There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

I did not the like the first movie of The fast and the furious. I did like 2 fast 2 furious. I also liked fast the furious Tokyo drift. But this is better. Fast five is better. And Furious 7 is also better. This movie has a great story line. It also has great acting. It is very fast past. This is one of the best action movie of the last decade. 6.6 is a good ratting. But this is such a great movie that 6.6 is underrating it. If you like acting movies than you should see this movie. It is a great movie. You should see this movie. It is a great movie. I give it 9. It is so cool. If you like action movies you will like it. This is a very cool movie. See it.

Vin Diesel and Paul Walker made one "The Fast and the Furious" movie together, a movie that was debatably decent – at best – back in 2001. Eight years (and two other "Fast and Furious" movies) later, Universal Pictures decides a reunion is in order, and whether that decision came out of a genius inkling or total desperation, it worked – to the tune of an April box office record and the restart of a movie franchise that was always meant to be."Fast & Furious" doesn't give this series a facelift (a new paint body/paint job? I'm not good with car metaphors), but time has worked in its favor. Director Justin Lin (spin-off "The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift") definitely has a more modern sense of style that makes this movie feel made in another era compared to the original "Fast and the Furious" and "2 Fast 2 Furious," which definitely show their age. Part of this is thanks to improvements in CGI and green screen technology, but Lin also employs a grittier, hand-held approach. From the first few minutes of the film, which shows Dominic Toretto (Diesel), girlfriend Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) and the rest of their gang trying to hijack a tank truck in the Dominican Republic, it's clear that visually speaking, "Fast & Furious" has greatly improved over its predecessors. In terms of the story – that's another matter.The same situations and plot schematics from previous films unsurprisingly show up in "Fast & Furious." O'Conner is working for the feds again causing his superiors' headaches and he and Toretto are again placed at odds with each other as they're after the same Mexican drug lord, albeit with different tactics in mind. They even must race each other to get in with the bad guy. All this is to be expected, however, given the "reunion" aspect of the story. Plenty of dialogue tilts toward a reminiscing vibe in hopes of conjuring up fond memories for people who loved the original. The film thinks and acts as though it's building on that movie's "legacy," but the reality is that it's trying to erase the previous two films a bit and fix its own trajectory. Fortunately, it does, though not nearly as well as it thinks it has.Writer Chris Morgan – also brought over after his work on "Tokyo Drift" – demonstrates a sound understanding of what made the first movie good, and that's the Dom-Brian relationship. He constructs a new up-and- down journey for the two of them, much of which hinges on past feelings. Morgan devotes the downtime of the script to this relationship. It goes beneath the surface, which the first films (and especially "2 Fast 2 Furious") failed to do. Quick scenes of a brooding Diesel as Dom reflects on the anti-climactic loss of Letty (the news is just dropped in as exposition) don't generate an emotional response, and you can guess exactly what O'Conner will say as he tells Mia (Jordana Brewster) why he let Dom go in the first film, but these moments, cliché as they are, do help endear us to the characters a little more. More important than anything, the superficial MTV Spring Break vibe has dissipated (aside from one party scene early on and a little too much Pitbull music). The film is far more respectful of its female characters, even if there aren't enough of them in important roles. Mia is not an important role – she's the men's emotional sounding board.Of course, the action is still the most important part of these films, and Lin brings the kinetic energy that keeps "Fast & Furious" engaging. He does employ some of the same race and chase sequence techniques (the CGI view inside the engine sadly returns) that previous directors employed in their films (showing the speedometer, gear shifts, feet moving on pedals, etc.) but it's a little smoother and delivers more mouth-agape moments. Unfortunately, the climactic tunnel chase is dark, computer-heavy and a little disappointing on the whole.Putting all details aside, "Fast & Furious" achieves what was undoubtedly the most critical objective for its producers and Universal: get this once-promising franchise back on track. It does all the dirty work necessary to get its main characters back together and on the same page so that future films can take them in potentially exciting new directions.~Steven CThanks for reading!

this 4th installment in the series is quite underrated i have to say i have seen all of the fast furious films when i first saw this i hated it & thought it was boring because it is slow paced unlike other films but when i saw it the second time my opinion changed & i enjoyed it for what it was this one has a better story just like the first one,this film gave birth to the prequel series of fast & furious the story of the film happens around or after 2 fast & 2 furious.i just have a question how the hell did Jordana Brewster looked so cute here plus the hairstyle was great.one of the biggest things about this is the return of Vin diesel a lot of people though the series are over but Vin diesel just made a huge comeback in film industry with this one the action is nice here but the film itself is very dark & sad at times.for those who don't know Letty goes missing in this film & everyone thinks she is dead what happens is that Letty was working for Brian & Fbi secretly then she joins Braga & his gang but when the gang finds out there is a mole inside they get rid of her she escapes in a car but in the accident looses her memory in some hospital the international gang of Owen Shaw grabs her then she works with them it can be seen in fast n furious 6 later on Dom rescues Letty & defeating Ownen Shaw these events leads up to the emerging of super villain Dekard Shaw(Jason Statham) in furious seven 2015 story:plot is very simple here Brian joins Fbi & Dom returns in the big city together these 2 bring down a notorious drug runner Braga.Dom is hunted by the law here in the end when he gets arrested & being sent to jail Mia & Brian help him escape is one of the best scenes ever filmed in the series,fast five 2011 was nice but this one is betterthe opening oil tanker robbing scene is fantastic its like a bond film even better & more epic Vin Diesel is a insane man if he actually drove that fast on those mountain roads that's all i have to say.my view of this film is you don,t have to look deeper into this film to understand it it is just like a usual film only with a tight bonded narrative that blends easily with action.Overall Fast & Furious 2009 is a well made film so just grab a copy and enjoy it my rating is 7/10.Recommended

Vin Diesel and Paul Walker are back, and they are having to work together even though they kind of don't really like each other still. The movie basically is all about the bad guys and the good guys being Walker and Diesel where both of them have the old shared enemy thing going on and have to help each other to achieve their goal. The plot kind of plays out like a crime thriller but with lots of cars, in fact I even felt at times like the cars were not as important in this one as before, they don't talk about them as if they are humans like they have before. The reasons I think this movie is poor I will go into but first I must say if you haven't seen the one's before this then go and watch them or this will make no sense.Let's start with the actors and the star attractions to the show, Paul Walker and Vin Diesel return in the style they left us with last. The duo have a strange problem in which I felt was actually the director and writers fault, giving them lines that make them look really dumb and obvious although neither actor does that well in this. The film has a lot of poor acting throughout and though it definitely isn't really dislikeable, still just far from good enough in this already high grossing franchise. The thing is I didn't hate this movie far from it in fact it isn't actually bad, but for me it is too close to being bad for it to even break average, the whole story is pretty basic but the people behind the scenes are the one's who make it a let down.Justin Lin is the man in the directors chair and for me he is again poor, the vision he sets out is just too like I said before, obvious, and he turns some moments which could have been good into over the top action and acting. Chris Morgan writes again and the collaborating between Lin and Morgan just is not going well, the dialogue is messy and like I said the whole plot is set out in such a generic and basic way. This movie will try to draw you in with all its action and big chases and races but all of it is false things to make you excited and I refused to be won over by disappointing work behind the scenes. Now the fourth instalment is probably somewhere so far into the series around third in my rankings, just about better than Tokyo Drift but below the first two. If you're interested in the series and have maybe already really connected with certain characters then maybe you will enjoy this more than I did and although I didn't really not enjoy it, I just felt it too much of a mess to be a film I could look back on with positivity. What Justin Lin tries to create is a movie that is fast but sombre and contains a whole lot of one-liners to try and impress, some come off well but the majority do not and overall I didn't feel pleased enough by the lines.So The Fast and Furious marches on and although this does it fast and furious, they forgot to make it actually good. One weird thing I felt about this was that actors like Walker and Vin Diesel are getting better as their respective characters and for the first time in the series since the first maybe, I could feel a little connection with them if only in select points. Finally I would recommend this to of course fan's of the series but also those who like big stunts and a bit of action + fast cars too, it feels a bit like a movie that someone attached NOS too and then flung into a cinema screen full pelt.
