Editorial Review: Product Description: Universal The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift - HD-DVD/DVD Combo From the makers of The Fast and the Furious and 2 Fast 2 Furious comes the highest-octane installment of the hit movie franchise built for speed! When convicted street racer Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) tries to start a new life on the other side of the world, his obsession with racing sets him on a collision course with the Japanese underworld. To survive, he will have to master driftinga new style of racing where tricked-out cars slidethrough hairpin turns, defying gravity and death for the ultimate road rush. With more mind-blowingstunts and heart-pounding racing sequences than ever, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift puts you in the drivers seat. "Strap yourself in for a blistering, super-charged ride."-- Pete Hammond, MAXIM Amazon.com: The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift has all the elements that spelled success for its predecessors: Speed, sex, and minimal dialogue. The plot doesn't need explication; it's a nonsensical series of confrontations and standoffs that serve to get us from one race to another. Tokyo Drift can most accurately be described as a visual poem about screeching tires, crunching fiberglass, and sleek female skin, set to a killer soundtrack of Japanese pop and hip-hop. The actors are only needed for tight close-ups of narrowed eyes or sweaty hands tightly gripping gearshifts, though Sung Kang, Better Luck Tomorrow, stands out as a vaguely philosophical hoodlum with deadpan charisma. The curved bodies of the cars and the luscious flesh of the women are both shot with a fetishistic hunger. The "drift" style of racing--in which the cars are allowed to slide in order to take sharp turns at high speeds--grabs your eyes; there's a strange, spectral beauty to rows of cars sliding sideways down a mountain road at night. Also starring Lucas Black (Friday Night Lights) as our wheel-happy hero; Bow Wow (Roll Bounce) as the scam-artist comic relief; and martial arts legend Sonny Chiba (Kill Bill) as a yakuza big shot. --Bret Fetzer Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - The Story Continues...With as many turns as the original, Tokyo Drift continues the story seamlessly and delivers all the hot cars, and hot driving you expect from a Fast and Furious title. Rating: - Reality CheckPlease allow me to put in my two cents as an Army brat who went to school in Japan from nursery school all the way to grade 12. Not once did I wear a school uniform or have a Japanese-speaking instructor. Nor did we ever wear uwabaki, for that matter. Military dependents go to American school which look pretty much like stateside schools. Why would they ever put an American in a Japanese classroom when it would only create a distraction and slow things down? Movies rarely reflect reality. Rating: - good fantasy raceUnless the movie show many strange behavior about the Japan culture, the director make a great rescue in the Fast & Furios sequel. Great CGI and photo shoot work, make this work to enjoy a good action movie. The bonus in the DVD, show a good work and have complete material to learn the tricks than they use to film the movie. I'm particularly like, because is not the clasic mafia, war action movie. Is about the cars and the speed. Noting more. Rating: - Meaningless and do more harm than goodI watched this DVD just because I have watched Initial D (the same car racing / drifting gerne) animation. I watched it just because I wanted to know how it could be shot with real people. To my disappointment, I found it was a very useless theme. There is no actual reason for this drifting/racing. I guess that is a teenage thing -- anger. I believe a lot of 1-star had been giving to this film and I am not going to eleborate any more. I found it has a real bad influence to anyone ... Read More Rating: - Better than I expected.This movie was great. I watch many time, then I began to try drifting on my own car. It didn't work out so well and now I'm in a major law suit with the director and producer of this film. Browse for similar items by category:
