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

Remember, this is not an Oscar caliber film, just don't put on your thinking cap, and you will enjoy it as much as I did. By the way, Sung Kang defiantly deliver, but the main guy... not so much.

This movie delivers all the races and crashes you could possibly desire, and a little more. The Drifting was really impressive. I recommend this movie to anyone who like auto racing.

Great movie full of action that actually has the dialogue to keep the audience interested. Great storyline, very well written. Has the dialouge and action, suspence to keep the audience interested and to want to watch it again!

this movie isn't as good as 2F2F, or the first FF, or even close to part 4 in the series of FF movies,
but it is still a must have!
