The Fast and the Furious 4

[Rusty*]

Well the first F&F was not to bad...unrealistic, but not to bad.
AS for the second and third...lets not go there.
The fourth has the right actor's back in it, but looks unrealistic still...
I might rent it some time, but definetly not going to be rushing out to see it.
It would be nice to see a realistic version of something like F&F.
Anyway if it's as good as the first then it's worth checking out.

Wow..there is a Hanna Montana Movie and you watched it?

No, I didn't watched its just that Hanna Montana(the movies or movie i dont know) sucks, and 2F 2F sucks just a bit more for me.

 

[niky]

They all sucked.

Then only good part of Tokyo Drift was Rhys Millen's driving. Wonderful drifting. And the acting wasn't as terrible as 2F2F... But seriously, the rest of the movie is pure garbage.

There are bits of road-wisdom in FnF that will probably haunt me for the rest of my life...

FnF:
1. hitting nitrous can blow the welds in your intake manifold.
2. SR20s go into Integras. Never mind the perfectly useable B18s they already come with.
3. Shooting a car with nitrous injection blows it up in technicolor.
4. Two ten second cars need nearly one minute to cover a quarter-mile.

2F2F
...forget enumeration... the whole movie was a disaster.

FnF3 TD
1. Continues the long and illustrious tradition of having a good ol' American homeboy fighting it out with devious "foreigners" (FnF - Chinese, 2F2F - Colombians, TD - Japanese gangstas! Wow!)... was I the only person who noticed the only non-criminal... well... non-gangster characters were all American? Mind-boggling!
2. Juvenile Delinquent with counts of destruction of property against him... allowed to leave the country? To go to Tokyo? Damn, I should break stuff more often.
3. Of course, the good ol' American homeboy always has to have a black sidekick. That's keeping it real, yo.
4. Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s. Acceleration due to drifting = 100 times that. Otherwise, how do you get to the bottom of the mountain faster than the guy that fell off the mountain in front of you?

FnF4 (and I haven't even watched it yet!)
1. Apparently, even a dualie can drive faster than a big rig while in reverse. Wow.
... I'm sure I'll find more to complain about when I do watch it. I won't bother going to the cinema for this one, but since Vinnie is in it, and there's a rare Ford RS200 in it somewhere, I might watch it on video just to see those parts.

To see it be blown up?

 

[niky]

To see it be blown up?

Dear lord... I might just faint if that happens...

Of course, if it turns out that it's riding on 20" wheels and has a honking stereo inside it... that'd just be putting it out of its misery. 💡

 

[Blackbird.]

This whole conversation is ridiculously hilarious

 

[MrSmith]

The 3rd didnt have any actors that I wanted to see.

To me. If the movie starts with good actors (Paul Walker, Vin Diesel).

There - Fixed that for you 👍

LOL Forget you.

LOL! I know your just stating whats in the movie but it just cracks me up to see someone so eloquently describing it..
I suppose they throw realism out the window for these series, would be nice to see a more realistic version of FnF. As for MR. Diesel he is the best actor out of all the FnF movie's...although MR. Walker has his merits, he suits the Car scene better than MR. Diesel, just my opinion.
Peace,👍

Thats true. The drive is in his genes. Theres gas running through his name.

So I wonder why Highschool musical is so popular these days.
But other " car" movies like Gone in Sixty seconds ( damn fake jump) do par up to real life likes. What if FnF though of putting a Nissan engine into a Integra but not actually getting a 240sx and putting the F20c or the F22C1 instead of the SR20.

I'd rather a movie be not perfect i n a perfectly sur-real way.

I won't complain about Speed Racer, because it's sur-realism to the max. You know it's not supposed to be real.

Die Hard... crash a car into a helicopter? No problem. Die Hard is Disney on Ice for adults. Mad Max? The Matrix? It's the Icecapades. Whoopee!

Fast and the Furious? They ground the movie in real racing. In the real import tuning scene... with real import tuners and personalities. They have consultants from industry, tuner-guys, racer-guys, magazine-writers... and yet their scripts read like they were half-written by 13 year olds who couldn't be bothered to read any wikipedia articles (not a good source, but better than nothing) about the cars.

Racing a Jetta on nitrous against a twin-turbo RX7 for pink slips? Racing a 350Z with an old Mustang with no apparent rear suspension modifications? (It was amusing... everytime he spun out, they just tweaked the engine some more... classic!)

I like my unreality. I love Vinnie Diesel. I even watched the Pacifier. I'm willing to accept the outlandish and the bizarre. But FnF, I can only watch in snatches. It's too painful. It's like watching a movie made about your high school life, except they're portraying that snotty, pimply faced kid who sat in the first row and annoyed everyone as the most popular girl in school and candidate for prom queen, and somehow your basketball team always scores over a hundred points a game, even when, in real life, they were all five-foot five and wore glasses. Oh, and even if you were with the "in-crowd", they've got Chris Tucker playing you. For comic relief.

Thank goodness the current crop of comic-book movies are more true to the source material. The FnF franchise could learn a lot from that. Heck, they could learn a hell of a lot just from watching Initial D.

Ohh yeah, I remember that part.
Thats messed up.
SR20+Honda=👎

New Trailers!

 

[prisonermonkeys]

And people said DIE HARD 4.0's rolling car sequence was unrealistic ... I suppose the money-shot of the women making out was purely to distract audiences from the lousy CGI, sheer impossibility of the sequence and terrible acting even in the trailer. The first trailer, with the sequence where they hijack the land-train was actually pretty imaginitive, but this one just reeks of justifying an expensive budget by padding out the action sequences and appealing to teenagers with needless faux-lesbianism.

Vomit, vomit, vomit.

 

[McLaren]

I got to give them props, though, for actually bringing back the original cast. Quite a few movies never do such a thing. Supposed to be having Tyrese & Sung from the other 2 movies as well.

I'll see it, though, b/c many of my friends think its no longer about the cars & more about the action.

Solja boy is actually ruining it for me. I want to see DB: Evolution and The Legend of Chun Li more than this movie now. But who knows...

 

[McLaren]

Saw it, and honestly, it's the best out of the bunch merely because it really doesn't focus on racing anymore. As for the cast, where was Tyrese and I'm pissed off at what they did to Michelle Rodriguez. 👎

Movie itself had some questionable auto-enthusiast scenes, and a plot that you might get lost in til' the end. The ending chase was actually pretty nice.

But, Jordana Brewster....

 

[nk4e]

Did it come out already?

 

[McLaren]

I caught a 12:01AM showing.

 

[Lucas]

I'm sure I saw the Plymouth RoadRunner Hammer at 1:34, rolling
Anyways, it is already out in Argentina. Me and some friends are going to see it today. They think it will be good, but I just want to see it because of some cars, like the RS200, which doesn't seem to have been "pimped". Overall, I know already it is going to suck.

 

[McLaren]

There are a lot of nice cars, but honestly, don't expect to see too much of them, esp. the more exotic ones like the RS200.

 

[tfujiwara]

I can feel even more disapointments already!....I'll bet the whole theater parking lot are full of these, no doubt.

..I got nothing to do today so I might go see it with my friends. 💡

 

[Lucas]

That used to be a Toyota Celica... ONCE.

 

[MrSmith]

Hey, thats my cousins friends aunts brothers midget friend clides brothers other friends aunts boyfriends car.

 

[TB]

You're your aunts boyfriend? Eww.

Quick review..

We went to see it last night and I must say it was much better than I expected. Its easily the 2nd best movie of the series. LOTS of explosions, special effects, wrecks, muscle cars, and racing.

The first half of the movie truly reminds me of the game Midnight Club: LA with all the technology into the racing. Its actually quite cool how they set the races up in this movie. There are a couple cheesy parts toward the end but thats nothing unusual for the series.

We dont regret seeing it in the theater at all. If you liked the first one you will like this one. 👍

 

[Lucas]

I wasn't able to see it =( They ran out of tickets by the time me and my friends got to the cinema, so we just went to see Gran Torino instead. Great movie! 👍

 

[Patrik]

Saw it at the theater yesterday, and what can I say? I guess if you combine every unrealistic movie there is, it still wouldn't be as unrealistic as this...

Wheelie on street road with street low profile tires? A street car running on nitromethane? Wheelie when downshifting while being at speed in the dessert? Cars going 200mph in a small and dark tunnel? Cars having 20 gears? Countless of crashes that would definitely be fatal in real life? A 1/4 mile apearing being as long as afull mile? 15 seconds being 30 seconds? The list just never ends... BUT, the cars and girls were hot!
