to watch. It's was no Red Line thank God. I loved to watch Vin Diesel. He's so good looking. Walker wasn't bad either. As for acting, it was alright. Not the greatest performances but definitely not the worst.
