Wow. Finally Hollywood does something truly original. This movie is guaranteed to be unlike anything you have ever seen before. First of all, the utterly original plot is about illegal street car racing-Has another movie ever been made about this subject?! I will bet my own crappy Toyota Corolla the answer is "NOT EVEN CLOSE."
Secondly, this movie stars Vin Diesel in a macho guy role. A first for this actor, who is really stretching his acting chops here by portraying a character so unlike his other movie roles. When I think of Vin Diesel the first thing that comes to mind is slow, British period dramas, not "fast", and certainly never "furious;" he just might get an oscar nod for taking such a daring role-the academy loves it when actors are cast against type!
If you think you've seen anything remotely like this movie before, shut up, because it is the most original movie ever made. Whoever said Hollywood was out of fresh ideas?
(Oops! I'm being told the picture I ran with this review is from some other movie entitled: "The Fast and the Furious." It clearly has nothing to do with this completely original film I just described. Sorry!)
