what a stupid film. why is everyone is this film:
- Bil-lingual
- A fully trained mechanic
- Stupidly rich
- A professional stunt driver
This films not even good, theres no story line, they just drive around and skid for the sake of it. the 1st F&F was pretty good, second one average, this one takes the p***.

Because it's a mooooovie!
If the characters in the film only spoke Japanese, were poor, and were crap drivers, there'd be no premise for the film.
The film was pretty pap, but it was about 1000x better than the steaming pile of dog-turd that was the second movie

Yeah wouldn't be the same if they were all poor and driving novas. Actually that would prob make a better film, imagine the outtakes, trying to drift around roundabouts and fliping them lol

nah it should be set in england, Ace Cafe, London. i was down there last month on jap night, and god knows whats had been done to it, but some1 was driving this done up mini metro. anyway, the car hadnt been touched, only the engine, and seriously this metro was way faster than any of the scoobys or skylines or evos, it was so quick! You could have the storey of a young guy who just totally loves cars and inherits this crap old nova off his nan and does it up to be amazingly quick, races for pink slips gets some good cars full on works his way up into the car modding scene and becomes really respected. think that wld be an awesome story. Then one day hes racing, hes in the slower car but hes winning the race coz he really just has a feel for it and him and the car have become one, when some chav pulls on to the strip drunk not knowing whats going on ... WAIT FOR IT.... in the very SAME nova that the guy started with. Theres a terrible collision, and being a british film, our guy dies, and no one lives happily every after.
oh man i'm good. if any1 feels like contributing to the storey feel free. hell with it, lets just write a group story!

You missed out the obligatory montage (see team america - even rocky had a montage

) of him modifing the nova by riveting and glueing the crappy second hand bodykit on, and then driving around with the bodykit in primer grey for about 5 months.

It's quite cheesy but I enjoyed it for that reason. Only fast and furious film I've seen
