Fast & Furious Reviewed (2009) - Garage419

i wached all of the movies and the 3rd one sucked whos car drifts and makes no noise

This was an alright movie, but the ONLY good one was the first movie. Oh and another thing, The character of Mia is seen with the Acura Intrega from the first one, which is basically a crappy ricer Honda

I think this movie is the best of the series only because they tried to put some depth in the characters. The second movie was pretty terrible in my opinion, they had no drive to do any of the things they did in that film. This one had roughly the same plot but give the characters legitimate reasons to do what they do. On a technical side, anyone who has ever popped open the trunk of a G35 would know that there is no way in hell that one of those cases of drugs that Braga had them run from Mexico to America would ever fit.

Hi Matt, Love the show- keep up the good work. I am kind of waiting for the F&F to hit the theaters here in India- even though I know that its no Best Motoring. Wanted a small clarification Matt, you mentioned that Jordana Brewster's character drives a turbocharged NSX in the movie- but I just went through the May Issue of Import Tuner where they have done a special feature on the cars in the F&F, where the said Acura NSX-T (T for Targa I guess) is naturally aspirated (with a little intake/exhaust work) and putting down 295whp. It has got a lot of JDM NSX-R goodies, I even checked its owner's profile on MySpace and it doesn't have any mentioned of it being turbocharged. Is there anything in the movie that points towards the NSX being force-fed? I just hope that they haven't managed to dub a voice-over of a blow-off valve. A clarification on this would be welcome. Thanks.

Good episode as usual matt. But 1 4 2 3 in film order mmmmm not sure what about 1 4 3 2 as the bridge stunt in 2 is WRONG

hey matt you should do an episode about the good old supercars going retro and being reborn. examples- the GTR, the charger, the mustang, the challenger, the ZR1, the upcoming death of the viper. and so on...

matt, i was watching f&f 1, then when vin diseil wins in the begining then walks around to the back of the eclipse, there is a guy in a grease monkey suit, with the same sideburns, same beard, and laughs the exact same way as you, matt. so i was wondering? Was Matt Farah in The Fast and The Furiois?

Regarding the LM002, it was also in the movie "Toys" with Robin Williams. I remember seeing it as a kid when it first came out and thinking that the LM002 was the movie's only redeeming quality.

Yo Matt, thanks for this review man I was really skeptical of this movie. But if your taste in movies is anything like your taste in cars I trust your judgment bro. Hope ya had a good St Patricks day

matt once again...... how can you rank ff 2 at all?! it was as bad as transformers movie in regard to being a hour half long commercial. 1 3. 4? two sucked and so did this g419 show. but i will still represent g419 on the track. you should do a show on four cylinder oval track racing. peace.

how much did F&F pay you for this review? How many more of these movies can they possibly make.

I COmpletly agree with your order of Fast&Furious 1, (and I can only asume 4, 2 (wich was crap) and 3 wich I tried to watch... and achualy shut off only a few min into the film and havent seen sence.

the only annoying thing i can see in the preview is why dose the STI have a roof scoop like a rally car...if you aren't making a s**t load of dust or smoke it just makes the car look stupid. but other than that the cars look a lot better than 2f2f

I love how everyone says that think F&F sucks but they all know they are going to go see it.

Some times its fun to turn off you brain. Thats what F&F is about. Its a movie, Not Real. Thaks for the Heads Up on the movie,Yes I'll still go see it.

In SPADES! I love that saying. Much better than In ClUBS. FF1 and 3 are ok. I like the cars but if this is like 2 with the cartoon cars and aimless plot I will walk out. I watched 18 minutes of Redline on DVD before I fast forwarded. I have standards. lol

CGI ... blah. Did Smoky, Cannonball Run, Gumball Rally, Grand Prix, Le Mans, etc., have CGI? No. Just put a microphone at the air intake and exhaust and hire some drivers. "F" F&F ... I like the pic of the Kallenhard corner used as a background.

Why do you have a list on paper when you have a laptop in front of you?

Matt, come on you liked 2 better than 3? Once you get past the semi-stupid plot it is so much better that 2 Fast 2 CGI.

Why bother seeing F&F when you could just pay the same money to buy "Grand Prix" DVD. Sure the story is equally as pointless but CGI never existed back then. Between F&F and Transformers I dont need to be eye fucked anymore by CGI.
