Fast and the Furious: I actually put a lot of money into my car and I actually look after it, because of the money I've poured into it.
But this movie gives the image that money trees do exist in California, the way these guys throw the dollar around! Not one of them care! (ie. Tokyo Drift - Jap dude lends his car to an unknown American guy. American guy smashes it up in a car park, Jap dude befriends him and smiles.)
Anyway, list of things wrong with the movie that I noticed upon watching it for the first time:
1. Not one person waits for their turbo to cool down before switching off the engine.........ouch!
2. The first race, Paul Walker uses 2 shots of NOS and STILL can't get above 140mph to beat Vin. My car doesn't have NOS and it'll go up to 155mph quicker than that whole scene.
3. After said race, Vin breaks into speech with: "Granny shiftin, not double-clutchin like you should!"...............Eeeerrr, yeah, someone please tell me where during a drag race you need to 'double-clutch???'
4. The guy with the ass-kicking S2000 from race wars only had 1 full day to fit the WHOLE engine, yes, during that 1 day he was also cuffed by SWAT. So who and where the hell will fit an engine and tune a car in just 1 day!?!?!
5. At the end of the movie, Vin flips a 9 second car at top speed, no air bag or other safety features cushion his disastrous escapade.....But, good old Vinnie hops straight into a 10 second Supra and burns off toward Mexico.

Inspiration of everyricer, dream of every teen and thoughts of every chav.
The fast and The furious is filled with modified cars, hot girls and 1/4 mile drag races that last for 2 minutes.
The fast and The furious influenced the world in many ways:
-Made every JDM tuner a ricer.
-Made every teen a future ricer.
-After that every supra is faster than a ferrari.
-VW Jettas are beaten by S2000s
-Having a big gaping WANG and a Bonnet scoop makes your car faster in drag races.
-Dodge chargers can do wheelies but can't dosge trucks.

A movie about an undercover cop who tries to become a street racer to stop high speed truck hijackings. They race, somebody dies, it has a dramatic ending. I liked it.
but the reception...is so/so.
here's my thoughts.
its a good movie. the plot is not as deep as i wouldve liked, but its a fun movie to watch while chilling at home on a rainy day. it did fuel the import boom in the US and also street racing in Cali. but its not a car advertisement, its a MOVIE!! LOL
you cant blame a movie for its interpretation by the viewers!
its not supposed to be funny, or realistic, or whatever, its just an action/fun movie.

dude i just saw The Fast and the Furious yesterday, it wasnt a great plot but overall a good movie, and barring the misinterpretation of the movie that says "Go get an import car and lets go cook some rice" the cars actually looked cool

Jeff can run a mile in 4 1/2 minutes. Kevin always gets really mad and beats the shit out of people. Together, I'd probably consider them to be the fast and the furious.

1. Look at that fast and the furious spoiler on that Cavalier.
2. Hey, do you hear that fast and the furious exhaust on that Civic?

Bad movie about streetracing that caused millions of morons around the world to think streetracing is cool.
If you ever need proof that media *does* affect people's way of thinking, look no further than The Fast And The Furious.
