Where to Watch Fast & Furious
- OdinTheRavenKingApril 23, 2026## Synopsis Brian, magically working for the FBI, works with Don once again to take down a drug trafficking ring that killed Letty. ## Review This is the new era of Fast & Furious movies. Moving away from the street racing, to a larger world where cars are just a means of transportation and delivery than a plot point. Well I take that back a bit in this movie as a particular vehicle and it's components are a primary portion of the plot. I like seeing Paul Walker come back with Vin Diesel. They play really well together and I do think there is a particular glue they created for the rest of the characters. See Han from [[The Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift]] was nice as well since we knew that they had a history and we got to see a bit of it. The car racing/driving was fun. It is the main element in this that actually is worth while. The gun fights are a joke at best. Put them with the cars jumping through the desert and screaming through tunnels and you'll have a great time. ## [My Rating] The acting in this series really goes from this movie to no where else. It isn't great after this, it isn't bad after this. It just is. We also get the beginning of Gal Gadot's fame in the US in this movie and and I don't think she is anything spectacular. I'd rather Michelle Rodriquez play a bigger role. This movie is entertaining, but is nothing to write home about. While there might be 10+ movies, this movie is not a 10. It is a 7. ## [Parental Rating] There is a decent amount of GDs and that will push my Dad out quickly. My mom will also be out from the barely dress ladies at the different race events that are in every [[The Fast and the Furious]] movie. So very quickly, rejected by both.
- cyberbillpSeptember 21, 2025The band is back together. Crazy action, lots of testosterone. A solid entry furthering the Fast and Furious mythos. If you are watching the series, you can't miss this one. It could be argued that you could watch number one, then pick up with number four. While the intervening two movies are good, you wouldn't miss much if anything, in the series story. Those two are worth it though for the racing scene, particularly "Tokyo Drift", which features superb drift racing sequences. "Fast and Furious" revisits the themes established in the first film. It's quite good. Recommended.
