Parts 1 and 3 weren't bad, but 2 I have a hard time watching. Just seeing a Evo cruising down the interstate in reverse or a drop top Eclipse with 20's hanging with those other cars is to much for me. Will definitely watch 4 though, but not for the superior acting

I think in terms of movies, the third one was the best, well except for the final drift scene. The rest of the movie (minus a few parts) didnt seem as contrived and goofy as 1 & 2, but again the ending of the movie was awful. Im referring to the drift part, although the very end with Vin Deisel was pretty bad.

Yes the movies are lame, yes they have riced out cars, yes they have bad acting, but really how many other car-driven movies are out there? It entertains for at least a few viewings, I try not to critique them too much.

I hope you are talking about the classic 1974 one, not the terrible movie Nicolas Cage made in 2000.

My friends STi was in the movie. He was at some club/meet type setting with his car setup as one of the meet cars. He was right behind Vin Diesel in some of the shots too. I asked if he got pics but no cameras were allowed and they were strict on taking out cell phones.

+1 sad to say I watched Tokyo Drift the other night on HBO on demand. I don't care how bad the plot is some of those cars are awesome.

Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift is awesome!

has all the right ingredients
1. hot cars
2. hot girls
3. hot driving scenes (movie style)
4. comedy (by way of ridiculous plot and acting)

if you hate on tokyo drift without watching it you're depriving yourself of a good time

if you hate on tokyo drift after watching it ... dude lighten up! its hollywood when is anything they do true to real life?
